Amex Expands Virtual Payment Solution for US Business Travelers

American Express has expanded its virtual payment solution in partnership with Conferma to simplify business travel expenses for US-based customers.

The updated Business Travel Account with Virtual Payments (BTA) allows travellers to use Amex Virtual Cards for approved on-the-go expenses, including meals, retail purchases, and rideshare services.

Through the Conferma mobile app, customers can create and manage virtual cards, adding them to a digital wallet for contactless and online payments. The cards come with spending limits, time restrictions, and approval workflows.

American Express claims this solution reduces out-of-pocket spending and simplifies expense reconciliation through BTA statements, reporting, and digital receipt capture.
