While most credit cards come with no annual fee, the Centurion Card has a $2,500 annual fee and a one time $5,000 initiation fee for the first year. And if you ever hold one, you'll know immediately since the card is made of titanium, not plastic.

How to qualify
The American Express Black Card is available by invitation only. You can't just hop online and find a Centurion Card application.

If you meet those requirements (it will take at least a year), then all you need to do is wait for the invitation to arrive in the mail.

How to get one

In order to get that elusive invitation for the Centurion Card, you need to be a card holder of the American Express Platinum Card. The Platinum card is your stepping stone to the Black card. Once you've got the card it's time to start spending. If you are a business owner, you can start running your advertising expenses through the card. For many businesses, that alone will run up the required $250,000/yr tab.
