Blue fee clarification

The official application PDF checked on 11 October 2026 lists €36 per year (€3 per month). The card page still mentions a waiver with €3,000 annual spending, but the PDF no longer includes it. We therefore do not present the waiver as a confirmed benefit. Check the terms that apply to your application or existing membership with AMEX. An effective date for existing cardmembers has not been confirmed.

Main benefits

  • Flexible Membership Rewards
  • Purchase protection and money-back guarantee
  • Supplementary travel accident insurance when travel or accommodation is paid with the card
  • Two supplementary Blue Cards at no extra cost

Things to consider

  • No lounge programme is included with this card.
  • Membership Rewards transfers do not earn Flying Blue XP.
  • Insurance cover, exclusions and payment requirements depend on the policy. Check the official terms for your trip.

Who could this suit?

Cost-conscious users who want flexible points without paying for lounge or premium travel benefits.

Judge the recurring contribution against benefits you will actually use. A welcome bonus is temporary and does not change the match score.
