Mirror Design by American Express: A New Era for Cardholders in Japan

American Express is thrilled to announce the debut of its innovative Mirror Design for the Platinum Card and American Express Business Platinum Card in Japan, following its exciting reception in the United States. This incredible design, launched in September of last year, reflects a stunning, mirror-like finish that is sure to leave a lasting impression.

Beginning from September 30, 2026, at 1:00 PM through February 1, 2027, cardholders will have the opportunity to apply for this limited edition card design. With a yearly fee of 165,000 yen (tax included), the Mirror Design promises an extraordinary experience tailored for individuals and businesses alike.

The launch of the Mirror Design marks Japan as the first country outside the United States to feature this unique aesthetic. As a reflection of personal moments and shifting landscapes, this card doesn’t just serve as a payment tool; it embodies the cardholder's individuality and values, showcasing different facets for various occasions.

American Express provides not only a premium card experience but also an extraordinary range of benefits. The Platinum Card and its business counterpart offer exclusive perks at over 1,900 highly selective luxury hotels worldwide, including two free breakfasts, free room upgrades, and 4 PM late check-outs, through the Fine Hotels and Resorts program. Furthermore, cardholders can access Centurion Lounges across 33 airports, including Haneda Airport, ensuring premium support from departure to arrival.

In July of this year, the personal Platinum Card underwent an exciting renewal. Enhancements included a complimentary one-night stay gift at select premium hotels for those who maintain usage of the card, and an airline credit worth 100,000 yen that can be redeemed for international flight purchases, contingent on usage status. Additionally, cardholders are eligible for a Global Dining Cashback program, allowing 50% cashback on dining expenses, up to a maximum of 40,000 yen, at over 2,000 participating restaurants across 16 countries. More features spanning shopping, digital entertainment, sports, arts, and music amplify the cardholder’s everyday experiences.

The American Express Business Platinum Card is tailored for medium-sized business executives and self-employed individuals who wish to enhance their business operations. This card not only aids in expense management but also offers additional privileges for travel and dining expenses, allowing business leaders to focus on their core responsibilities. Services such as the Platinum Secretary Service support travel arrangements and dining plans, while a complimentary pair of overnight stay vouchers is available when renewing the card at select hotels.

During the promotional period, existing members can also switch to the Mirror Design by paying a fee of 7,700 yen (inclusive of tax). This limited-time design encapsulates the essence of both private and professional moments, making it a must-have for cardholders seeking a blend of elegance and functionality.
