Access Bank Partners American Express To Expand Cards Acceptance In Nigeria

Access Bank and American Express have launched a partnership to broaden the acceptance and usage of American Express Cards in Nigeria. This places Access Bank as the first full service bank to acquire merchants that will accept American Express Card payments in the country. The partnership will enable American Express Card holders use their cards at a wider range of merchant locations when they spend time in Nigeria for tourism, business or visit friends and family.

International American Express Card holders will be able to withdraw cash from Access Bank ATMs. Local merchants will now have the option to accept American Express through Access Bank, thereby not only encouraging increased merchant business activity but also offering travelling American Express Card holders the opportunity to transact using their preferred method of payment.
