We're now in the month of October, which means good news for American Express Platinum Card® holders: Your card's Q4 perks are now available.

If you haven't heard, the recently-updated Platinum Card® comes with two great new perks: $100 in statement credits each quarter for eligible purchases at Resy restaurants, plus $75 each quarter for eligible purchases at lululemon (terms apply; enrollment required).

That means you get up to $175 every three months -- up to $700 a year -- for dining and athleisure gear. Here's how to start taking advantage.

Get up to $700 a year in quarterly perks

Yes, the updated Platinum Card® comes with an $895 annual fee (see rates and fees) -- $200 higher than before. But it also added almost $1,500 in new and expanded perks, more than seven times the annual fee increase.

Two great new perks worth mentioning are:

  • $400 in annual Resy credits -- Get up to $100 back each quarter on eligible dining purchases at Resy restaurants (enrollment required).
  • $300 in annual lululemon credits -- Get up to $75 back per quarter on eligible purchases at U.S. lululemon stores and on lululemon.com (enrollment required).

Between the two, you've got up to $700 a year in value. Amex's quarterly calendar breaks down as:

  • Q1: Jan. 1 - March 31
  • Q2: April 1 - June 30
  • Q3: July 1 - Sept. 30
  • Q4: Oct. 1 - Dec. 31

That means as of Oct. 1, you've got a fresh $175 worth of credits to take advantage of. Whether you're looking to save on date night or some fall-focused exercise gear, the Platinum Card® can help.
