• Highest tier: Pinnacle – Members who spend S$200,000 within 12 consecutive months receive this upgrade. Benefits: all benefits of Premier members, plus access to Paragon Club Members’ Lounge, plus a whole host of other perks, incluing birthday privileges, birthday vouchers, and more (see full benefits here).

Complimentary Prestige level Membership with Amex

From now until 28th February 2023, holders of the Amex Platinum Charge Card, are invited to sign up for Paragon Club membership, of which they will receive a complimentary upgrade to Prestige tier.

Usually, shoppers at Paragon Club need to spend S$15,000 to qualify for Prestige tier.

So, getting this in the bag without a minimum spend requirement is a pretty sweet deal.

Paragon Club Lounge

Personally, the nicest benefit from the membership – is the access to Paragon Club Lounge itself.

They do have all day coffee and tea services, which is awesome. After a full day of shopping, if you need a break, it’s the perfect place to chill and get a drink.

There’s also some meeting rooms (subject to availability) that I’ve used for private online meetings and for work. It’s recommended to call and book in advance, but I’ve never had a problem securing a room with a few days notice.

Confirmation of Application

Outcome of Application

For me, I received an email confirming my Prestige status within two weeks of the card application. Joy!

Of course, I had to visit the Paragon Lounge after this. 

Bonus: the husband came along too. Prestige members can bring in up to ONE guest with you when visiting the lounge. 

Caffe Latte and my new Senreve Aria bag.

The Paragon Club Prestige tier membership is valid for a 12 month period. After that, members have to spend S$15,000 in a year to maintain the membership.

While I doubt if i’ll truly spend that much in a year at Paragon (unfortunately I do not really shop there), for the next 12 months, I’ll be enjoying coffee here when I do head down to Orchard road area.
