3 Card Member Agreement
Introduction
This American Express Charge Card Member Agreement along with
the Financial Table make up the agreement (this Agreement) which
governs the use of your Account with us.
By activating your Card or using your Account, you agree to this
Agreement which replaces any previous agreement for your Account.
1. Definitions
As you read these Conditions, please remember that:
• You and your mean the person who applied for this Account
and for whom we opened the Account. References to you and
your also include actions taken by an Additional Card Member,
but Additional Card Members do not have any direct contractual
obligations to us under this Agreement.
• We, us and our mean American Express Australia Limited
(ABN 92 108 952 085, Australian Credit Licence 291313).
• Account means the account we establish and maintain in relation
to Cards issued to you and any Additional Card Members, to which
we may add Charges.
• Additional Card Member means a person issued with an
additional Card to access your Account, and may previously have
been referred to as a Supplementary Card Member.
• Card means any card, token, application or other thing we make
available for the purpose of accessing your Account.
• Charge means all transactions made using a Card or otherwise
charged to your Account, and includes purchases, fees, liquidated
damages, commissions, taxes and all other amounts you have
agreed to pay us or are liable for under this Agreement.
• Electronic Charge means a charge which is initiated by giving
an instruction in an authorised manner, through electronic
equipment (such as an electronic terminal, computer, mobile
device, telephone or ATM) but does not include a charge where the
principal means of authorising the charge is based on comparing a
signature to the signature on the back of your Card.
• Online Account means a secure website where you may access
Account information.
Please read this Agreement carefully and keep it for your
reference. You agree that it is your responsibility to ensure that
any Additional Card Members are aware of these terms. Please
see the 'Additional Card Members' section of this Agreement for
additional details.
This Agreement contains a limitation of liability clause which
limits our responsibility and liability. Please refer to the 'Limitation
of our Liability' section of this Agreement for additional details.
2. Protecting your Account, and Use of your Card(s)/Codes
Warning: Failure to comply with your obligations to protect your
Account or to notify us of a lost of stolen Card may make you liable
for unauthorised charges.
To prevent misuse of your Account, you must take the following
reasonable steps to protect your Account from unauthorised access:
• sign and activate your Card as soon as you receive it;
• keep the Card in your possession, safe and secure at all times; and
• never share your Card or Account details with anyone, except with
Merchants when making purchases.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 4 Card Member Agreement
To protect your PIN (personal identification number), telephone
codes, online passwords and any other codes used on your Account
(called Codes), you must ensure that you and any Additional Card
Members:
• never share your Code/PIN or passwords with anyone else
including a family member or friends;
• ensure that you retrieve the Card after making a Charge;
• never give out your Card details, except when using the Card in
accordance with this Agreement; and
• follow any activation process we tell you about, as soon as
possible.
We will comply with the ePayments Code and your liability for losses
arising from failing to protect your Code(s) will be determined in
accordance with the ePayments Code. See the section 'Liability for
unauthorised charges' for more details.
Permitted Uses
You may use your Account, subject to any restrictions set out in
this Agreement, to pay for goods and services from Merchants who
accept the Card (called Merchants). Here are some examples:
• using your Card to pay for goods and services by presenting the
Card to a Merchant and complying with their request to sign or
enter your Code; and
• using your Card or the Account to pay for goods and services
ordered from a Merchant by telephone, internet or mail.
If permitted by the Merchant, you may return to the Merchant goods
or services obtained using your Account and receive a credit to your
Account.
Prohibited Uses
You must not:
• give your Card or Account Number to anyone else, or permit
any other person to use your Card or Account for Charges,
identification or any other purpose;
• return goods or services obtained using your Account for a cash
refund;
• use your Card to obtain cash from a Merchant for a Charge
recorded as a purchase;
• obtain a credit to your Account except by way of a refund for goods
or services previously purchased on your Account;
• use your Account if you are bankrupt or insolvent or if you do not
honestly expect to be able to pay your closing balance on your
next statement;
• use your Card if you find or recover it after reporting to us that it
was lost or stolen;
• transfer balances from another account with us to pay your
Account;
• use your Account if your Card has been suspended or cancelled or
after the valid date shown on the back of the Card; or
• use your Account for an unlawful purpose, including the purchase
of goods or services prohibited by the laws of Australia or any
other country where the Card is used or where the goods or
services are provided.
It is your responsibility to ensure that there is no prohibited use of
your Account by you and any Additional Card Members. You will be
responsible for any prohibited use of your Account, even if we did not
prevent or stop the prohibited use.
5 Card Member Agreement
3. Lost and Stolen Cards and Misuse of Your Account
You must tell us immediately by telephone 1300 132 639 if:
• a Card is lost, not in your possession, stolen or not received;
• mobile or other device you use to make mobile payments using
your Account is lost or stolen;
• someone else learns your PIN or other security Code; or
• you suspect your Account or Card is being misused, or used
without your authority, or a Charge on your Account has not been
authorised by you or has been processed incorrectly.
If a Card that you have reported lost or stolen is later found, you must
destroy it and wait for the Replacement Card.
4. When You Are Liable for Unauthorised Charges
If applicable, your liability for unauthorised Charges will be
determined in accordance with the ePayments Code and we warrant
that we will comply with the ePayments Code.
You will not be responsible for unauthorised Charges where you have
not contributed to them, for example where they:
• were due to our fraud or negligence, or that of a Merchant or third
party involved in networking arrangements;
• related to a forged, faulty, expired or cancelled Card, PIN or
Account access device;
• occurred before you received your Card, PIN or any other Account
access device;
• related to a Charge being incorrectly debited more than once; or
• related to a Charge after you had notified us the misuse of your
Account, loss or theft of your Card or breach of security for your
PIN or other security codes.
However, you may be liable for certain unauthorised Charges, for
example where you contribute to the unauthorised Charge:
• through fraud, by breaching the security requirements in the
'Protecting Your Account' section above, or leaving your Card in an
ATM.
Then you will be responsible for all unauthorised Charges until you
report the loss or breach of security requirements to us;
• through unreasonably delaying reporting of the misuse of your
Account, loss or theft of your Card or breach of security for your
PIN or other security codes.
Then you will be responsible for all unauthorised Charges
between when you became aware of the loss or breach of security
requirements (or should reasonably have become aware) and
when it was reported to us.
If applicable, under the ePayments Code you are not liable for any
portion of losses greater than a limit on your Account or under any
rights we may have under Card scheme rules.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 6 Card Member Agreement
7. Liquidated Damages
If you do not pay the full closing balance by the due date on your
monthly Statement, you are in default and you agree that we may
charge you liquidated damages as specified in the Financial Table
on any overdue amount. Liquidated damages may themselves be
included in a future closing balance in any subsequent Statement
until paid in full.
8. Liability
Except as set out in the section 'When you are liable for unauthorised
charges', you promise to pay to us all Charges and amounts owing on
your Account, including:
• Charges you authorise even if there was no signature or Card
presented;
• Charges you authorise by allowing other people to use your
Account; and
• Charges that occur because you breach this Agreement (for
example, if you haven't taken reasonable steps to protect your
Account, including unauthorised Charges related to a lost or stolen
Card or Code being used by an unauthorised person under the
circumstances set out in the 'Lost and Stolen Cards and Misuse of
Your Account' section of this Agreement).
5. Statements
We will send or make available to you statements of account (called
Statements) periodically. We will normally send you or make available
a Statement once every month. Each Statement will show important
information about your Account, such as the outstanding balance on
the last day of the Statement period (called the Closing Balance), the
payment due, the payment due date and will include Charges made
by you and any Additional Card Members. If your Account is seriously
overdue or the Closing Balance is less than $10 or in credit, or there
have been no transactions on your Account, we may stop sending
you Statements.
Always check each Statement for accuracy and contact us as soon
as possible if you need more information about a Charge on any
Statement.
If you have a complaint or problem with your Statement or any
Charge on it, inform us immediately. If we request, you agree to
promptly provide us with written confirmation of your complaint or
problem.
If you are enrolled in online Statements you agree that we may stop
sending paper Statements. You agree that any specific terms about
online Statements that we provide to you will apply and form part of
this Agreement.
6. Fees
The fees and commissions that apply to your Account are set out
and described in the Financial Table. You agree to pay these fees and
commissions and you authorise us to charge them to your Account
when due.
7 Card Member Agreement
Additional Card Member not liable for Charges
You authorise any Additional Card Member to use your Account and
acknowledge that the Additional Card Member is an authorised user
of your Account.
You will be solely liable for Charges made by an Additional Card
Member on your Account and any Additional Card Member is not
liable to us for any Charges they make to your Account using their
Additional Card.
9. Charge Approval
Unless we inform you of a spending limit, each Charge is approved
based on the expense level and credit history of all of your Accounts
established with us, our subsidiaries and affiliates and/or licensees,
as well as on your credit history with other financial institutions and
your personal resources and income known to us. We may at our
discretion decide and inform you of a credit limit applicable to your
Account which is the maximum amount which can be outstanding
at any time on your Account (including use by any Additional Card
Members).
You agree to manage your Account so that Charges billed to your
Account do not exceed any spending limit, where applicable.
10. Card is Our Property
Although you and any Additional Card Member use Card(s) on your
Account, all Card(s) remain our property at all times. You may be
asked to return the Card to us or anyone we ask to take it on our
behalf, including Merchants. We may also inform Merchants that your
Card is no longer valid.
11. Payments
Payments are due and payable to us on the date set out on your
monthly Statement, unless we notify you that it is due immediately.
Payments may be made by any of the methods set out in your
Statement. You must also comply with any instructions and
requirements regarding payments as set out in your Statement or
that we otherwise provide you.
Payments to your American Express Card Account must come from
a personal bank account in your name or if applicable, the name
of an Additional Card Member. Payments can also be made from a
joint bank account if you, the main Card Member, or an Additional
Card Member are one of the signatories. We may require additional
verification for any payment received from an unrecognised source
and we reserve our rights to suspend or cancel any Card Account in
breach of this requirement.
You must pay us in Australian Dollars. You must allow sufficient
time for us to receive your payment by the payment due date. Third
parties who send us or process your payment on your behalf are not
our agents and their receipt of a payment will not be treated as the
time we receive your payment. We are not responsible for any delays
in receiving payments and you must pay any charges which may
apply. If you choose to pay by direct debit, you agree that any specific
terms that we provide to you at enrolment will apply and form part of
this Agreement.
If we process a late payment, a partial payment or a payment marked
with any restrictive language (such as in full or final settlement),
that will have no effect on our rights (e.g. to recover the full balance
owing) and will not change this Agreement.
If we credit your Account with a payment, we reserve the right to
reverse the payment if it is returned or dishonoured for any reason.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 8 Card Member Agreement
If you do not make your payment as required or if there is a
dishonoured payment, we may consider your Account in default
under the 'Default' section of this Agreement.
12. Allocation of Your Payments
We will normally apply payments to your Account in the following
order:
• first, to applicable delinquency charges, cash withdrawals, linked
credit account minimum dues, if any, and purchases, in that order;
• second, to annual Card Membership fees;
• third, to other fees charged by us that appear as a separate item
on your monthly Statement, for example, Statement reprint; and
• fourth, to charges, other than those above, that have appeared on
a monthly Statement.
13. Payments to Third Parties
If your Account application was obtained from a third party, such as a
Merchant or sales agent, or if your Account or the Card is co-branded
with another business, we may pay compensation to them although
the amount of compensation may be unascertainable at this time.
14. Charges Made in Foreign Currencies
For each Charge submitted to us in a currency other than Australian
Dollars (a Foreign Charge), on the day we process the Foreign Charge
we will:
• convert it to US Dollars first (unless it was submitted to us in US
Dollars);
• convert the US Dollar amount into Australian Dollars; and
• apply a single non-refundable currency conversion fee to the
Australian Dollar amount of the Foreign Charge.
We use exchange rates from customary industry sources, or a
specific rate if required by law. We use the exchange rate from the
weekday prior to the day we process the foreign charge (or two
weekdays prior for Foreign Charges processed on 1 January and 25
December). The exchange rate we use may be higher or lower than
the exchange rate available on the day you made the Foreign Charge,
and exchange rate fluctuations can be significant.
When making a Charge in a foreign currency you may have the choice
to allow a third party to convert the Charge into Australian Dollars at
the point of sale. If you choose this option, then that third party will:
• determine the exchange rate and any commission or fees payable
for the currency conversion; and
• submit that Charge to us in Australian Dollars, meaning we will not
convert the Charge or apply a currency conversion fee.
You acknowledge that any refund of a Foreign Charge may be
different to the Foreign Charge amount originally processed on your
Account. The difference is generally because:
• the refund and the Foreign Charge may be processed on different
days with different rates;
• we do not apply any currency conversion commission fee to
refunds of Foreign Charges; or
• where third parties convert Charges in foreign currencies, those
third parties may treat refunds differently to the original foreign
currency Charge.
9 Card Member Agreement
15. Additional Card Members
At your request, we may issue an Additional Card on your Account to
another person.
We may limit the number of Additional Cards issued on your Account.
We generally do not provide copies of agreements, Statements,
notices and other communications to an Additional Card Member.
You acknowledge that we may provide information to an Additional
Card Member about their use of the Account (for example their
Charges) in accordance with the Card Member Privacy Statement.
Please see the 'Liability' section of this Agreement regarding the
liability of an Additional Card Member for Charges made by that
Additional Card Member. You agree and are responsible to ensure
that each Additional Card Member reads, understands and complies
with this Agreement, including the Financial Table and any notices
and other communications that we may send to you.
To cancel an Additional Card, please see the 'Default/Closing Your
Account' section of this Agreement.
Additional Card Member Communications
You acknowledge that from time to time, we may be required to
contact any Additional Card Member(s) on your Account directly. We
may do this to comply with our legal obligations which may include
verifying the Additional Card Member’s identity and information.
You agree that you have advised your Additional Card Members that
American Express may contact them directly, and that you have
provided them access to our Card Member Privacy Statement.
We may request additional documentation from any Additional Card
Member(s). If the requested documentation is not provided, or if we
do not receive a response, we may cancel the Additional Card. You will
be informed of any such cancellation decision.
You also acknowledge that we may provide information to an
Additional Card Member about their use of the Account (for
example their charges) in accordance with the Card Member Privacy
Statement.
16. Use of ATMs
The Express Cash™ Program is governed by one or more agreements
separate from these conditions.
17. Recurring Charges
You or an Additional Card Member may authorise a Merchant to
bill your Account at regular intervals for goods or services (called
Recurring Charges). Here are some important things that you need to
know about Recurring Charges and your Account.
Replacement Cards and Cancelled Cards
A replacement or new Card (called a Replacement Card) may
be issued to you if your Card is lost, stolen, damaged, cancelled,
renewed or switched to a different Card type. Your Card may also be
cancelled or no further Charges permitted without a Replacement
Card being issued (called a Cancelled Card).
In order to avoid potential disruption of Recurring Charges
and the provision of goods or services by the Merchant in the
case of a Replacement Card or Cancelled Card, it is always your
responsibility to contact the Merchant and provide Replacement
Card information or make alternative payment arrangements.
You agree to be responsible for any Recurring Charges that may
continue to be charged to your Account from a Card that has been
replaced or cancelled. Recurring Charges may be automatically
charged to a Replacement Card without notice to you.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 10 Card Member Agreement
Please note that we do not normally provide Replacement Card
information (such as Card number and Card expiry date) to the
Merchant.
Stopping Recurring Charges
To stop Recurring Charges being billed to your Account, you must
have the right to do so by law or under your arrangement with the
Merchant and you must advise the Merchant in writing or in another
way permitted by the Merchant, to stop billing Charges to your
Account.
Our Enrolment Services
If we permit, you or an Additional Card Member may authorise us or
our agent to enrol you with a Merchant for Recurring Charges. You
will remain responsible to make other payment arrangements until
the Recurring Charges begin to be applied to your Account. We are
not responsible for any failure to enrol your Account for Recurring
Charges or if the Merchant fails to charge your Account. The
paragraph 'Stopping Recurring Charges' above also applies if you or
an Additional Card Member uses our enrolment services.
18. Authorisation
We may require Charges to be authorised by us before they are
accepted by a Merchant. We may refuse any request for authorisation
of a Charge on reasonable grounds, including for example and
without limitation where the value of Charge exceeds the available
credit balance (where applicable), where we suspect the Charge is

