Amex adds 1M Airbnb listings to travel rewards, boosting cardholder perks amid premium card competition

American Express has partnered with Airbnb to add over 1 million Airbnb listings to its travel rewards platform, allowing cardholders to earn membership points on bookings. This expands Amex's hotel portfolio and lets Platinum cardholders apply their lodging credits to Airbnb Luxe stays, plus get statement credits on Airbnb Experiences. The move enhances Amex's premium card benefits as it competes for high-end customers, following a recent annual fee hike and new lounge expansions. It reflects ongoing consumer demand for travel and luxury experiences despite rising costs.

American Express shares trade at USD 321.60 as of Oct 22, 2026 19:11 WIB, down 0.62% for the day and closer to its 52-week low of USD 292.27 than its high of USD 384.82. In contrast, Airbnb is priced at USD 173.60, just off its 52-week high of USD 190.50 and holding steady with a minimal 0.05% decline. This partnership news arrives while American Express sees predominantly sell orders on Pluang, unlike Airbnb which attracts mostly buy interest.
