There are two ways you can play this: Either apply for the Gold as a separate card, or, apply for it as a supplementary card based on your Platinum cardmembership. The latter means there’s no fee, ever, but really there’s nothing stopping you from just cancelling the card and reapplying for it if you go down the other route.
The gold supplementary card on the platinum charge account will be a gold charge, and without any of the stand-alone gold perks (2 lounge credits, double points on airline bookings, etc).
