Attract New Customers with These Tips From American Express

June 08, 2023 By: Calculating time...

As a business owner, growing your business and attracting new customers is important. We’re here, in partnership with American Express, to help make that easier with numerous tools and resources available to you at no additional cost to set your business up for success. 

Let Your Customers Know You Accept Digital Payments

In recent years contactless digital payments have become a preferred way to pay for most customers.

As less consumers carry cash and more reach for their card or mobile wallets, Amex has developed complimentary signage, at no extra cost to Amex-accepting merchants, to let your customers know that you accept contactless transactions and that they can tap, pay, and go.

Visit amex.ca/signage to order complimentary business signage, industry-specific items like reserved signs and cheque presenters, decals to promote contactless payments, downloadable signage for your website, and so much more.