23. Changes to the Agreement, Card, Fees or Benefits
We may change your Card, including any fees, commissions or
benefits or any provision of this Agreement, including to:
• change the circumstances in which any of the fees, liquidated
damages or the currency conversion commission on your Account
are charged and the amount of those fees or commissions;
• impose, remove or adjust a daily or other periodic transaction limit
applying to the use of a Card, an Account or electronic equipment;
• change your liability for losses relating to unauthorised Charges
(provided the change is consistent with the ePayments Code);
• change benefits and services associated with the Account; and
• we may change any other provision of this Agreement.
We will give you at least 30 days’ advance written notice when we
make such changes, except where the change reduces what you
have to pay (or is otherwise in your favour) or the change happens
automatically under the contract. If you are dissatisfied with any
change, you may cancel this Agreement and may be entitled to a
pro rata refund, where you contact us as set out under the ‘Default/
Closing Your Account’ section of this Agreement.
24. Assignment Transfer by Us
We may assign any of our rights under this Agreement. We may also

You agree that we may disclose any information or documents we
consider necessary to help us exercise any of these rights.
We may receive compensation from additional service providers and
our compensation may vary by provider and product. Your Account
will be charged for any fees or premiums that may apply for services
and benefits.
Services and benefits that are provided by third parties are subject to
the terms and conditions set by the third party and any dispute must
be settled directly with the third party. Services and benefits may be
changed or cancelled with or without notice. We are not responsible
for any service or benefit not directly provided by us.
If your Account is closed, it will be your responsibility to obtain
replacement services and benefits or make new payment
arrangements with the third party if the service is still available.
22. Insurance
We identify insurance providers and products that may be of interest
to some of our customers. In this role, we do not act as an agent or
fiduciary for you and we may act on behalf of the insurance provider,
as permitted by law. We receive compensation from insurance
providers and our compensation may vary by provider and product.
Also, in some cases, an entity that is affiliated with us may be the
insurer or reinsurer and may earn insurance or reinsurance income.
The arrangements we have with certain providers, including the
potential to reinsure products, may also influence what products we
identify.
We do not require you to purchase any insurance product, and you
may choose to cover your insurance needs from other sources on
terms they may make available.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 12 Card Member Agreement
The inclusion of previously billed Charges and/or any portion of
dishonoured payments shown on a statement will not constitute a
waiver by us of any default.
In the event of any default, you will also be responsible for all
reasonable costs incurred by us or our agents including collection,
collection agency, and legal adviser fees and costs, in recovering any
amounts unpaid and in protecting ourselves from any harm we may
suffer as a result of the default.
You May Close Your Account
You may cancel this Agreement at any time by paying off all amounts
owing on your Account, destroying all Cards issued on your Account,
stopping use of your Account and requesting the closure of your
Account. We will only close your Account when you have paid off
all amounts you owe us. All fees continue to accrue if outstanding
balances exist on a Cancelled Card. You can cancel an Additional Card
Member’s Card by informing us.
Pro Rata Fee Refund
You may be entitled to a pro rata refund of your Annual Card
Fee if you contact us to end your Agreement in the following
circumstances:

detrimental change to your Card under the ‘Changes to the
Agreement, Card, Fees or Benefits’ section of this Agreement and
you contact us about this change within 30 days of being notified;
• or you cancel this Agreement for any reason within 30 days of the
Card Annual Fee being charged.
The amount of any pro rata refund will be assessed having regard
to when you cancel your Agreement and the Card benefits you have
used in the current period.
Transfer by you
Your rights under this Agreement are personal to you and may not be
assigned without our written consent.
25. Severability
If any provision of this Agreement conflicts with any applicable law
or regulation, that provision will be deemed to be modified or deleted
so as to be consistent with law or regulation. This will not affect the
parties’ obligations which will continue as amended.
26. Suspension
We may on reasonable grounds immediately stop you or any
Additional Card Member from using the Card or we may refuse to
authorise a Charge. For example, we may do so where the available
spending balance has been exceeded, or where we suspect that a
Charge is fraudulent, or does not comply with law or this Agreement,
or where we reasonably believe that you will be unable to comply with
your obligations under this Agreement. We will notify you as soon
as reasonably practicable of such a suspension. This Agreement
will continue if we take either of these actions and you will still be
responsible for all Charges on your Account.
27. Default/Closing Your Account
We may treat your Account as being in default at any time in the
event that you fail to comply with your obligations under this
Agreement, such as failure to make any payment when it is due or if
any form of payment is returned or not honoured in full.
We may also consider your Account to be in default at any time if any
statement made by you to us in connection with your Account was
false or misleading, you breach any other agreement that you may
have with us or with any of our affiliates, or if bankruptcy or other
creditor proceedings are threatened or initiated against you.
13 Card Member Agreement
We May Close Your Account or Cancel Any Card
We can immediately end this Agreement or cancel any or all Card(s)
or other loans if:
• you are in default at any time;
• we suspect any illegal use of the Card;
• we are required to do so by law; or
• we have reason to believe that you may no longer be creditworthy.
We may also terminate this Agreement at any time with 30 days’
notice.
If we take such action, you will still be obligated to pay all amounts
owing on your Account.
If we end this Agreement, you must pay all money you owe us
immediately, including unbilled Charges that may not be shown on
your last statement. We will only close your Account when you have
paid off all amounts you owe us.
If your Card is cancelled for any reason, all other Cards issued on this
Account will be cancelled at the same time. If we cancel this Account,
we may also have rights to cancel other Accounts you hold with us.
You will continue to be responsible for all Charges made using your
Account, including Recurring Charges until your Account is no longer
used and any Recurring Charges are stopped.
28. Communicating With You
We will contact you from time to time to manage and administer your
Account and the benefits and services on it. We may contact you in
a variety of ways depending upon which contact details you have
provided to us (for example, we may send a text to your mobile phone
number or an email to your email address). We may also contact you
online through our online sites and services (for example, within your
profile on our website or one of our mobile applications). We may
send you notices (including notices or information we are required or
choose to send you, including about changes to this Agreement) on
or together with your statements.
We may also send you marketing communications from time to
time, such as offers and promotions. We may use your personal
information for this purpose but always in accordance with our
Card Member Privacy Statement. You can opt out of marketing
communications at any time by contacting us. It is your responsibility
to keep your contact details up to date at all times. You must
inform us immediately if there are any changes to your mailing
address or email address to which we send statements or other
communications. We are not responsible if you do not receive any
communication from us (such as a statement or an account alert)
because you failed to keep your contact details updated.
29. No Waiver of Our Rights
If we fail to exercise any of our rights under this Agreement, this will
not be a waiver of our rights and will not prevent us from exercising
them later.
30. Complaints and Problems With Goods or Services
Purchased
If you have a complaint or problem with a Merchant or any goods and
services Charged to your Account, you must still pay all Charges on
your Account and settle the dispute directly with the Merchant.
31. Assignment of Claims
Although we may have no obligation to do so, if we credit your
Account in relation to your claim against a third party such as a
Merchant, you are automatically deemed to have assigned and
transferred to us, any rights and claims (excluding tort claims)

that you have, had or may have against any third party for an
amount equal to the amount we credited to your Account. After we
credit your Account, you agree not to pursue any claim against or
reimbursement from any third party for the amount that we credited
to your Account. You also agree to cooperate with us if we decide to
pursue a third party for the amount credited. Cooperation includes
signing any documents and providing any information that we
require. Crediting your Account on any occasion does not obligate us
to do so again.

provisions of this Agreement. The terms 'includes', 'such as' and 'for
example' mean, respectively, 'includes without limitation', 'such as but

Artificial Intelligence and Automated Decision Making
We use artificial intelligence (AI), automated decision-making
systems, analytical tools, and predictive models (including
statistical and machine learning models) (“ADM Systems”) to assist
with certain decisions and to support the delivery, security and
management of our products and services.
Our ADM systems analyse patterns and relationships in
data to generate risk scores, classi fi cations, predictions, or
recommendations. These systems help us assess the likelihood of
certain outcomes (such as credit risk or potential fraud) based on
patterns identi fi ed in personal information.
Some of our decisions are made solely by ADM Systems, while others
are supported or informed by ADM Systems and are reviewed or
con fi rmed by our staff.
Our ADM Systems may operate at different stages of your
relationship with us, including when you apply for a product, during
the ongoing management of your account, and in connection with
fraud prevention, risk management, and marketing activities.
We use ADM Systems where it is reasonably necessary to provide our
products and services, to support our legitimate business activities
(such as risk management and fraud prevention), or where otherwise
permitted by law.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 22 Card Member Agreement
Decisions we make using ADM Systems
We use ADM Systems in connection with:
• assessing eligibility and applications for Cards and other fi nancial
products (for example, assessing the likelihood that you may be
able to meet your repayment obligations).
• setting and adjusting credit limits (for example, based on your
fi nancial circumstances, account activity and repayment history).
• assessing creditworthiness and fi nancial risk.
• ongoing account monitoring and management, including spending
capacity and risk management.
• detecting, preventing, monitoring, and managing fraud, scams,
and suspicious transactions, including in real-time (for example,
identifying unusual transactions or behaviours that may indicate
fraud).
• identity veri fi cation and authentication.
• providing customer service and support; and,
• personalising or determining eligibility for certain bene fi ts, offers
and promotions.
Some decisions made using ADM Systems may have a signi fi cant
impact on you. For example, the decision may affect your ability
to access or use our products or services, meaning you may not
have access to credit. This may include refusing or approving an
application, setting, or adjusting your credit limit, restricting, or
declining transactions, suspending, or limiting account functionality,
or determining whether you are eligible for certain products or offers.
Types of personal information used by ADM Systems
The personal information used in our ADM Systems may include:
• application information (such as income, employment, and
financial details).
• credit reporting information, including credit history, repayment
information, and credit scores.
• account and transaction information.
• identification and contact information.

