Return is what each $1 of spend is worth with points valued at 1.99 CPP. That's below the 2.55 CPP Qatar Airways Privilege Club benchmark because Amex Membership Rewards points, worth 1.99 CPP, transfer to it 1:1, and a point you can transfer is worth at least the points it becomes.

Lounge access

oneworld business lounges in the first year via Qatar Airways Privilege Club Gold (oneworld Sapphire) status

New cardholders get Qatar Airways Privilege Club Gold status (oneworld Sapphire) for the first year. Gold status includes business class lounge access when flying Qatar Airways or another oneworld airline, which has included Admirals Clubs and Alaska Lounges on same-day oneworld flights. After the first year, Gold has to be requalified with Qpoints from flying or card spending, so the lounge access usually ends.
