Who should choose Premium over Gold?

Choose Premium if you:

• Fly SAA regularly (lounge access alone is worth thousands annually)
• Spend R100,000+ annually
• Value unlimited lounge access
• Need R6m travel insurance
• Can afford the R2,185 annual fee + R25k/month income requirement
• Prefer faster miles earning (R6 vs R6.50 per mile)

Stick with Gold if you:

• Fly occasionally (2–3 times per year)
• Spend under R100,000 annually
• Don't need unlimited lounge access
• Prefer a lower annual fee (R754 vs R2,185)
• Earn R6,600–R25,000/month

Take control of your financial life

Premium cards require premium income. Ensure you meet the R300,000 annual income requirement and can justify the R2,185 annual fee through actual travel usage.
