What changed
July 15, 2026 update: CLEAR and American Express public pages now line up at $219 for eligible CLEAR+ credits. CLEAR's Amex cardholder FAQ lists statement credits up to $219 per calendar year for eligible Platinum, Business Platinum, Corporate Platinum, Green, and Hilton Aspire cards.
CLEAR's public CLEAR+ page also lists annual CLEAR+ membership at $219. That resolves the earlier public-page mismatch, where some renewal notices showed $219 while public Amex/CLEAR pages still showed $209.
The story is now a confirmed public-page update rather than only a renewal warning. The practical action is still to verify your own card's current benefit terms and renewal amount before counting CLEAR+ at full face value.
Who is affected
This is mainly relevant for cardholders who use an Amex CLEAR+ credit on cards such as The Platinum Card from American Express, The Business Platinum Card from American Express, American Express Corporate Platinum, American Express Green, or Hilton Honors American Express Aspire.
If your CLEAR+ renewal shows $219, the current public CLEAR and Amex/CLEAR pages now match that amount for eligible cards. If your account shows a different price, add-ons, family pricing, or a card-specific limitation, treat your own account terms as the source to verify before renewal.
This is also a useful annual-fee review reminder. CLEAR+ can be valuable for some frequent travelers, but it should not be counted at full face value unless you actually use it and the statement credit reliably offsets the amount you expect to pay.
What to check before renewal
Before your next CLEAR+ renewal, still check three places rather than relying on memory.
First, log in to CLEAR and look at your renewal amount, renewal date, and whether any family or friend add-ons are billed separately.
Second, open the current benefit page for your exact Amex card. CLEAR's public Amex FAQ now lists up to $219 per calendar year for eligible cards, but card-specific terms and enrollment status still matter.
Third, keep the eligible card as the payment method if you are relying on the statement credit. Save the CLEAR charge and the Amex benefit page until the credit posts.
How Perkmon users should track it
This should now be tracked as a confirmed $219 public-page credit for eligible Amex cards, not merely a $219 watch signal against old $209 public language.
In a tracker, update the benefit amount to $219 only for cards whose current terms show that amount. Add a renewal note to verify the CLEAR account price, any add-on pricing, and the expected statement-credit posting window.
That keeps annual-fee math honest. A credit that technically exists still has lower personal value if you rarely use CLEAR+ lanes or would not otherwise pay for the membership.
Sources to verify
The current update comes from public official CLEAR and American Express benefit pages.
CLEAR's Amex cardholder FAQ now lists statement credit up to $219 per calendar year for eligible cards: CLEAR Amex cardholder FAQ.
CLEAR's public price page lists CLEAR+ at $219 annually: CLEAR+.
The American Express Platinum benefit page is here: Amex Platinum CLEAR+ Credit. The earlier watch signal was covered by Doctor of Credit.
Bottom line
The public $209 mismatch is resolved on the pages checked for this update. Eligible Amex CLEAR+ credits now line up with the $219 CLEAR+ annual price.
Before renewing, still verify your own CLEAR account and exact Amex card terms. In Perkmon or any tracker, update the amount only where your card's current benefit page supports it, then keep the item open until the statement credit posts.