We may also combine information from different sources to improve
the accuracy and reliability of our assessments.
How ADM Systems are used in decision-making
Depending on the type of decision, decisions may be made solely by
an ADM System or substantially using an ADM System (with human
involvement). Some decisions are made using ADM Systems without
mandatory human review. This may include:
• automated approvals or declines of applications for products or
services.
• identifying transactions or activity that may be fraudulent or
suspicious; and,
• determining eligibility for certain offers, benefits, or promotions.

In these cases, model outputs are applied using predefined rules,
thresholds, or criteria.
In other cases, ADM Systems are used to generate scores, alerts or
recommendations that are considered by our staff when making a
decision. This may include decisions relating to credit limits, account
management, or risk monitoring. In these cases, our staff may
review available information and may override or adjust outcomes
generated by ADM Systems where appropriate.
Real-time decisions
For certain decisions, particularly those made in real time (such as
fraud, security, or risk controls), it may not be possible for a decision
to be reviewed by a human before it takes effect.

decision that has been made using these systems, you may contact
us to request further information. We will take reasonable steps to
provide additional information where appropriate.

We do not disclose proprietary algorithms or technical details about
our ADM Systems. However, we take reasonable steps to ensure our
ADM Systems are appropriately designed, tested, monitored, and
governed.
We maintain governance and risk management processes for ADM
Systems, which may include:
• model risk management and oversight.
• ongoing monitoring, testing, and validation.
• processes designed to identify and mitigate potential bias or
unintended impacts.
• controls designed to assess accuracy, reliability, and appropriate
use.
• data minimisation, access controls, and security measures; and,
• oversight of third party or vendor provided models, including
contractual and governance safeguards.

What Remuneration Do We Receive for Providing the Financial
Services?
Third parties
American Express may receive commissions and other remuneration
or benefits for selling financial products on behalf of third parties
or for successfully referring a customer of American Express or a
related company of American Express to a third party. Details of this
remuneration are set out below:
American Express identifies insurance providers and products that
may be of interest to some of our Card Members. In this role, we do
not act as an agent or fiduciary for you, and we may act on behalf
of the insurance provider, as permitted by law. We want you to be
aware that we receive commissions from providers and commissions
may vary by provider and product. Also, in some cases, an American
Express entity outside of the country may be the reinsurer and
may earn reinsurance income. The arrangements we have with
certain providers, including the potential to reinsure products, may
also influence what products we identify. We do not require you
to purchase any insurance product, and you may choose to cover
your insurance needs from other sources on terms they may make
available to you.
Remuneration or Other Benefits Received by American
Express Team Members
All American Express team members receive a salary. Some team
members may also receive commissions or other benefits in addition
to their salary. The payment of commissions or other benefits
generally arises where team members are engaged in roles which are
related to providing advice or selling a financial product or otherwise
affiliated with an area of American Express which is involved in the
selling of a financial product or service.
American Express team members may receive these commissions or
benefits in one or more of the following ways:
• payments for reaching sales targets generated either by their own
sales or through the achievement of sales targets by their team or
business unit;
• payments for each policy opened or for each service provided; and
• payments based on the total value of products sold or volume of
sales transacted by an account opened by a team member.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 26 Card Member Agreement
Benefits are usually monetary but may also be non-monetary.
American Express pays monetary benefits directly to the eligible
team member. Non-monetary benefits may include, amongst
other things, shares, options, discounted (or prepaid) travel or
accommodation and gift vouchers.
Payment of Benefits to Those Who Refer Customers to American
Express
American Express may pay to related companies or external parties
who refer customers to American Express a commission or other
benefit. Such payments could be in the form of a one-off payment or
other benefit, or otherwise a payment calculated as a percentage of
the total amount of sales generated.
Compensation Arrangements
American Express has professional indemnity insurance and internal
procedures in place which satisfy the requirements under s912B of
the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ('the Act'). The insurance covers
losses incurred by individuals and small businesses arising out of
a breach by American Express of its obligations under Chapter 7
of the Act. This policy covers the professional services provided by
employees and representatives of American Express even where
that employee or representative has subsequently left the employ of
American Express.
Telemarketing Companies
We may authorise and pay telemarketing companies to provide
financial services on our behalf from time to time - including the
provision of general financial advice. For example, we may authorise
a telemarketing company to call you to tell you about insurance
products we offer or to speak to you when you call American Express.
When providing these services, the telemarketing companies act on
our behalf and not for you. The telemarketing companies may also
act on behalf of other licensees including our insurance providers. For
further details, please contact us.
Payments to Telemarketing Companies
You are not required to pay the telemarketing company for the
services they provide, whether you buy insurance from them or
not. All remuneration payable to telemarketing companies is paid
by American Express or the insurance provider. The telemarketing
company may be paid by way of a flat fee, a commission or
reimbursement of their expenses.
Telemarketing Staff Incentives and Bonuses
Sometimes, a telemarketing company's employees may receive a
bonus or incentive based on the employees' performance against
sales targets and other performance criteria. This may include
monetary bonuses or fringe benefits like gifts, vouchers, meals
or entertainment. These benefits are paid by the telemarketing
company and not by American Express. We monitor telemarketing
sales closely and take steps to ensure that the level of service
provided to you is not affected by such bonuses or incentives.
Privacy and Personal Information
American Express is proud of its reputation for, and commitment to,
safeguarding information about its customers. The American Express
Customer Privacy Principles have been in place for many years and
provide a minimum standard, which applies throughout the American
Express group of companies worldwide. In Australia, we adhere to the

American Express® Card Insurance Policy Number: 09NACPLT06
Eligible American Express Card Products
This Policy applies to the following American Express Card Account
product only:
(a) American Express Platinum Card.
About this Policy
This Policy sets out important information about the insurance benefits
available to Card Members, Additional Card Members, their Spouses
and Dependent Children. It explains the nature of the arrangements and
relevant benefits and risks. If You feel that this product does not meet Your
specific needs and intended coverage, this Policy may not be right for You.
You may need to buy separate or additional insurance if this Policy does
not cover You for all the things You need cover for.
This document provides general advice only. It does not take into account
Your individual objectives, financial situation or needs. You need to decide if
the limits, type and level of cover are appropriate for You.
There is no obligation to accept any of the benefits of this Policy. However,
if You wish to make a claim under the cover provided within this Policy,
You will be bound by the definitions, terms and conditions, exclusions and
claims procedures set out in this document.
This Policy offers 3 main types of benefit and services:
1. Travel insurance benefits
2. Retail item cover
3. Personal assistance services.
Cancelled or Suspended Cards
If your card is cancelled or suspended, you are not entitled to cover under
this Policy. It is your responsibility to make sure that your minimum
repayments are paid on time and that you comply with your American
Express Card Account terms and conditions. Refer to Your American
Express Card Account terms and conditions or please contact American
Express by calling the number on the back of your Card to obtain a copy.
Termination
Cover will be terminated at the earlier of the following:
• Your American Express Card Account is cancelled or suspended; or
• termination of the Group Policy.
Upon termination of the Group Policy, the insurance benefits will no longer
be available to Card Members after the termination date. If You have
satisfied the eligibility criteria prior to the termination of the Group Policy,
cover is still available with respect to the cover section(s) that You are
eligible for. American Express will always notify You in advance if the Group
Policy is to be terminated.
Remember To Check This Policy
It is important to check this Policy from time to time, particularly before
You travel to remind yourself of what is and isn’t covered. Some things
You might consider doing whilst travelling might not be covered (for
example, jet skiing, bungee jumping or hiring a scooter if You don’t have a
motorcycle licence).
You may need to buy separate or additional insurance if this Policy does
not cover You or the things You need cover for.
Please familiarise yourself with this Policy. We want to ensure You are clear
about what it covers and what it does not cover or excludes. If You are
unclear about anything in this document, please call 1800 236 023 and
Our insurance team will be happy to assist You with any enquiries.
Always Take Care When Travelling
Make sure You have checked the most up to date Australian Government
travel advice before You go on a Trip to understand any specific risks for
Your destination. You also need to make sure You take care with Your
belongings, make sure You keep valuable possessions on You and never
leave Your luggage Unattended (for example, in a car overnight). This
insurance is not designed to cover carelessness or high-risk activities, so
be a sensible and prudent traveller.
Making A Claim
If You need to make a claim, keep supporting documents and proof of
any loss, including all police reports, sales receipts and card statements
showing any purchases made. See Section ‘ How To Make A Claim ’ for
more detail.

The cover under this Policy may be updated from time to time. A copy of
the current policy wording can always be found by visiting the American
Express Australia website at: https:/ /www.americanexpress.com/au/
insurance/insurance-with-your-card/. This document replaces and
supersedes any Policy issued prior to the effective date.
Important Things To Know About This Policy
We have listed a number of important things (below) that You should know
about this Policy. This information is not intended to be a complete list of
all coverage sections, terms, conditions or exclusions under this Policy.
Rather, the information is intended as a quick reference point to assist You
in Your understanding of this Policy.
Excess
Where applicable, an Excess is applied for each Event.
If a claim is covered, the Excess is first deducted from the amount We will
pay and before any relevant depreciation and limits have been applied to
the claim amount.
2 THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD
Examples
The below examples are provided for illustrative purposes only. Each claim will be assessed individually, based on the facts relative to the specific
claim
Example A – Excess applied: Example B – Excess and depreciation
applied:
Example C – Excess and depreciation applied to
more than one Event:
Anna books accommodation to the Sunshiny
caravan park. Her Trip with the family is in
summer, which is 3 months away. A week
before the start of the family Trip, her son
has an accident at school and breaks his leg.
Unfortunately, he needs surgery and the Doctor
confirms it’s best to be at home for the recovery.
Anna paid $1,200 for the accommodation. The
Excess is $250.
a) Deduct the Excess of $250
b) Check the total cover limits and sub limits
in the Schedule of Benefits. The amount
claimable is below these limits.
Calculation for the amount payable:
(-Excess) + accommodation = amount payable
(-$250) + $1,200 = $950 claim payment.
Jane travels to Brazil and while in Brazil her
laptop is stolen. She reports the theft to the
police and provides Us with the required
documentation. Jane paid $6,000 for her
laptop 12 months prior to this Event. Jane’s
Excess is $250.
a) Deduct the Excess of $250
b) Establish original purchase price of the
laptop: $6,000
c) Apply depreciation*:
• 2.5% per month for 12 months = 30%
depreciation.
• 30% of $6,000 = $1,800 total
depreciation.
d) Establish current value of the laptop
by subtracting depreciation from the
purchase price of the laptop
• $6,000 - $1,800 = $4,200
e) Check the total and per item limit shown
in the Schedule of Benefits and select the
lower of current value of the laptop or the
item limit. If the per item limit is $2,500
which is lower than the current value
$4,200, hence We take the lower number
= $2,500.
Calculation for the amount payable:
(-Excess) + limit per item = amount payable
(-$250) + $2,500 = $2,250 claim payment.
Rob and his wife travelled to France for 14 days. On
the 4th day of their Trip, Rob slips down the stairs
at the hotel. Thankfully it’s not a major injury, but
he did twist his ankle and needs to seek medical
attention. He was billed $500 for the Doctor’s
appointment including some scans and medication.
On the 8th day, Rob had his laptop stolen, which
was worth $1,000 when it was purchased 6 months
ago. Unfortunately, on the last day of their Trip,
Rob’s wife then lost her Smartphone worth $900
that was purchased directly before their Trip
commenced. When they return to Australia, Rob
submitted a claim for the 3 Events.
As Rob and his wife had 3 Events during their Trip to
France, an Excess would be applied to each of the
Events (and Covered Persons).
Claim 1: (-$250) Excess + $500 Medical costs =
$250 claim payment.
Claim 2:
a) Deduct the Excess of $250
b) Establish original purchase price of the laptop:
$1,000
c) Apply depreciation*:
• 2.5% per month for 6 months = 15%
depreciation.
• 15% of $1,000 = $150 total depreciation.
d) Establish current value of the laptop by
subtracting depreciation from the purchase
price of the laptop
• $1,000 - $150 = $850
Calculation for the amount payable:
(-Excess) + current value = amount payable
(-$250) + $850 = $600 claim payment.
Claim 3: (-$250) Excess + $900 Smartphone =
$650 claim payment.
*For depreciation details, please review Section G – Personal Baggage, Valuables, Money and Travel Documents Cover
The applicable Excess amount is specified in the Schedule of Benefits.
An Excess may also be a waiting period, which is the amount of time You have to wait until the benefit may become payable.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 3
Pre-Existing Medical Conditions
This Policy does not cover any costs incurred from or relating to any
Pre-Existing Medical Condition under Sections A – L (below). For example,
it does not provide cover if You need emergency medical treatment
overseas for an existing illness or if You need to Cancel Your Trip because a
Close Relative’s existing medical condition deteriorates before You travel.
If You have Pre-Existing Medical Conditions, this cover may not be right for
You. Before You make Your Qualifying Travel Purchase, You should review
this Policy to make sure it provides the right cover for You and Your
health situation.
Pregnancy & Travel Insurance Benefits
It’s important to understand how Your travel insurance benefits under this
Policy may be limited if You are pregnant. These are summarised below.
When does the travel insurance cover You if You are pregnant?
If You are pregnant, You will be covered for unforeseen emergency medical
treatment whilst overseas up to 8 weeks before Your estimated date of
delivery. However, You will not be covered for costs associated with the
actual birth of Your child overseas or any pregnancy related medical
conditions that You were already suffering before Your Qualifying Travel
Purchase. For more information see – When are You Not Covered if You
are pregnant? (below).
Two key sections of this Policy that You should be aware of are:
1. Section E - Medical Emergency Expenses Cover:
You are covered for Events arising from or related to Your pregnancy
when You are on an International Return Trip, if You have a sudden and
unexpected Injury or Illness, which:
a) occurs more than 8 weeks before Your estimated date of delivery; and
b) is not otherwise excluded within this Policy.
2. Section A - Trip Cancellation and Amendment Cover:
You are covered if You have a sudden and unexpected Injury or Illness
arising from or related to Your pregnancy that prevents You from going on
the Trip or continuing the Trip, and which:
a) is confirmed by medical evidence provided by a treating Doctor;
b) occurs more than 8 weeks before Your estimated date of delivery; and
c) is not otherwise excluded within this Policy.
When Are You Not Covered if You are pregnant?
You are not covered for any costs arising from or related to:
1. any Pre-Existing Medical Condition;
2. any past medical condition(s) relating to a previous pregnancy
or if You have experienced pregnancy complications prior to Your
Qualifying Travel Purchase;
3. Your pregnancy under Medical Emergency Expenses Cover or
Trip Cancellation and Amendment Cover within 8 weeks of Your
estimated date of delivery;
4. any costs under Medical Emergency Expenses Cover arising from
childbirth or the health of a newborn child. This exclusion applies
irrespective of the stage of pregnancy at which the child is born;
meaning a newborn (whether premature or otherwise) is not
considered a Covered Person under this Policy if the child was born
on the Trip;
5. any costs under Medical Emergency Expenses Cover arising from
or relating to an abortion, unless an abortion is medically necessary
to protect the health and safety of the mother following an Injury or
Illness, as determined by a treating Doctor;
6. fertility treatment or treatment associated with an assisted
reproduction program including but not limited to, in vitro
fertilisation (IVF).
Exclusions Within This Policy
As with all insurance, there are certain exclusions that apply. Some
exclusions only apply to certain benefits under this Policy, while other
exclusions apply to all claims. You should read the following:
a) General Exclusions and General Conditions sections within this Policy,
which apply to all claims.
b) Each cover section includes information about what We cover and any
terms and conditions and exclusions that apply to the cover section.
To ensure You understand when We will pay for a claim, You should read
each section carefully. You should make sure to check this Policy
before You travel to make sure that You, and all the things You want to do,
are covered.

to travel (for example, through border closures or ‘Do Not Travel’

You are only eligible for the travel insurance benefits under Sections A – K
of this Policy for return Trips i.e. trips that begin and end from Your Home
or Work in Australia. It does not cover One-Way Trips where You have no
plans to return to Australia.
You may need to provide evidence of Your intention to return to Your Home
or Your Work where reasonably possible, for example by providing copies
of a return ticket, itinerary or schedule, return transfer or accommodation
bookings, confirmation of return to Work dates etc. Remember, cover
automatically ends for all Trips at 180 days.

that You are responsible for under Your Rental Agreement with a Rental
Company. Loss Damage Waiver cover does not extend to all vehicles that
You may wish to hire. For example, motorcycles, campervans and buses
(except for mini buses hired for recreational purposes) are not covered.
Fraud
Chubb takes insurance fraud seriously. Creation or submission of false
documents, or exaggerating a genuine claim is considered insurance
fraud. Such behaviour has a negative impact on the cost of insurance for
all customers.
We use Our dedicated special investigations unit at Chubb to detect and
investigate selected claims daily. When the evidence supports it, Chubb will
report suspect claims to the police and dedicate resources to assisting any
potential criminal prosecutions.

sanitary conditions, reliability of telephone systems and facilities for

Which policy applies?
Your American Express Card Account product
associated with this Policy.
A different American Express card with no
insurance benefits.
This Policy will not apply as you changed Your
American Express Card. This means there is no
cover under this Policy.
See Example A below.
Your American Express Card Account product
associated with this Policy.
A different American Express card with
different insurance benefits (i.e. where you
upgrade or downgrade to a different card).
This Policy will not apply as you changed Your
American Express card.
The policy of your new American Express card will
apply, subject to the terms, conditions, limits and
exclusions of that policy.
See Example B below.
A different American Express card product with
or without insurance benefits.
Your American Express Card Account associated
with this Policy.
This Policy will apply. Cover is subject to the
terms, conditions, limits and exclusions of
this Policy.
Card Suspension or Cancellation
Your American Express Card Account product
associated with this Policy.
Your American Express Card Account has been
cancelled or suspended.
This Policy does not apply; there are no insurance
benefits available to you as your American
Express Card Account has been cancelled
or suspended.
If You change Your American Express Card
Account product, or Your American Express Card
Account is Cancelled or Suspended
If You change Your American Express Card Account product to another
card offered by American Express (e.g. a card downgrade or upgrade), you
will not be entitled to cover under this Policy and the insurance benefits
will stop.
The card you hold at the date of the claim Event will determine which
insurance benefits you have. If your new American Express card comes
with insurance benefits, you may be entitled to cover under that new policy.
You should always check before changing to another American Express
card whether that card comes with insurance benefits, and the terms and
conditions associated with any such insurance benefits to ensure the level
of cover is right for You.
If your American Express Card Account is suspended or cancelled, then
there is no cover under this Policy.
Please see the table below for more information.
10 THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD
Example A – No American Express Card Account in place at the date of
claim Event
Example B – Different American Express card in place at the date of
claim Event
Joan holds an American Express Card Account that has travel insurance
cover and makes a Qualifying Travel Purchase for a Trip that she intends to
take later in the year.
Before she starts her Trip, Joan decides to cancel her American Express Card
Account. Upon cancelling her American Express Card Account, Joan does
not apply for another American Express card.
Subsequently, Joan travels and unfortunately her luggage is lost in transit to
her scheduled destination.
Joan does not have any entitlement to make a claim under the Policy for
the lost luggage as Joan had cancelled the American Express Card Account,
which means Joan did not hold a valid American Express Card Account at
the date of the claim Event and therefore no longer has access to the travel
insurance cover.
Tim makes a Qualifying Travel Purchase for a Trip using his American Express
Card Account that has travel insurance cover.
Prior to travelling, Tim arranges with American Express to downgrade his
card to another American Express card with a lower fee that has less travel
insurance benefits.
On the Trip, Tim suffers an Injury. The previous American Express Card
Account which Tim held included Medical Emergency Expenses cover, but
the new card held by Tim at the date of the claim Event does not include
Medical Emergency Expenses cover.
Tim cannot therefore make a claim for Medical Emergency Expenses as
the policy in-force at the date of the claim Event does not include this type
of cover.

DEPRECIATION – PERSONAL BAGGAGE, VALUABLES, MONEY AND
TRAVEL DOCUMENTS COVER
We will apply depreciation (wear and tear) to determine the value of Your
Personal Baggage and Valuables as specified in the table below.
Depreciation considers an item’s age, damage or change that is caused to
an item when it is used normally. Depreciation will be calculated from the
date of purchase of the item until the date of claimable Event, based on the
original purchase price.
For example: If You purchased a Smartphone for $1,000, went on a Trip and
the phone was stolen, We will calculate the number of months between the
date You purchased Your phone and the claimable Event date. Suppose the
number of months is 6, We will calculate the depreciation as follows:
• (-Excess) + purchase price – deprecation = amount payable
• Number of months = 6
• 6 multiplied by depreciation for Smartphone of 2.5% = 15%
• Depreciation: $1,000 multiplied by 15% = $150
• Amount payable for Your stolen Smartphone: (-250) + $1,000 - $150
= $600

insurance policy in respect of the same loss as Your claim under this
Policy (for example a home and contents policy, an alternative mobile
phone policy or the American Express Travel Insurance Policy Wording
and Product Disclosure Statement), then Chubb is not liable to provide
indemnity under this Policy until the amount of any indemnity under the
other policy is exhausted. Therefore, any insurance cover under this Policy
in respect of the same loss will only be excess insurance cover over and

c. Membership Tier: Radisson Rewards members may qualify for Club, Premium or VIP tier. Benefits, awards, redemption opportunities and requirements for each tier are determined by us from time to time. Tier eligibility is dependent on the number of Eligible Nights or Eligible Stays at Participating Properties in a 12-month period as follows and is also determined at the sole discretion of Radisson Rewards:
i. Club tier: Radisson Rewards members earn Club tier upon enrollment. No stays or nights are required for this entry level
ii. Premium tier: Radisson Rewards members may earn Premium Status with at least 5 Eligible Nights or 3 Eligible Stays in a 12-month period and each subsequent 12 months.
iii. VIP tier: Radisson Rewards members may earn VIP tier with at least 30 Eligible Nights or 20 Eligible Stays in a 12-month period and each subsequent 12 months.

Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners: members may earn Premium tier after the first eligible professional booking is completed and the reservation has checked out. Nights booked with an Online Travel Company will count as tier nights and contribute towards your tier status
As a Radisson Rewards member, you have a qualification period of 12 months to obtain enough Eligible Nights or Eligible Stays to maintain your tier status or to upgrade to the next tier level. The qualification period starts when the first stay is completed and lasts 12 months until the end of the month.

As a Club or Premium member, once you achieve enough Eligible Nights and Eligible Stays to access the next tier, your membership tier will be upgraded instantly after check-out.

a. Eligibility: A membership in Radisson Rewards for Airlines employees is open to individual persons who are of majority age in their place of residence and who are employed at an Airline. The remaining terms align with Radisson Rewards eligibility requirements.
b. Enrollment: You may apply for membership in Radisson Rewards for Airline employees at a Participating Property using the dedicated enrollment process or through the dedicated enrollment process at selected airlines. The remaining terms align with Radisson Rewards enrollment requirements.
c. Membership Tiers: Radisson Rewards for Airline employee members are enrolled in VIP tier. Benefits, awards, redemption opportunities and requirements for the tier are determined by us from time to time. Tier eligibility is dependent on the number of Eligible Nights and Eligible Stays at Participating Properties in a 12-month period as follows and is also determined at the sole discretion of Radisson Rewards:
Only the room in which the member is registered as a guest for the duration of the Eligible Stay will count toward Elite Tier.
As a Radisson Rewards for Airline employee member, you have a qualification period of 12 months to obtain enough Eligible Nights and Eligible Stays to maintain your tier status or to upgrade to the next tier level. The qualification period starts when the first stay is completed and lasts 12 months until the end of the month.
Once you achieve enough Eligible Nights and Eligible Stays to access the next tier, your membership tier will be upgraded instantly after check-out. The Eligible Nights and Eligible Stays that allowed you to move to the next level will be deducted from your Eligible Nights and Eligible Stays balance and a new qualification period of 12 months will start. The minimum number of Eligible Nights and Eligible Stays corresponding to your status will be required to maintain your status (Premium= 5 nights/3 stays, VIP= 30 nights/20 stays).
If you did not make enough Eligible Nights and Eligible Stays during the qualification period, your membership will move down one tier level. In case you are a Club member, after 12 months without reaching the minimum Eligible Nights and Eligible Stays to upgrade to the next tier level, your Eligible Nights and Eligible Stays counter would be reset to 0 nights/stays and a new qualification period will start.
d. Membership Benefits: Radisson Rewards member benefits vary by participating hotel and brand, are subject to availability, and are subject to change at any time. Member benefits are available only when the member is the registered guest and on the Airline employee personal stays. Member benefits are not offered to Airline employee members on their duty/work trips. Void where prohibited by law.

c. Redeeming Points:
i. Generally: Radisson Rewards and Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners members may redeem points at Participating Properties or through our Partners. Points may be redeemed for the benefit of the Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners member or for another individual as a gift. Members can book an Award Night as a gift for their friend or family member but they cannot sell it for a profit. Except for transfers of points expressly allowed in these Program Terms or with Radisson’s written consent, points may not otherwise be sold, exchanged, bartered, brokered, transferred, purchased, auctioned, or given away. Redemption options are subject to change from time to time without notice in our sole discretion.
When redeeming points, you will be required to verify your Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners account information. The corresponding number of points will be subtracted from your account at the time the transaction is initiated, and there must be a sufficient number of points in your account at that time for the transaction. Points in two or more different accounts may not be combined for redemption. Redemption transactions may be approved or revoked in the sole discretion of Radisson.
ii. At Participating Properties:
1\. Award Nights: Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners members may redeem points for Award Nights at Participating Properties, subject to availability.

