Confused on Barclaycard

I just got off the phone with Barclay's today. My e-mail stated that I have the Arrival Plat. I called and the rep told me the following:

 

-89 AF

-2x miles on all purchases

-40k miles after 3k spent in 90 days.

 

Seems like I got all the perks of the World MC but at the Plat level. Am I missing something here? If that's the case, what does the World MC offer over what I already get?

Starting Score:TransUnion: 698 (12 FEB 2010), Equifax: 674 (12 FEB 2010)
Current Score (Lender Pulled):TransUnion: 684 (12 SEP 2016), Equifax: 696 (12 SEP 2016), Experian: 679 (12 SEP 2016)
Goal Score:All scores All scores at least 700+ by December 2017!!

Re: Confused on Barclaycard

Those are Barclay Arrival benefits, unrelated to Platinum vs. World Mastercard.

 

The only difference between the 2 cards are the WMC benefits.  Here's some examples of the benefits http://thepointsguy.com/2013/09/top-10-most-valuable-world-mastercard-benefits/
