Both the Robinhood Platinum and American Express Platinum cards offer $800 in annual travel credits. However, the Robinhood card's $150 bi-annual flight credit is considered more easily usable than the Amex Platinum's $200 annual airline incidental fee credit. For hotels, Robinhood offers $250 bi-annually for premium hotels, while Amex offers $300 bi-annually for hotels booked through specific programs.
“And then on the Robin Hood card, you get $150 every six months for flights, which is a total of $300 a year. So that's easier to use, but it's $500 less than the AMX card.”
“And then you get $250 every six months for hotels, which is a total of $500 a year. So that's $200 more than the AMX card.”
“So it's a little more like, um, AMX's hotel collection than fine hotels and resorts.”
