American Express Boosts Virtual Card Capabilities for US Business Customers

American Express has expanded its virtual card capabilities for US business customers through its American Express @ Work platform. The company partnered with payment technology provider Conferma to introduce additional features that support a wider range of business expenses.

The updates allow businesses to have greater control, security, and flexibility when it comes to their commercial payments. This includes options for employees who do not hold traditional corporate cards.

The move is part of American Express's focus on digital tools for commercial payments and adoption across more day-to-day spending categories. By embedding virtual cards in @ Work and the Business Travel Account with Conferma, American Express aims to capture more B2B volume inside its network and reduce leakage to other payment methods.

The expansion of virtual card tools aligns with American Express's role in connecting businesses, employees, and suppliers. This update is part of its broader commercial payments offering in the Consumer Finance industry.