Award Nights may not be combined with other certificates, discounts, packages, or promotional offers and are not commissionable, including without limitation commissions to travel agents, unless specified as a separate promotion. Award Nights apply to a standard room with standard occupancy. Additional occupants are subject to the Participating Property’s standard extra person charges. In avoidance of doubt, even if a member makes a booking for 3 people on an Award Night redemption for a standard room, a member will still need to pay for the extra person. Award Nights are subject to each Participating Property’s cancellation, guarantee and deposit policies. Points equal to one night of an Award Night reservation will be deducted from your account if your reservation is not cancelled in accordance with the Participating Property’s cancellation policy. Any incidental charges in connection with an Award Night are the sole responsibility of the member. Members can book an Award Night as a gift for their friend or family member, but they cannot sell it for a profit. Members will be able to redeem points for hotel stays up to 600USD per night via website, app or Contact Center. A member can redeem points for hotel stays over 600USD at the check-out desk.

ii. Upon Death Points belonging to a Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners member who is deceased may be transferred to the account of the deceased member’s beneficiary(ies) in our sole discretion.

The transfer request must include documentation showing proof of death, such as a death certificate, and proof of authority to make the request, such as court documents or the decedent’s will. Requests must be made within one (1) year of the date of death or the deceased member’s account will be closed and all points forfeited.
e. Expiration of Points: If there is no points activity in your Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners account for any 24-month period, we may, at any time and in our sole discretion and without notice or liability to you, void and cancel any or all of your points.

Lost and Stolen Cards and Misuse of Your Account You must tell us immediately by telephone 1300 132 639 if: • a Card is lost, not in your possession, stolen or not received; • mobile or other device you use to make mobile payments using your Account is lost or stolen; • someone else learns your PIN or other security Code; or • you suspect your Account or Card is being misused, or used without your authority, or a Charge on your Account has not been authorised by you or has been processed incorrectly. If a Card that you have reported lost or stolen is later found, you must destroy it and wait for the Replacement Card. 4. When You Are Liable for Unauthorised Charges If applicable, your liability for unauthorised Charges will be determined in accordance with the ePayments Code and we warrant that we will comply with the ePayments Code. You will not be responsible for unauthorised Charges where you have not contributed to them, for example where they: • were due to our fraud or negligence, or that of a Merchant or third party involved in networking arrangements; • related to a forged, faulty, expired or cancelled Card, PIN or Account access device; • occurred before you received your Card, PIN or any other Account access device; • related to a Charge being incorrectly debited more than once; or • related to a Charge after you had notified us the misuse of your Account, loss or theft of your Card or breach of security for your PIN or other security codes. However, you may be liable for certain unauthorised Charges, for example where you contribute to the unauthorised Charge: • through fraud, by breaching the security requirements in the 'Protecting Your Account' section above, or leaving your Card in an ATM. Then you will be responsible for all unauthorised Charges until you report the loss or breach of security requirements to us; • through unreasonably delaying reporting of the misuse of your Account, loss or theft of your Card or breach of security for your PIN or other security codes. Then you will be responsible for all unauthorised Charges between when you became aware of the loss or breach of security requirements (or should reasonably have become aware) and when it was reported to us. If applicable, under the ePayments Code you are not liable for any portion of losses greater than a limit on your Account or under any rights we may have under Card scheme rules.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 6 Card Member Agreement 7. Liquidated Damages If you do not pay the full closing balance by the due date on your monthly Statement, you are in default and you agree that we may charge you liquidated damages as specified in the Financial Table on any overdue amount. Liquidated damages may themselves be included in a future closing balance in any subsequent Statement until paid in full. 8. Liability Except as set out in the section 'When you are liable for unauthorised charges', you promise to pay to us all Charges and amounts owing on your Account, including: • Charges you authorise even if there was no signature or Card presented; • Charges you authorise by allowing other people to use your Account; and • Charges that occur because you breach this Agreement (for example, if you haven't taken reasonable steps to protect your Account, including unauthorised Charges related to a lost or stolen Card or Code being used by an unauthorised person under the circumstances set out in the 'Lost and Stolen Cards and Misuse of Your Account' section of this Agreement). 5. Statements We will send or make available to you statements of account (called Statements) periodically. We will normally send you or make available a Statement once every month. Each Statement will show important information about your Account, such as the outstanding balance on the last day of the Statement period (called the Closing Balance), the payment due, the payment due date and will include Charges made by you and any Additional Card Members. If your Account is seriously overdue or the Closing Balance is less than $10 or in credit, or there have been no transactions on your Account, we may stop sending you Statements. Always check each Statement for accuracy and contact us as soon as possible if you need more information about a Charge on any Statement. If you have a complaint or problem with your Statement or any Charge on it, inform us immediately. If we request, you agree to promptly provide us with written confirmation of your complaint or problem. If you are enrolled in online Statements you agree that we may stop sending paper Statements. You agree that any specific terms about online Statements that we provide to you will apply and form part of this Agreement. 6. Fees The fees and commissions that apply to your Account are set out and described in the Financial Table. You agree to pay these fees and commissions and you authorise us to charge them to your Account when due.
7 Card Member Agreement Additional Card Member not liable for Charges You authorise any Additional Card Member to use your Account and acknowledge that the Additional Card Member is an authorised user of your Account. You will be solely liable for Charges made by an Additional Card Member on your Account and any Additional Card Member is not liable to us for any Charges they make to your Account using their Additional Card. 9. Charge Approval Unless we inform you of a spending limit, each Charge is approved based on the expense level and credit history of all of your Accounts established with us, our subsidiaries and affiliates and/or licensees, as well as on your credit history with other financial institutions and your personal resources and income known to us. We may at our discretion decide and inform you of a credit limit applicable to your Account which is the maximum amount which can be outstanding at any time on your Account (including use by any Additional Card Members). You agree to manage your Account so that Charges billed to your Account do not exceed any spending limit, where applicable. 10. Card is Our Property Although you and any Additional Card Member use Card(s) on your Account, all Card(s) remain our property at all times. You may be asked to return the Card to us or anyone we ask to take it on our behalf, including Merchants. We may also inform Merchants that your Card is no longer valid. 11. Payments Payments are due and payable to us on the date set out on your monthly Statement, unless we notify you that it is due immediately. Payments may be made by any of the methods set out in your Statement. You must also comply with any instructions and requirements regarding payments as set out in your Statement or that we otherwise provide you. Payments to your American Express Card Account must come from a personal bank account in your name or if applicable, the name of an Additional Card Member. Payments can also be made from a joint bank account if you, the main Card Member, or an Additional Card Member are one of the signatories. We may require additional verification for any payment received from an unrecognised source and we reserve our rights to suspend or cancel any Card Account in breach of this requirement. You must pay us in Australian Dollars. You must allow sufficient time for us to receive your payment by the payment due date. Third parties who send us or process your payment on your behalf are not our agents and their receipt of a payment will not be treated as the time we receive your payment. We are not responsible for any delays in receiving payments and you must pay any charges which may apply. If you choose to pay by direct debit, you agree that any specific terms that we provide to you at enrolment will apply and form part of this Agreement. If we process a late payment, a partial payment or a payment marked with any restrictive language (such as in full or final settlement), that will have no effect on our rights (e.g. to recover the full balance owing) and will not change this Agreement. If we credit your Account with a payment, we reserve the right to reverse the payment if it is returned or dishonoured for any reason.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 8 Card Member Agreement If you do not make your payment as required or if there is a dishonoured payment, we may consider your Account in default under the 'Default' section of this Agreement. 12. Allocation of Your Payments We will normally apply payments to your Account in the following order: • first, to applicable delinquency charges, cash withdrawals, linked credit account minimum dues, if any, and purchases, in that order; • second, to annual Card Membership fees; • third, to other fees charged by us that appear as a separate item on your monthly Statement, for example, Statement reprint; and • fourth, to charges, other than those above, that have appeared on a monthly Statement. 13. Payments to Third Parties If your Account application was obtained from a third party, such as a Merchant or sales agent, or if your Account or the Card is co-branded with another business, we may pay compensation to them although the amount of compensation may be unascertainable at this time. 14. Charges Made in Foreign Currencies For each Charge submitted to us in a currency other than Australian Dollars (a Foreign Charge), on the day we process the Foreign Charge we will: • convert it to US Dollars first (unless it was submitted to us in US Dollars); • convert the US Dollar amount into Australian Dollars; and • apply a single non-refundable currency conversion fee to the Australian Dollar amount of the Foreign Charge. We use exchange rates from customary industry sources, or a specific rate if required by law. We use the exchange rate from the weekday prior to the day we process the foreign charge (or two weekdays prior for Foreign Charges processed on 1 January and 25 December). The exchange rate we use may be higher or lower than the exchange rate available on the day you made the Foreign Charge, and exchange rate fluctuations can be significant. When making a Charge in a foreign currency you may have the choice to allow a third party to convert the Charge into Australian Dollars at the point of sale. If you choose this option, then that third party will: • determine the exchange rate and any commission or fees payable for the currency conversion; and • submit that Charge to us in Australian Dollars, meaning we will not convert the Charge or apply a currency conversion fee. You acknowledge that any refund of a Foreign Charge may be different to the Foreign Charge amount originally processed on your Account. The difference is generally because: • the refund and the Foreign Charge may be processed on different days with different rates; • we do not apply any currency conversion commission fee to refunds of Foreign Charges; or • where third parties convert Charges in foreign currencies, those third parties may treat refunds differently to the original foreign currency Charge.
9 Card Member Agreement 15. Additional Card Members At your request, we may issue an Additional Card on your Account to another person. We may limit the number of Additional Cards issued on your Account. We generally do not provide copies of agreements, Statements, notices and other communications to an Additional Card Member. You acknowledge that we may provide information to an Additional Card Member about their use of the Account (for example their Charges) in accordance with the Card Member Privacy Statement. Please see the 'Liability' section of this Agreement regarding the liability of an Additional Card Member for Charges made by that Additional Card Member. You agree and are responsible to ensure that each Additional Card Member reads, understands and complies with this Agreement, including the Financial Table and any notices and other communications that we may send to you. To cancel an Additional Card, please see the 'Default/Closing Your Account' section of this Agreement. Additional Card Member Communications You acknowledge that from time to time, we may be required to contact any Additional Card Member(s) on your Account directly. We may do this to comply with our legal obligations which may include verifying the Additional Card Member’s identity and information. You agree that you have advised your Additional Card Members that American Express may contact them directly, and that you have provided them access to our Card Member Privacy Statement. We may request additional documentation from any Additional Card Member(s). If the requested documentation is not provided, or if we do not receive a response, we may cancel the Additional Card. You will be informed of any such cancellation decision. You also acknowledge that we may provide information to an Additional Card Member about their use of the Account (for example their charges) in accordance with the Card Member Privacy Statement. 16. Use of ATMs The Express Cash™ Program is governed by one or more agreements separate from these conditions. 17. Recurring Charges You or an Additional Card Member may authorise a Merchant to bill your Account at regular intervals for goods or services (called Recurring Charges). Here are some important things that you need to know about Recurring Charges and your Account. Replacement Cards and Cancelled Cards A replacement or new Card (called a Replacement Card) may be issued to you if your Card is lost, stolen, damaged, cancelled, renewed or switched to a different Card type. Your Card may also be cancelled or no further Charges permitted without a Replacement Card being issued (called a Cancelled Card). In order to avoid potential disruption of Recurring Charges and the provision of goods or services by the Merchant in the case of a Replacement Card or Cancelled Card, it is always your responsibility to contact the Merchant and provide Replacement Card information or make alternative payment arrangements. You agree to be responsible for any Recurring Charges that may continue to be charged to your Account from a Card that has been replaced or cancelled. Recurring Charges may be automatically charged to a Replacement Card without notice to you.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 10 Card Member Agreement Please note that we do not normally provide Replacement Card information (such as Card number and Card expiry date) to the Merchant. Stopping Recurring Charges To stop Recurring Charges being billed to your Account, you must have the right to do so by law or under your arrangement with the Merchant and you must advise the Merchant in writing or in another way permitted by the Merchant, to stop billing Charges to your Account. Our Enrolment Services If we permit, you or an Additional Card Member may authorise us or our agent to enrol you with a Merchant for Recurring Charges. You will remain responsible to make other payment arrangements until the Recurring Charges begin to be applied to your Account. We are not responsible for any failure to enrol your Account for Recurring Charges or if the Merchant fails to charge your Account. The paragraph 'Stopping Recurring Charges' above also applies if you or an Additional Card Member uses our enrolment services. 18. Authorisation We may require Charges to be authorised by us before they are accepted by a Merchant. We may refuse any request for authorisation of a Charge on reasonable grounds, including for example and without limitation where the value of Charge exceeds the available credit balance (where applicable), where we suspect the Charge is fraudulent, is subject to Australian or United States sanctions or does not comply with this Agreement, or where we reasonably believe that you may be unable to fulfil your obligations under this Agreement. 19. Renewal and Replacement Cards You authorise us to send you and any Additional Card Members a renewal Card or a Replacement Card before the current Card expires. You must destroy any expired Cards in accordance with the instructions we provide you. This Agreement as amended or replaced continues to apply to any renewal or Replacement Cards we issue. 20. Privacy The collection, use and disclosure of your information by us is regulated by the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). We collect, use and share your personal information in accordance with our American Express Card Member Privacy Statement, which provides you with information about: • the collection, use and disclosure of your credit information and personal information; • how you can access and seek to correct your personal information and credit information; • how you can opt out from our marketing lists; and • more details on our Online Privacy Statement and Credit Reporting Policy. A full copy of our Card Member Privacy Statement is provided at the end of this Agreement. By providing your personal information to us and using your Account, you agree to the terms of our Card Member Privacy Statement. 21. Additional Services We may make available additional services or benefits which will be subject to separate terms and conditions. Examples of services or benefits include insurance, assistance services, rewards programs and Merchant offers.
11 Card Member Agreement 23. Changes to the Agreement, Card, Fees or Benefits We may change your Card, including any fees, commissions or benefits or any provision of this Agreement, including to: • change the circumstances in which any of the fees, liquidated damages or the currency conversion commission on your Account are charged and the amount of those fees or commissions; • impose, remove or adjust a daily or other periodic transaction limit applying to the use of a Card, an Account or electronic equipment; • change your liability for losses relating to unauthorised Charges (provided the change is consistent with the ePayments Code); • change benefits and services associated with the Account; and • we may change any other provision of this Agreement. We will give you at least 30 days’ advance written notice when we make such changes, except where the change reduces what you have to pay (or is otherwise in your favour) or the change happens automatically under the contract. If you are dissatisfied with any change, you may cancel this Agreement and may be entitled to a pro rata refund, where you contact us as set out under the ‘Default/ Closing Your Account’ section of this Agreement. 24. Assignment Transfer by Us We may assign any of our rights under this Agreement. We may also transfer our obligations under this Agreement to any third party provided we are satisfied that there will be no detriment to you in the transfer. You agree that we may disclose any information or documents we consider necessary to help us exercise any of these rights. We may receive compensation from additional service providers and our compensation may vary by provider and product. Your Account will be charged for any fees or premiums that may apply for services and benefits. Services and benefits that are provided by third parties are subject to the terms and conditions set by the third party and any dispute must be settled directly with the third party. Services and benefits may be changed or cancelled with or without notice. We are not responsible for any service or benefit not directly provided by us. If your Account is closed, it will be your responsibility to obtain replacement services and benefits or make new payment arrangements with the third party if the service is still available. 22. Insurance We identify insurance providers and products that may be of interest to some of our customers. In this role, we do not act as an agent or fiduciary for you and we may act on behalf of the insurance provider, as permitted by law. We receive compensation from insurance providers and our compensation may vary by provider and product. Also, in some cases, an entity that is affiliated with us may be the insurer or reinsurer and may earn insurance or reinsurance income. The arrangements we have with certain providers, including the potential to reinsure products, may also influence what products we identify. We do not require you to purchase any insurance product, and you may choose to cover your insurance needs from other sources on terms they may make available.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 12 Card Member Agreement The inclusion of previously billed Charges and/or any portion of dishonoured payments shown on a statement will not constitute a waiver by us of any default. In the event of any default, you will also be responsible for all reasonable costs incurred by us or our agents including collection, collection agency, and legal adviser fees and costs, in recovering any amounts unpaid and in protecting ourselves from any harm we may suffer as a result of the default. You May Close Your Account You may cancel this Agreement at any time by paying off all amounts owing on your Account, destroying all Cards issued on your Account, stopping use of your Account and requesting the closure of your Account. We will only close your Account when you have paid off all amounts you owe us. All fees continue to accrue if outstanding balances exist on a Cancelled Card. You can cancel an Additional Card Member’s Card by informing us. Pro Rata Fee Refund You may be entitled to a pro rata refund of your Annual Card Fee if you contact us to end your Agreement in the following circumstances: • you cancel this Agreement because we have made a materially detrimental change to your Card under the ‘Changes to the Agreement, Card, Fees or Benefits’ section of this Agreement and you contact us about this change within 30 days of being notified; • or you cancel this Agreement for any reason within 30 days of the Card Annual Fee being charged. The amount of any pro rata refund will be assessed having regard to when you cancel your Agreement and the Card benefits you have used in the current period. Transfer by you Your rights under this Agreement are personal to you and may not be assigned without our written consent. 25. Severability If any provision of this Agreement conflicts with any applicable law or regulation, that provision will be deemed to be modified or deleted so as to be consistent with law or regulation. This will not affect the parties’ obligations which will continue as amended. 26. Suspension We may on reasonable grounds immediately stop you or any Additional Card Member from using the Card or we may refuse to authorise a Charge. For example, we may do so where the available spending balance has been exceeded, or where we suspect that a Charge is fraudulent, or does not comply with law or this Agreement, or where we reasonably believe that you will be unable to comply with your obligations under this Agreement. We will notify you as soon as reasonably practicable of such a suspension. This Agreement will continue if we take either of these actions and you will still be responsible for all Charges on your Account. 27. Default/Closing Your Account We may treat your Account as being in default at any time in the event that you fail to comply with your obligations under this Agreement, such as failure to make any payment when it is due or if any form of payment is returned or not honoured in full. We may also consider your Account to be in default at any time if any statement made by you to us in connection with your Account was false or misleading, you breach any other agreement that you may have with us or with any of our affiliates, or if bankruptcy or other creditor proceedings are threatened or initiated against you.
13 Card Member Agreement We May Close Your Account or Cancel Any Card We can immediately end this Agreement or cancel any or all Card(s) or other loans if: • you are in default at any time; • we suspect any illegal use of the Card; • we are required to do so by law; or • we have reason to believe that you may no longer be creditworthy. We may also terminate this Agreement at any time with 30 days’ notice. If we take such action, you will still be obligated to pay all amounts owing on your Account. If we end this Agreement, you must pay all money you owe us immediately, including unbilled Charges that may not be shown on your last statement. We will only close your Account when you have paid off all amounts you owe us. If your Card is cancelled for any reason, all other Cards issued on this Account will be cancelled at the same time. If we cancel this Account, we may also have rights to cancel other Accounts you hold with us. You will continue to be responsible for all Charges made using your Account, including Recurring Charges until your Account is no longer used and any Recurring Charges are stopped. 28. Communicating With You We will contact you from time to time to manage and administer your Account and the benefits and services on it. We may contact you in a variety of ways depending upon which contact details you have provided to us (for example, we may send a text to your mobile phone number or an email to your email address). We may also contact you online through our online sites and services (for example, within your profile on our website or one of our mobile applications). We may send you notices (including notices or information we are required or choose to send you, including about changes to this Agreement) on or together with your statements. We may also send you marketing communications from time to time, such as offers and promotions. We may use your personal information for this purpose but always in accordance with our Card Member Privacy Statement. You can opt out of marketing communications at any time by contacting us. It is your responsibility to keep your contact details up to date at all times. You must inform us immediately if there are any changes to your mailing address or email address to which we send statements or other communications. We are not responsible if you do not receive any communication from us (such as a statement or an account alert) because you failed to keep your contact details updated. 29. No Waiver of Our Rights If we fail to exercise any of our rights under this Agreement, this will not be a waiver of our rights and will not prevent us from exercising them later. 30. Complaints and Problems With Goods or Services Purchased If you have a complaint or problem with a Merchant or any goods and services Charged to your Account, you must still pay all Charges on your Account and settle the dispute directly with the Merchant. 31. Assignment of Claims Although we may have no obligation to do so, if we credit your Account in relation to your claim against a third party such as a Merchant, you are automatically deemed to have assigned and transferred to us, any rights and claims (excluding tort claims)
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 14 Card Member Agreement that you have, had or may have against any third party for an amount equal to the amount we credited to your Account. After we credit your Account, you agree not to pursue any claim against or reimbursement from any third party for the amount that we credited to your Account. You also agree to cooperate with us if we decide to pursue a third party for the amount credited. Cooperation includes signing any documents and providing any information that we require. Crediting your Account on any occasion does not obligate us to do so again. 32. Examples When we provide examples in this Agreement, they do not limit the provisions of this Agreement. The terms 'includes', 'such as' and 'for example' mean, respectively, 'includes without limitation', 'such as but without limitation' and 'for example but without limitation'. 33.

