Update - Quick Update: We have rebuilt the file that goes out to AMEX on a daily basis. We are hoping that the file is accepted tonight, so any account that has been recently updated and contains all of the required AMEX fields will board as expected on the Amex side. We will keep you updated and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Monitoring - Effective May 28th, AMEX made some changes to required data that they need to receive from the processor for compliance reasons:
*Requirement: American Express requires that any merchant processing American Express transactions must be boarding at American Express.
Before changes made on May 28 AMEX allowed merchants transactions to process without registration.
*After Changes: New merchants: American Express will allow transactions to process for 10 days, after the 10 days merchants will start receiving declines on transactions.
Existing merchants: Any merchant that did not get boarded with American Express will start receiving declines on transactions.
AMEX current issues:
Compliance was working on a project to identify accounts who processed AMEX transactions that did not meet the new AMEX data requirements.
In essence, we made changes to accounts and inadvertently changed the data on incorrect accounts by accident, in an effort to get the accounts in compliance for AMEX. The data has since been corrected.
Below fields need to be added via TT 42, for any account that is not able to process AMEX transactions:
Required AMEX fields:
Account ID
Business Legal Name
Doing Business As (DBA) Name
Business Address
Business email address (cannot contain any special characters, except for "@")
Business City
Region
Business Postal Code
Business Country Code
Currency Code
Merchant Category Code (MCC)
Authorized Signer First Name
Authorized Signer Last Name
Authorized Signer Country Code
business Phone number
Fed TAX ID or SS#
Any account that does not meet these new requirements, will see that their processing has been disabled by AMEX.

ACH Authorization Compliance Reminder Oct 1, 2026 00:00-00:15 MDT
Global Payments Inc. has been asked to remind all partners and their sub-merchants that NACHA rules require obtaining authorization to originate ACH entries on customer’s bank account and to retain that authorization for a period of at least 2 years.
We have been provided a breakdown to remind merchants of their requirements and the potential fines that may be assessed should they be found not to be compliant.
That document can be found here:
