Amex Express Checkout

Overviewanchor

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.

Amex Express Checkout is a service that allows American Express card members to use their Amex credentials to make purchases on a merchant's website.

It's currently available to most merchants who are domiciled in the US or who process Amex transactions through an account directly with American Express. Only US card members are eligible to use Amex Express Checkout at this time.

How it worksanchor

When a customer pays with Amex Express Checkout, American Express sends a merchant-specific card number that is linked to the customer's physical credit card. We store this card number in the Vault and send you a nonce you can use to create transactions.

Setupanchor

  1. Configure Amex Express Checkout in the Control Panel