Transfer of your personal information and credit information overseas American Express is a global organisation and we may use international entities to help our business functions. As a result, American Express may need to share your information outside of Australia. It is impracticable for American Express to list out each and every country that we may share your information to, but such countries include the United States of America, Malaysia, India, and the United Kingdom. We will ensure that any transfer of your personal information is subject to appropriate conditions of con fi dentiality to ensure your information is handled consistently with the Australian Privacy Principles. How we store your personal information American Express stores personal information in a combination of secure computer storage facilities and paper-based fi les and other records.

We will take reasonable steps to securely destroy or permanently de-identify personal information when we no longer need it.

Our Privacy Policy For more information about how American Express Australia manages personal information, please see the American Express Privacy Policy.
21 Card Member Agreement Complaints, access, and corrections We endeavour to provide you reasonable access to the personal information we hold about you where it is legal, reasonable, and feasible for us to do so. There is no fee to request access to your personal information, however we may charge a fee to collate and provide your personal information with your consent.

To request access to your personal information, request a correction or make an complaint, please contact us via chat or call us on 1300 132 639 or write to: The Privacy Officer, American Express Australia Limited, GPO Box 1582, Sydney, NSW 2001 In the event we refuse to give you access to your personal information, or do not consider that your information needs correcting we will provide you a written explanation of our decision and your options of review.

Artificial Intelligence and Automated Decision Making We use artificial intelligence (AI), automated decision-making systems, analytical tools, and predictive models (including statistical and machine learning models) (“ADM Systems”) to assist with certain decisions and to support the delivery, security and management of our products and services. Our ADM systems analyse patterns and relationships in data to generate risk scores, classi fi cations, predictions, or recommendations. These systems help us assess the likelihood of certain outcomes (such as credit risk or potential fraud) based on patterns identi fi ed in personal information. Some of our decisions are made solely by ADM Systems, while others are supported or informed by ADM Systems and are reviewed or con fi rmed by our staff. Our ADM Systems may operate at different stages of your relationship with us, including when you apply for a product, during the ongoing management of your account, and in connection with fraud prevention, risk management, and marketing activities. We use ADM Systems where it is reasonably necessary to provide our products and services, to support our legitimate business activities (such as risk management and fraud prevention), or where otherwise permitted by law.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 22 Card Member Agreement Decisions we make using ADM Systems We use ADM Systems in connection with: • assessing eligibility and applications for Cards and other fi nancial products (for example, assessing the likelihood that you may be able to meet your repayment obligations). • setting and adjusting credit limits (for example, based on your fi nancial circumstances, account activity and repayment history). • assessing creditworthiness and fi nancial risk. • ongoing account monitoring and management, including spending capacity and risk management. • detecting, preventing, monitoring, and managing fraud, scams, and suspicious transactions, including in real-time (for example, identifying unusual transactions or behaviours that may indicate fraud). • identity veri fi cation and authentication. • providing customer service and support; and, • personalising or determining eligibility for certain bene fi ts, offers and promotions. Some decisions made using ADM Systems may have a signi fi cant impact on you. For example, the decision may affect your ability to access or use our products or services, meaning you may not have access to credit. This may include refusing or approving an application, setting, or adjusting your credit limit, restricting, or declining transactions, suspending, or limiting account functionality, or determining whether you are eligible for certain products or offers. Types of personal information used by ADM Systems The personal information used in our ADM Systems may include: • application information (such as income, employment, and financial details). • credit reporting information, including credit history, repayment information, and credit scores. • account and transaction information. • identification and contact information. • device, network, and behavioural information (such as IP address or indicators of unusual activity); and, • information obtained from third parties, such as credit reporting bodies or service providers, where permitted by law. We may also combine information from different sources to improve the accuracy and reliability of our assessments. How ADM Systems are used in decision-making Depending on the type of decision, decisions may be made solely by an ADM System or substantially using an ADM System (with human involvement). Some decisions are made using ADM Systems without mandatory human review. This may include: • automated approvals or declines of applications for products or services. • identifying transactions or activity that may be fraudulent or suspicious; and, • determining eligibility for certain offers, benefits, or promotions.
23 Card Member Agreement In these cases, model outputs are applied using predefined rules, thresholds, or criteria. In other cases, ADM Systems are used to generate scores, alerts or recommendations that are considered by our staff when making a decision. This may include decisions relating to credit limits, account management, or risk monitoring. In these cases, our staff may review available information and may override or adjust outcomes generated by ADM Systems where appropriate. Real-time decisions For certain decisions, particularly those made in real time (such as fraud, security, or risk controls), it may not be possible for a decision to be reviewed by a human before it takes effect. Further information If you have questions about how we use ADM Systems, or about a decision that has been made using these systems, you may contact us to request further information. We will take reasonable steps to provide additional information where appropriate. Governance and safeguards We do not disclose proprietary algorithms or technical details about our ADM Systems. However, we take reasonable steps to ensure our ADM Systems are appropriately designed, tested, monitored, and governed. We maintain governance and risk management processes for ADM Systems, which may include: • model risk management and oversight. • ongoing monitoring, testing, and validation. • processes designed to identify and mitigate potential bias or unintended impacts. • controls designed to assess accuracy, reliability, and appropriate use. • data minimisation, access controls, and security measures; and, • oversight of third party or vendor provided models, including contractual and governance safeguards.

Third parties American Express may receive commissions and other remuneration or benefits for selling financial products on behalf of third parties or for successfully referring a customer of American Express or a related company of American Express to a third party. Details of this remuneration are set out below: American Express identifies insurance providers and products that may be of interest to some of our Card Members. In this role, we do not act as an agent or fiduciary for you, and we may act on behalf of the insurance provider, as permitted by law. We want you to be aware that we receive commissions from providers and commissions may vary by provider and product. Also, in some cases, an American Express entity outside of the country may be the reinsurer and may earn reinsurance income. The arrangements we have with certain providers, including the potential to reinsure products, may also influence what products we identify. We do not require you to purchase any insurance product, and you may choose to cover your insurance needs from other sources on terms they may make available to you. Remuneration or Other Benefits Received by American Express Team Members All American Express team members receive a salary. Some team members may also receive commissions or other benefits in addition to their salary. The payment of commissions or other benefits generally arises where team members are engaged in roles which are related to providing advice or selling a financial product or otherwise affiliated with an area of American Express which is involved in the selling of a financial product or service. American Express team members may receive these commissions or benefits in one or more of the following ways: • payments for reaching sales targets generated either by their own sales or through the achievement of sales targets by their team or business unit; • payments for each policy opened or for each service provided; and • payments based on the total value of products sold or volume of sales transacted by an account opened by a team member.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 26 Card Member Agreement Benefits are usually monetary but may also be non-monetary. American Express pays monetary benefits directly to the eligible team member. Non-monetary benefits may include, amongst other things, shares, options, discounted (or prepaid) travel or accommodation and gift vouchers. Payment of Benefits to Those Who Refer Customers to American Express American Express may pay to related companies or external parties who refer customers to American Express a commission or other benefit. Such payments could be in the form of a one-off payment or other benefit, or otherwise a payment calculated as a percentage of the total amount of sales generated. Compensation Arrangements American Express has professional indemnity insurance and internal procedures in place which satisfy the requirements under s912B of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ('the Act'). The insurance covers losses incurred by individuals and small businesses arising out of a breach by American Express of its obligations under Chapter 7 of the Act. This policy covers the professional services provided by employees and representatives of American Express even where that employee or representative has subsequently left the employ of American Express. Telemarketing Companies We may authorise and pay telemarketing companies to provide financial services on our behalf from time to time - including the provision of general financial advice. For example, we may authorise a telemarketing company to call you to tell you about insurance products we offer or to speak to you when you call American Express. When providing these services, the telemarketing companies act on our behalf and not for you. The telemarketing companies may also act on behalf of other licensees including our insurance providers. For further details, please contact us. Payments to Telemarketing Companies You are not required to pay the telemarketing company for the services they provide, whether you buy insurance from them or not. All remuneration payable to telemarketing companies is paid by American Express or the insurance provider. The telemarketing company may be paid by way of a flat fee, a commission or reimbursement of their expenses. Telemarketing Staff Incentives and Bonuses Sometimes, a telemarketing company's employees may receive a bonus or incentive based on the employees' performance against sales targets and other performance criteria. This may include monetary bonuses or fringe benefits like gifts, vouchers, meals or entertainment. These benefits are paid by the telemarketing company and not by American Express. We monitor telemarketing sales closely and take steps to ensure that the level of service provided to you is not affected by such bonuses or incentives. Privacy and Personal Information American Express is proud of its reputation for, and commitment to, safeguarding information about its customers. The American Express Customer Privacy Principles have been in place for many years and provide a minimum standard, which applies throughout the American Express group of companies worldwide.

This document replaces and supersedes any Policy issued prior to the effective date. Important Things To Know About This Policy We have listed a number of important things (below) that You should know about this Policy. This information is not intended to be a complete list of all coverage sections, terms, conditions or exclusions under this Policy. Rather, the information is intended as a quick reference point to assist You in Your understanding of this Policy. Excess Where applicable, an Excess is applied for each Event. If a claim is covered, the Excess is first deducted from the amount We will pay and before any relevant depreciation and limits have been applied to the claim amount.
2 THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD Examples The below examples are provided for illustrative purposes only. Each claim will be assessed individually, based on the facts relative to the specific claim Example A – Excess applied: Example B – Excess and depreciation applied: Example C – Excess and depreciation applied to more than one Event: Anna books accommodation to the Sunshiny caravan park. Her Trip with the family is in summer, which is 3 months away. A week before the start of the family Trip, her son has an accident at school and breaks his leg. Unfortunately, he needs surgery and the Doctor confirms it’s best to be at home for the recovery. Anna paid $1,200 for the accommodation. The Excess is $250. a) Deduct the Excess of $250 b) Check the total cover limits and sub limits in the Schedule of Benefits. The amount claimable is below these limits. Calculation for the amount payable: (-Excess) + accommodation = amount payable (-$250) + $1,200 = $950 claim payment. Jane travels to Brazil and while in Brazil her laptop is stolen. She reports the theft to the police and provides Us with the required documentation. Jane paid $6,000 for her laptop 12 months prior to this Event. Jane’s Excess is $250. a) Deduct the Excess of $250 b) Establish original purchase price of the laptop: $6,000 c) Apply depreciation*: • 2.5% per month for 12 months = 30% depreciation. • 30% of $6,000 = $1,800 total depreciation. d) Establish current value of the laptop by subtracting depreciation from the purchase price of the laptop • $6,000 - $1,800 = $4,200 e) Check the total and per item limit shown in the Schedule of Benefits and select the lower of current value of the laptop or the item limit. If the per item limit is $2,500 which is lower than the current value $4,200, hence We take the lower number = $2,500. Calculation for the amount payable: (-Excess) + limit per item = amount payable (-$250) + $2,500 = $2,250 claim payment. Rob and his wife travelled to France for 14 days. On the 4th day of their Trip, Rob slips down the stairs at the hotel. Thankfully it’s not a major injury, but he did twist his ankle and needs to seek medical attention. He was billed $500 for the Doctor’s appointment including some scans and medication. On the 8th day, Rob had his laptop stolen, which was worth $1,000 when it was purchased 6 months ago. Unfortunately, on the last day of their Trip, Rob’s wife then lost her Smartphone worth $900 that was purchased directly before their Trip commenced. When they return to Australia, Rob submitted a claim for the 3 Events. As Rob and his wife had 3 Events during their Trip to France, an Excess would be applied to each of the Events (and Covered Persons). Claim 1: (-$250) Excess + $500 Medical costs = $250 claim payment. Claim 2: a) Deduct the Excess of $250 b) Establish original purchase price of the laptop: $1,000 c) Apply depreciation*: • 2.5% per month for 6 months = 15% depreciation. • 15% of $1,000 = $150 total depreciation. d) Establish current value of the laptop by subtracting depreciation from the purchase price of the laptop • $1,000 - $150 = $850 Calculation for the amount payable: (-Excess) + current value = amount payable (-$250) + $850 = $600 claim payment. Claim 3: (-$250) Excess + $900 Smartphone = $650 claim payment. *For depreciation details, please review Section G – Personal Baggage, Valuables, Money and Travel Documents Cover The applicable Excess amount is specified in the Schedule of Benefits. An Excess may also be a waiting period, which is the amount of time You have to wait until the benefit may become payable.
THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 3 Pre-Existing Medical Conditions This Policy does not cover any costs incurred from or relating to any Pre-Existing Medical Condition under Sections A – L (below). For example, it does not provide cover if You need emergency medical treatment overseas for an existing illness or if You need to Cancel Your Trip because a Close Relative’s existing medical condition deteriorates before You travel. If You have Pre-Existing Medical Conditions, this cover may not be right for You. Before You make Your Qualifying Travel Purchase, You should review this Policy to make sure it provides the right cover for You and Your health situation. Pregnancy & Travel Insurance Benefits It’s important to understand how Your travel insurance benefits under this Policy may be limited if You are pregnant. These are summarised below. When does the travel insurance cover You if You are pregnant? If You are pregnant, You will be covered for unforeseen emergency medical treatment whilst overseas up to 8 weeks before Your estimated date of delivery. However, You will not be covered for costs associated with the actual birth of Your child overseas or any pregnancy related medical conditions that You were already suffering before Your Qualifying Travel Purchase. For more information see – When are You Not Covered if You are pregnant? (below). Two key sections of this Policy that You should be aware of are:
- Section E - Medical Emergency Expenses Cover: You are covered for Events arising from or related to Your pregnancy when You are on an International Return Trip, if You have a sudden and unexpected Injury or Illness, which: a) occurs more than 8 weeks before Your estimated date of delivery; and b) is not otherwise excluded within this Policy.
- Section A - Trip Cancellation and Amendment Cover: You are covered if You have a sudden and unexpected Injury or Illness arising from or related to Your pregnancy that prevents You from going on the Trip or continuing the Trip, and which: a) is confirmed by medical evidence provided by a treating Doctor; b) occurs more than 8 weeks before Your estimated date of delivery; and c) is not otherwise excluded within this Policy. When Are You Not Covered if You are pregnant? You are not covered for any costs arising from or related to:
- any Pre-Existing Medical Condition;
- any past medical condition(s) relating to a previous pregnancy or if You have experienced pregnancy complications prior to Your Qualifying Travel Purchase;
- Your pregnancy under Medical Emergency Expenses Cover or Trip Cancellation and Amendment Cover within 8 weeks of Your estimated date of delivery;
- any costs under Medical Emergency Expenses Cover arising from childbirth or the health of a newborn child. This exclusion applies irrespective of the stage of pregnancy at which the child is born; meaning a newborn (whether premature or otherwise) is not considered a Covered Person under this Policy if the child was born on the Trip;
- any costs under Medical Emergency Expenses Cover arising from or relating to an abortion, unless an abortion is medically necessary to protect the health and safety of the mother following an Injury or Illness, as determined by a treating Doctor;
- fertility treatment or treatment associated with an assisted reproduction program including but not limited to, in vitro fertilisation (IVF). Exclusions Within This Policy As with all insurance, there are certain exclusions that apply. Some exclusions only apply to certain benefits under this Policy, while other exclusions apply to all claims. You should read the following: a) General Exclusions and General Conditions sections within this Policy, which apply to all claims. b) Each cover section includes information about what We cover and any terms and conditions and exclusions that apply to the cover section. To ensure You understand when We will pay for a claim, You should read each section carefully. You should make sure to check this Policy before You travel to make sure that You, and all the things You want to do, are covered.

For example, motorcycles, campervans and buses (except for mini buses hired for recreational purposes) are not covered. Fraud Chubb takes insurance fraud seriously. Creation or submission of false documents, or exaggerating a genuine claim is considered insurance fraud. Such behaviour has a negative impact on the cost of insurance for all customers. We use Our dedicated special investigations unit at Chubb to detect and investigate selected claims daily. When the evidence supports it, Chubb will report suspect claims to the police and dedicate resources to assisting any potential criminal prosecutions.
6 THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD Australian Law Your Policy is governed by the laws of the State or Territory of Australia where Your Home is.

If We do this, the provision of emergency assistance by Chubb Assistance will not in itself be an admission of liability. Considerable effort is made to locate, assess and reassess medical facilities and other services worldwide. However, the medical standards, sanitary conditions, reliability of telephone systems and facilities for medical services differ from country to country and accordingly, it is not always possible to have control over these factors.

THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD 9 American Express Card at the date of Qualifying Purchase American Express card at the date of claim Event Which policy applies? Your American Express Card Account product associated with this Policy. A different American Express card with no insurance benefits. This Policy will not apply as you changed Your American Express Card. This means there is no cover under this Policy. See Example A below. Your American Express Card Account product associated with this Policy. A different American Express card with different insurance benefits (i.e. where you upgrade or downgrade to a different card). This Policy will not apply as you changed Your American Express card. The policy of your new American Express card will apply, subject to the terms, conditions, limits and exclusions of that policy. See Example B below. A different American Express card product with or without insurance benefits. Your American Express Card Account associated with this Policy. This Policy will apply. Cover is subject to the terms, conditions, limits and exclusions of this Policy. Card Suspension or Cancellation Your American Express Card Account product associated with this Policy. Your American Express Card Account has been cancelled or suspended. This Policy does not apply; there are no insurance benefits available to you as your American Express Card Account has been cancelled or suspended. If You change Your American Express Card Account product, or Your American Express Card Account is Cancelled or Suspended If You change Your American Express Card Account product to another card offered by American Express (e.g. a card downgrade or upgrade), you will not be entitled to cover under this Policy and the insurance benefits will stop. The card you hold at the date of the claim Event will determine which insurance benefits you have. If your new American Express card comes with insurance benefits, you may be entitled to cover under that new policy. You should always check before changing to another American Express card whether that card comes with insurance benefits, and the terms and conditions associated with any such insurance benefits to ensure the level of cover is right for You. If your American Express Card Account is suspended or cancelled, then there is no cover under this Policy. Please see the table below for more information.
10 THE AMERICAN EXPRESS PLATINUM CARD Example A – No American Express Card Account in place at the date of claim Event Example B – Different American Express card in place at the date of claim Event Joan holds an American Express Card Account that has travel insurance cover and makes a Qualifying Travel Purchase for a Trip that she intends to take later in the year. Before she starts her Trip, Joan decides to cancel her American Express Card Account. Upon cancelling her American Express Card Account, Joan does not apply for another American Express card. Subsequently, Joan travels and unfortunately her luggage is lost in transit to her scheduled destination. Joan does not have any entitlement to make a claim under the Policy for the lost luggage as Joan had cancelled the American Express Card Account, which means Joan did not hold a valid American Express Card Account at the date of the claim Event and therefore no longer has access to the travel insurance cover. Tim makes a Qualifying Travel Purchase for a Trip using his American Express Card Account that has travel insurance cover. Prior to travelling, Tim arranges with American Express to downgrade his card to another American Express card with a lower fee that has less travel insurance benefits. On the Trip, Tim suffers an Injury. The previous American Express Card Account which Tim held included Medical Emergency Expenses cover, but the new card held by Tim at the date of the claim Event does not include Medical Emergency Expenses cover. Tim cannot therefore make a claim for Medical Emergency Expenses as the policy in-force at the date of the claim Event does not include this type of cover.

Group Policy with Chubb American Express Australia Limited (ABN 92 108 952 085, AFS Licence No. 291313) of 12 Shelley Street, Sydney NSW 2000 (“American Express”) is the insured under the Group Policy. Under the Group Policy entered into between American Express and Chubb, You get access to a range of insurance benefits detailed in this document. American Express has the right to terminate the Group Policy, cancel or suspend any insurance benefits, in which case You will no longer receive the insurance benefits. We will notify You as soon as reasonably possible if We take any of these actions. Under the Group Policy entered into between American Express and Chubb, You get automatic access where You have met the eligibility requirements set out in the Eligibility Table, to the benefits detailed in this Policy provided by Chubb as the insurer. You are not charged by Chubb for these benefits and can access the relevant benefits if You are a Card Member. This Policy replaces and supersedes any Policy previously issued prior to the effective date. Section 48 of the Insurance Contracts Act Access to this insurance is provided to You solely by reason of the statutory operation of section 48 of the Insurance Contracts Act 1984 (Cth). You are not a contracting insured (i.e. You cannot vary or cancel the cover – only American Express can do this) and You do not enter into any agreement with Us. American Express is not the insurer, does not guarantee or hold this right on trust for You and does not act as Chubb’s agent (that is, on behalf of Chubb). Neither American Express nor any of its related corporations are Authorised Representatives (under the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)) of Chubb or any of its related companies. No Advice American Express is not authorised to provide any advice, recommendations or opinions about this insurance on behalf of Chubb. No advice is provided by Chubb on whether this insurance is appropriate for Your needs, financial situation or objectives. You should read these terms and conditions carefully and contact Chubb if assistance is required. Any general advice that may be contained within this Policy does not take into account Your individual objectives, financial situation or needs. You need to decide if the limits, type and level of cover are appropriate for You. Updating this Policy Information in this Policy may be updated where necessary. A copy of any updated information is available to You at no cost by visiting the website at

Chubb will issue a new document or a supplementary document to American Express to advise of a change to the existing terms and conditions or to make any necessary corrections. Other Insurance If You are entitled to receive a benefit or make a claim under another insurance policy in respect of the same loss as Your claim under this Policy (for example a home and contents policy, an alternative mobile phone policy or the American Express Travel Insurance Policy Wording and Product Disclosure Statement), then Chubb is not liable to provide indemnity under this Policy until the amount of any indemnity under the other policy is exhausted. Therefore, any insurance cover under this Policy in respect of the same loss will only be excess insurance cover over and above the applicable policy.

d. Have checked-out of the property.
The points will be awarded on the referrer and referee account 5 to 7 business days after check-out. Radisson Rewards member may earn up to 50,000 bonus points per calendar year through Refer a Friend. When the 50,000 bonus, points earned is reached, members can still refer friends into the program but will not earn points. If the referrer already reached 50,000 bonus points earned through Refer a Friend, the referee will still earn the 1,000 points after their first Eligible Stay.
b. Earning Points in Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners: Points can be earned by travel agents, travel arrangers, meeting and event planners, and other business professionals who book rooms on behalf of someone else and/or plan meetings and conferences at Participating Properties.
i. Earning Points for Room Bookings: Travel Agent and Travel Arranger members may earn 10 points per dollar spent for Eligible Bookings at participating properties when booking travel on behalf of others. If you are booking a stay at a Participating Property in the Radisson Hotel Group portfolio in Europe, Middle East, Africa or Asia-Pacific, you will need to be a member of Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners and enter your 16-digit member number in the Global Distribution System (GDS) or be logged in to the Radisson website to earn points for that booking. Additional instructions on how to book and earn points can be found at: https://www.radissonhotels.com/en-us/rewards/business. Points will be issued after the guest’s stay has been checked out. A maximum of 9 rooms can be booked at a time. A reservation of more than 9 rooms will be considered as a group reservation and Event Bookings earning proposition will be applied. Nights or stays booked for someone else or associated with a meeting or event do not count towards your Elite Tier.
ii. Earning Points for Event Bookings: Meeting & Event Planner and Travel Arranger members may earn 5 points per dollar spent for Event Bookings (based on the total spend on the meeting room hire, food and beverage and bedrooms charged to a master bill up to a maximum of 250,000 points per event and 250,000 per group room booking.) Points for event bookings may not be earned where prohibited by applicable law, rule or regulation. You must request to earn points for Event Bookings at the time the meeting, event or convention is booked by including your name and Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners member number on the contract with the Participating Property. Event Bookings must be applied to one master bill to be eligible for points. Only one Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners member may earn points for Event Bookings. You do not have to attend the meeting or event to be eligible to earn points for Event Bookings. You do not have to be the contract signer, final payer or contract negotiator to be eligible to earn points for Event Bookings. Some services and amenities may not be provided directly by the Participating Property, and these and other charges, including charges for cancellation, attrition, and other payments, may not be eligible as Event Bookings points earning. Please allow 6-8 weeks after the event has been paid for in full for posting of points to Member’s account.
c. Redeeming Points:
i. Generally: Radisson Rewards and Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners members may redeem points at Participating Properties or through our Partners. Points may be redeemed for the benefit of the Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners member or for another individual as a gift. Members can book an Award Night as a gift for their friend or family member but they cannot sell it for a profit. Except for transfers of points expressly allowed in these Program Terms or with Radisson’s written consent, points may not otherwise be sold, exchanged, bartered, brokered, transferred, purchased, auctioned, or given away. Redemption options are subject to change from time to time without notice in our sole discretion.
When redeeming points, you will be required to verify your Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners account information. The corresponding number of points will be subtracted from your account at the time the transaction is initiated, and there must be a sufficient number of points in your account at that time for the transaction. Points in two or more different accounts may not be combined for redemption. Redemption transactions may be approved or revoked in the sole discretion of Radisson.
ii. At Participating Properties:
1. Award Nights: Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners members may redeem points for Award Nights at Participating Properties, subject to availability. Award Night reservations must be made in advance, and must be made through the Radisson Hotels website, the Radisson Hotels mobile app or by contacting the Contact Center. Award Nights may not be combined with other certificates, discounts, packages, or promotional offers and are not commissionable, including without limitation commissions to travel agents, unless specified as a separate promotion. Award Nights apply to a standard room with standard occupancy. Additional occupants are subject to the Participating Property’s standard extra person charges. In avoidance of doubt, even if a member makes a booking for 3 people on an Award Night redemption for a standard room, a member will still need to pay for the extra person. Award Nights are subject to each Participating Property’s cancellation, guarantee and deposit policies. Points equal to one night of an Award Night reservation will be deducted from your account if your reservation is not cancelled in accordance with the Participating Property’s cancellation policy. Any incidental charges in connection with an Award Night are the sole responsibility of the member. Members can book an Award Night as a gift for their friend or family member, but they cannot sell it for a profit. Members will be able to redeem points for hotel stays up to 600USD per night via website, app or Contact Center. A member can redeem points for hotel stays over 600USD at the check-out desk.
2. Pay with points: Members can redeem their points in the hotel for services consumed during the stay, from Meetings and Events or for the stay itself at checkout, paying a minimum of 10 points.
iii. Through Partners: Radisson Rewards members may redeem points with our Partners. Redemption opportunities and requirements with each Partner vary, are not available where prohibited by law, are subject to change at any time, are governed by these Program Terms, and are subject to additional terms and conditions as required by an individual Partner. Partners are independent entities and Radisson Rewards is not responsible for the nature or quality of products or services provided by any Partners, nor for any solicitation or marketing efforts by any Partners. You are responsible for directly checking and complying with a Partners’ terms, conditions, and privacy and usage policies. We are not responsible for and assume no liability for the terms, changes or discontinuances of Partners’ terms, conditions, privacy and usage policies, products or services.
iv. Donating Points: Radisson Rewards members may donate points to certain non-profit organizations, as determined by us from time to time in our sole discretion. Any other donation, transfer or gift of points is prohibited and will not be honored. Donated points are not tax deductible.
d. Transferring Points:
i. Between Members: Radisson Rewards members may transfer points within the program to a maximum of 5 members per month. Members who have points transferred to them may not receive points from more than 5 accounts in one month. The maximum number of points a member can receive into their account from points transfer per month is 100,000 points. To complete or receive points transfer, a member must be a member of Radisson Rewards for more than 30 days.
ii. Upon Death Points belonging to a Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners member who is deceased may be transferred to the account of the deceased member’s beneficiary(ies) in our sole discretion. The deceased member’s membership in Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners must have been in good standing at the time of death. The transfer request must include documentation showing proof of death, such as a death certificate, and proof of authority to make the request, such as court documents or the decedent’s will. Requests must be made within one (1) year of the date of death or the deceased member’s account will be closed and all points forfeited.
e. Expiration of Points: If there is no points activity in your Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners account for any 24-month period, we may, at any time and in our sole discretion and without notice or liability to you, void and cancel any or all of your points.
f. Missing Points: You are responsible for verifying that points are properly credited to your Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners account. Any claim for points not properly credited must be received by Radisson with supporting documentation within twelve (12) months of the date of the claimed accrual of such points.
g. Value of Points: Except where required by law, points have no cash value and do not constitute member property. Accumulation of points does not entitle members to any vested rights with respect to any awards or the Program. As a Radisson Rewards or Radisson Rewards for Bookers and Planners member, the only right you acquire in points is the opportunity to surrender them for redemption in accordance with these Program Terms.

f. Exit of Participating Property: If a Participating Property exits the Loyalty Program for any reason, a member will not earn points or qualifying nights for stays at such Participating Property, and any Awards, other promotions and special offers will no longer be valid after the date on which the Participating Property exited the Loyalty Program, even if the reservation for a stay at the former Participating Property was made prior to that date. If a hotel ceases to be a Participating Property after an Award Night reservation is made, but before the actual stay, Radisson will use reasonable efforts to have the hotel honor the Award Night reservation but cannot and does not guarantee that any such Award Night reservations will be honored. In addition, at the discretion of Radisson, Award Nights may not be available for reservation at a hotel once it is determined that such hotel will be leaving the Radisson system or otherwise will cease to be a hotel in the Radisson system regardless of the length of time before such hotel leaves the system.
