New Feature Enables Card Members to Easily Add
a Card to their Facebook Accounts for Future Purchases on Facebook
and Messenger
American Express today announced a new Add a Card feature for
the Amex bot for Messenger. This feature helps enable eligible U.S.
Consumer and OPEN Card Members to add their Card and billing
information to Facebook for purchases on Facebook. After adding a
Card to their Facebook accounts, Card Members can easily make
in-game purchases, purchases on the Shop sections of business’
Facebook pages and participate in Messenger commerce
experiences.
“This most recent step in our long relationship with Facebook
demonstrates just how quickly American Express can iterate new
features and develop innovation with great partners,” said Dave
Wolf, vice president, Digital Partnerships & Development,
American Express. “The speed of our tech development continues to
allow us to meet our Card Members where they are, and we look
forward to the additional benefits we can deliver to Card Members
on this powerful channel.”
“This new feature comes as Facebook and Messenger introduce new
commerce initiatives,” said Kahina Van Dyke, Facebook’s Director of
Global Commerce and Payments Partnerships. “We’ve seen commerce
play an increasing role in how people interact with one another and
we’re excited to see our partners at AMEX continue to create new
ways to enable people to make seamless purchases with this new Add
a Card feature.”
American Express has worked closely with Facebook to ensure that
Card Member account data is provided to Facebook via the Amex bot
for Messenger in a safe and secure manner.
To enable the Amex bot for Messenger, Card Members can connect
an eligible Card to Messenger at m.me/AmericanExpressUS by using
their AmericanExpress.com user ID and password. Card Members can
easily add their Card to Facebook by choosing to do so when
connecting their eligible Card to Messenger.
