Amex Express Checkout

Client-Side Implementation

availability
Amex Express Checkout has been replaced with the latest unified checkout experience offered through Visa known as Secure Remote Commerce (SRC). If you were previously using Amex Express Checkout, you will need to integrate with SRC. SRC is currently in a limited release to eligible merchants, and the API is subject to change. It was introduced in Android v2, iOS v4, and JavaScript v3 of our Client SDKs. Contact us to request access to the release.

If no profile data is found for the specified nonce, you'll receive a payload object that matches the following:

JavaScript

{
  error: {
    message: 'Profile not found'
  },
  fieldErrors: [],
  status: 404
}

note
This will be an error in the payload argument, not the err argument; this is because it is an error from American Express, not directly from Braintree.

Profile payload

The profile object contains a single field, amexExpressCheckoutCards, which is an array containing the customer's Amex Express Checkout card. There will only be one item in this array. The card will contain the following fields:
