The Amex Centurion card or Amex Black Card is the quintessential high end credit card used by celebrities. But you can now actually apply for the card online, kind of, you can apply to be invited. In other words American Express will still decide whether to send you an invite or not, but it is fun to try your luck.

I wonder if they waive fees to military members the same way they do so for AMEX Platinum… π€
Iβm happy with my Amex platinum gets me into the centurion lounge every time I travel to locations where there is one. Thanks credit stripper π
I can only apply for a job at McDonaldβs.
I think the majority that apply will get denied, but Amex will say you invited to the new Optio Card. π
did you apply Shifu?
edit: nvm
Requesting an invitation has been around for a few months. I think they are using this for potential invites to the "Optio" card.
Pay for a materialistic card lol
I prefer the term African American Express.
I like all the videos credit Shifu
Wow, crazy amount to even get the card.
pretty cool but like anything, if we're not getting value, we won't bother π
I going to play
If you're a Centurion cardholder or receive an invite, do you think you could request to receive the previous version of the card if you don't like the new design as much?
Hi can you please review the new United airlines credit card program? Thanks

I'm actually a proud member of the "Mile High Club" but I don't think I'll qualify for the American Express Centurion card unless they're accepting Mile High Club members who also have both the AmEx Platinum and Gold card like I do.
Imagine going into debt so much that American Distress allows you to go into unlimited debt π itβs so silly to βwork your way up the card ladderβ
This company is literally charging you $15,000 to be allowed to go into debt to them. How stupid is that? Meanwhile Iβm over here with the same money you spend on your fancy black card, plus I have the $15,000 in my bank still.
I donβt understand how itβs EVER logical to use a credit card.
Are you there same guy as 'learn Chinese now'
I applied ! just for fun LOL
why does the centurion black not kick off in europe,is it because amex is doeing very bad on the mainland?difficult to find loads of shops acepting the amex ,so being amble to spend 350k is difficult? your toughts please
Hi Credit Shifu, for Singapore, you need to have a Platinum charge card first for at least 3 years, in good standing. And you must spend at the very least $300k per year. Referring friends does not help to skip these requirements. Amex Singapore is very strict and does not want to increase the number of Centurion cardmembers. The total number of Centurion cardmembers is pretty much limited for many years. They will of course allow Centurion cardmembers who transfer over, such as from US to Singapore.
Mess around and get accepted , NO0oooo .Now I have to charge the 15k to the Chase Sapphire reserve account
My parents have that card and they are not celebrities they just spend alot
I've had a lot of the same thoughts on their motivations. But to be honest, if I'm applying for the Centurion and then offered a "consolation prize" of some lesser card, I'm not going to be happy with Amex. In reality, if they have people who are making a very good income ($400k – $500k puts you in the top 1%) and have a high net worth (>$1M, let's say), and they're willing to give Amex $15k in year 1, followed by $5k every year thereafter, Amex SHOULD be accepting them. Honestly, there are a LOT of very wealthy people out there who aren't going to spend $250k/year or more… but they may be spending $100k or $150k… why should Amex be turning them away? Amex shareholders should NOT be happy with the company essentially turning away $15k per applicant! What company, especially in this climate, should be turning away that opportunity AND that customer base? Seems silly. The card would still be exceptionally exclusive, but Amex would be that much richer, have that many more high end clients, and create a BETTER value proposition for their partners.
What if the denial still comes in a cool package…..unboxing vid??
I flew out of Las Vegas on March 14 2020 (before the city shut down) and I got to the Lounge 3 hours and 7 minutes before my schedule flight. I go to it so quickly cause there was no line at TSA security. Amex has a rule that you cant enter the lounge if your schedule flight is more than 3 hours away. The lady at the counter told me I had to go sit outside and wait for 7 minutes and than I could enter. If I had had a Black Card would she still had me wait outside for those 7 minutes?
That info has been around for a while. No point even trying if you're not spending 200k on NON-business stuff
Awesome I will finally be able to qualify for it π
4:33 "Membershi"?
"You don't have to mix with the peasants at the normal area of the airport" … Same moment: Some peasant at the Private Suite put his dirty socks on the table. Priceless. π
can you use the black card to buy American express? hahaha
Amex bankruptcy coming
I donβt need the card you can use it…pass me only the monthly points from the card…
Bro, you look familiar. Aren't you the host of a Chinese channel?
ridiculous scam of a card
That centurion card is ugly af though. π
I feel like this whole thing is just ppl trying to show off
IT WOULD BE A MIRACLE!
What's the interest rate on the card?
Amex offered me a chance to have a Centurion Card today but I am still thinking if I actually need one
That's pretty cool. Get recommended by a centurion card holder…
Hey everyone, Credit Shifu here, and should you get the Ikea credit card?!?
Man..Amex wants to find more people that just want to FLEX. And they make 5k a year doing it..
Iβll stay with my chase card ππππ
Next AmEx premium offering: A platinum card made out of actual platinum.
Do you need to have at least one Amex Card in order to be eligible?
Any rich people trying to refer me? I got the platinum and gold one
I know Amex prefers Experian if I lock my Experian and Equifax would they be able to still look at my TransUnion which has very few inquiry only 6 and it's all car shopping and I'm a 750 I have 20 to 30 and Corey's on the other bureaus also some car shopping
People are that desperate to flex. If youβre worthy of the card, they will find you.
$250,000 to $300,000 a year? no problem, just charge a Lamborghini or Ferrari every year
