Platinum-level benefits

When you use the Alaska USA Visa® Platinum Credit Card, you are eligible for a number of platinum-level benefits.

What kind of benefits are available to me as an Alaska USA Visa Platinum cardholder?

You will earn ScoreCard™ reward points for purchases and can benefit from Travel Advantage programs helpful when you're on the road. These programs are detailed in “ScoreCard Rewards” and “Travel Advantage” information sheets.

In addition, there are a number of other benefits available through Visa.

Visa Roadside Assistance. 24-hour a day, pay-per-use Roadside Assistance Program expressly for Visa cardholders. For $59.95 per service call, the program provides towing, tire changing, jump starting, lockout service, fuel delivery, and winching.

Travel Accident Insurance. Use your Alaska USA Visa Platinum Card to purchase your travel tickets and you and your dependents automatically have $500,000 in coverage for accidental death or dismemberment while traveling.

Warranty Manager Service. Purchases you make with the Alaska USA Visa Platinum Card are eligible for warranty registration and extended warranty protection. Send in your receipts and warranty information and it will be on file with Visa. Then you can make one simple toll-free call to arrange for repairs. Extended Service Agreements also available for purchase.

Travel and Emergency Assistance. 24-hour a day assistance and referral service that includes emergency message service, medical referral assistance, legal referral assistance, emergency transportation assistance, emergency ticket replacement, lost luggage locator service, emergency translation service, prescription assistance and valuable document delivery arrangements, and pre-trip assistance.

Auto Rental Insurance. Additional (secondary) insurance that covers damage to your rental car. (Rental car fee must be charged to your Alaska USA Visa Platinum Card; must reject any waiver of liability for damage available from the rental company).

Lost or Stolen Card Reporting. One call to the Visa Assistance Center will block your account to prevent fraudulent charges, and to arrange for a replacement card to be delivered to you. Customer service agents are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by calling 1-800-Visa-911.  Overseas travelers can dial collect 1-410-581-9994. 

Emergency Card Replacement. In the U.S. a card can be replaced and delivered in as little as 24 hours. Outside of the U.S., it is often replaced as quickly as one business day. Call the Visa Assistance Center at 1-800-Visa-911.

Emergency Cash Disbursement. With this service, you can receive up to $5,000 in emergency cash (up to your approved credit limit), usually within 24 hours. Once your emergency cash request has been approved and processed, you can pick up the cash at a convenient bank or credit union branch location or at an Emergency Service Location. Call the Visa Assistance Center at 1-800-Visa-911.

How do ScoreCard, Travel Advantage and Visa programs relate to each other?

Your Visa Platinum card is rich with benefits from three separate programs. This gives you the maximum value for your individual preferences. For example, it provides travelers with a variety of benefits but also offers merchandise rewards for those who would rather stick close to home.

Please note that as an added benefit, there is overlap in coverage for rental cars (you are covered by both Travel Advantage and the Visa Auto Rental Collision Damage Waiver Program when you rent a car with your Alaska USA Visa Platinum Card).
