I love my Amex, but like mentioned by @6272jac, lots of places, especially small merchants won't accept it because they complain about the fees. This means I always need to have a backup visa - just in case. Let's not forget though that the UK is a country where your average overpriced corner shop rejects card payments below 5/10 pounds or charges a fee. Crazy example is one of my local car washes, charging 2 pounds for an 8 pound car wash. I just avoid these places like a plague - I not gonna support any business which forces me to pay by cash in 2023.
@jz5791 Жыл бұрын
Not a small business owner but it's because the card vendors charge like 2-3$ a transaction minimum. So if you buy 8$ car wash that cost the business 2-3$ in labor and long term costs per wash is their calculation if they make 4$ profit well if it's minus 2-3$ well then they are basically working for visa or the cc companies. They aren't trying to be greedy. Also most people love their local small business where those people spend their money locally vs large out of town companies profit leaves to the owners. And usually large distributors are used for inventory

But at the same time it lets you "pay over time" for certain charges, which was not a thing when I originally got the card. I swapped it at some point to the now-discontinued AmEx Zync, because of a lower annual fee.

In Asia I find that Amex is typically accepted at the major / tourist / high-end venues and areas, but in the broader areas that are more native and working-class in orientation (the greater portion of the region), I find Visa to be much more commonly accepted. I think that Amex figured out that they could not compete with Visa and MC on broad terms, so they aimed for an affluent, status-symbol market positioning.

If you’ve never had it before, you can easily get 100,000+ points as a signing bonuses which is the equivalent of $1,000 or more.

As a small business owners, Amex has been by far the most flexible card I have ever used. I use business platinum almost exclusively now except the other ones I use are Amex Business Plus and Amex business gold for different rewards categories (I spend 7 figures each year and don't pay a single cent in interest). I started off with Capital One Spark Business but it went from 30k limit to 50k limit at most and it got to the point where I had to pay it off 3-4 times a month to keep using it. With Amex I have never been declined for anything ever. 50k purchase? all good. 80k? no problem. 200k test charge from a distributor to make sure I'm not just pulling their tail was instantly approved. The last one I was really surprised to be honest but ever since then I've never bothered to use any other card. Capital One /Chase have declined me for much less.

The rental car needed gas, but our Americanized minds figured gas stations are always open so we’ll just get some on the way. Turns out we couldn’t find an open one and were nervous that we’d get stranded. My mom called the AmEx global assistance line and within minutes the clerk somehow found a truckdriver to come bring us gasoline in a gerry can, and fill the rental up. Paid for by AmEx. Because of that you bet your bottom dollar I will never use any other card, and if a place doesn’t take AmEx they’re not getting my business

My belief is that making a wise investment is a fantastic way to save money for the future as well as a way to generate passive income. Those who make poor mistakes early in life regret them later in life. But, if done alone, investing may be challenging and risky. For this reason, I suggest consulting experts for advice (financial advisors). The difficulty lies in effectively employing it, not just watching videos and reading investing books.

Had an Amex when I lived in France. The customer service is unmatched. Talking to them on the phone you feel appreciated as a customer. And I never had an issue when claiming anything covered by my insurance, whether it was an issue with a rental car or my home door locked from outside. I was really sad when I had to cancel my card because I left France.

Millennial here. I'm enjoying my AMEX Platinum experience so much I bought stock in AMEX. I was reluctant because of the really expensive annual fee, but if you put in a little effort you can easily offset the annual fee with things they offer for free. Also, their customer service is freaking amazing. It's become the card I use everyday.

About 30 years ago, I somehow got stuck in Budapest with no bank/ATM/etc. capacity and just an Amex Card. Back then, a lot of Europe was still cashed based and I just wasn't prepared for that. Amex just gave me about $500 in Hungarian Forints and UK Pounds (About $1100 in 2023 dollars) and just put it on my card balance for me to pay back when I returned to the USA. No fees and no fuss at all. Today, I drive well over $70k annually through my business and personal Amex cards.

Primarily AMEX isn't accepted due to the fact that their fees are too high.

I use both for every single thing I can including bills and then pay them off each month never charging more than I can pay. I just hate that some places won't accept it like Costco and I shop at Costco at least once a month for supplies. I still remember years ago when Costco pushed Amex and even had the tents outside to sign up.

I’m just in it for the rewards. Over $1000 in cash back per year for me.

Yeah and it comes with a 95$ annual fee too! There are better options out there. CC is a predatory business, pay your balance on time!

I have an Amex corporate card. In the UK where I live, many places don't accept it. When I travel in Europe, few places accept it. So for business trips, my personal Visa card gets far more use!

Perks are great but their customer service is next level by far. I have 4 cards with AMEX and it's my preferred choice when choosing what to pay.

Amex is also a status brand like Apple, which has a Halo effect. Visa or MasterCard unlikely to disrupt Amex's business model since JPMorgan's Sapphire card have yet to show a big enough of an affect on Amex. And the Sapphire card have been out in the industry for already 10 years.

I got my first Amex card at 20, I've been with them for 3 years now, and I can only say great things about them. It's a product that will be in my wallet forever.

What makes American Express different is that it is both a card issuer and a card network. Unlike card issuers such as Chase or Bank of America and card networks such as Visa or Mastercard, American Express serves both the role of servicing accounts and processing transactions.

@@NealIRC Because Amex is a ripoff for dummies. They pay annual fees for the privilege of using the card no one accepts. It's like Discover, but for entitled pretentious people who want their ass kissed. Amount of cringe in these comments is ridiculous. They're like a cult followers.
