Quite simply put, this is one of the finest cards on the planet AKA “The Black Card”.

Feted as one of American Express’ most exclusive charge cards and probably the most sought after.

The Black Card used to be by invitation only but that is no longer the case. There are still very strict criteria and an annual fee of $2,500 to negotiate.

Often regarded as a status symbol, this card also packs some amazing features:

• Available for business and pleasure!

Privileges include:

• Dedicated concierge and travel agent.

• Complimentary companion airline tickets on selected International Flights on purchase of a full fare ticket.

• Personal shoppers at Gucci, Escada, Saks to name a few.

• Access to airport clubs.

• First class flight upgrades.

• Membership to Sony’s Cierge personal shopping program and lots of elite club memberships.

• One night’s free stay in all Mandarin Oriental hotels worldwide once a year.

• Privileges at hotel chains like Ritz Carlton.

• Access to Virgin Atlantic Flying Club Gold.

• US Airways Platinum Preferred status.

This is what really differentiates this card from amazing card and credit card cool:

“A new Centurion card is crafted from anodized titanium[3]”

One truly amazing card, but you’re gonna need deep pockets if you want to sample the pleasures of the American Express Centurion Card. I wonder if David Beckham has one!!?
