How to Log-In

This website allows American Express Card-accepting businesses to add, view, or edit their business listing information on the Shop Small Map.
This is important because the Shop Small Map is a central directory for Card Members to discover both brick-and-mortar and online businesses that accept American Express Cards.

You will need to input the requested information and follow the prompts.
This includes entering your business’ last 6 digits of tax ID and business zip code. Please note, if your federal tax ID was not used to set up your Payment Provider/Payment Processor account, please use the last six digits of your Social Security Number.

Your Payment Provider/Payment Processor may share your business data with American Express to enable payment processing.

You can find your tax ID number in one of the following ways:

a. Check your W-2 form

b. Check your old tax forms

c. Check recent tax forms
Please note, if your federal tax ID was not used to set up your Payment Provider/Payment Processor account, please use the last six digits of your Social Security Number.

We understand time is important to you and we try our best to get your listing up as soon as possible. Updates to your listing can take up to 3-5 business days to reflect. For more information on how to edit your business information, you can visit the American Express Maps FAQs page here.

If you logged in with a Merchant Number or Access code, the location assigned to that code will display. Please enter an additional Merchant Number or Access Code to see your other locations.

Shop Small Map and Small Business Saturday

Shop Small is a nationwide effort to support and celebrate small businesses every day and everywhere. Proudly backed by American Express, it’s a movement that backs all kinds of small businesses — whether it’s a corner store, local contractor, or online boutique. American Express has created Shop Small materials that can help your business stand out and reach and attract new customers throughout the year. You can find these materials here, and learn more about the Shop Small Movement here.
Founded by American Express in 2010, Small Business Saturday is the cornerstone American Express's Shop Small efforts. It is a special day when we can show our support as a nation for small business owners and our communities.

Small Business Saturday is celebrated every year on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. This year, Small Business Saturday is on November 26th, 2020. Mark your calendar! For more information about the day, go to ShopSmall.com/about.

The Shop Small Map is a filtered experience within American Express Maps. The Shop Small Map only displays U.S. businesses that meet certain Shop Small eligibility criteria. The criteria are outlined in question 9. Note that businesses on the Shop Small Map also appear on American Express Maps.

To appear on the Shop Small Map, Merchants must meet the following Shop Small-eligible criteria:

Must be an American Express Card accepting Merchant.

Must be located in the 50 United States, District of Columbia, American Samoa, Armed Forces Pacific, Federated States of Micronesia, Guam, Marshall Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Palau, Puerto Rico, or the U.S. Virgin Islands. For brick-and-mortar businesses, this means that you must have at least one physical business location within these territories; for online-only businesses, this means that you must have a service area within these territories.

Must have at least 1 but no more than 25 locations (for brick-and-mortar businesses) and have no more than $5M in American Express annual charge volume.

Must not be part of a franchise brand that has more than 250 stores; Additionally, if a franchise brand has more than 25 corporate-owned stores, then the entire brand is excluded.

Must be enabled to accept American Express Cards. Merchants who have been with us for more than 12 months must have had at least 1 transaction in the last calendar year.

Businesses in these industries are excluded: Government agencies, public administration, gas stations and businesses located on the same premises as a gas station, travel agencies, charities, non-profits, peer-to-peer payments, crowdfunding, trade associations, shopping property management companies, direct sellers, and political organizations.

In some cases, if a merchant processes American Express® Card payments solely through a third-party processor (for example, those that offer the ability to accept credit cards through a card reader attached to a mobile device) or as part of an affiliate program, you may be excluded from participating on American Express Maps, depending on whether or not the third party provides sufficient data for American Express to determine if your business meets the foregoing qualifications. Additionally, the merchant may not automatically display on the Shop Small Map and may have to opt-in.
