American Express

American Express is integrating its virtual cards with Coupa Pay's corporate business spending platform for clients in the U.K and Australia by the end of 2019, with plans to extend the service in the U.S. in mid-2020.

While American Express initially lost customers after JPMorgan Chase introduced the popular Sapphire Reserve premium card in 2016, the firm said it's seen a 60% increase in growth in Platinum accounts.

New tech lets American Express instantly issue cards to immigrants; the end of Libor raises concerns about financial stability; regulators shutter banks in Kentucky and Ohio; and more from this week's most-read stories.

Newcomers to the U.S. tend to have a hard time getting credit cards because they lack credit history here. Amex has deployed technology from a fintech, Nova Credit, that could change this.

The card networks’ new buy button, called "click to pay," is merely a stepping stone to providing a foundation for pervasive, invisible payments.

American Express has updated its classic Green card with a new set of travel and dining perks and a significantly higher annual fee.

Following months of preparation, Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover announced the launch of "click to pay," a new streamlined checkout process that functions similarly at all participating e-commerce sites.

Zachary Wasserman will succeed Mac McCullough, who is retiring at the end the year.

Because such a high number of new cardholders were paying fees for premium cards, Amex is earning subscription-like recurring revenue.

American Express is adding a new dimension to its year-old partnership with PayPal by giving credit card customers more options for splitting a restaurant check and paying with loyalty points.
