Merchant Streamline Payments & Processing

Merchant Streamline Payments & Processing

When dealing with any of our Merchants, we believe in keeping things simple. Here you'll find the basic information you'll need once you have set up an American Express Merchant Account.

Settle Payments and Disputes

 

It's easy to reconcile American Express payments with your own records. We'll pay the net amount we owe you. We arrive at this amount by deducting the Discount Rate and Goods and Services Tax  on each transaction, prior to settlement, rather than asking for payment at the end of the month. We may also offset any adjustments to your Account, such as credits, refunds or Chargebacks.

Reconciling Your Account Statements

 

If you are receiving payment via direct deposit into your designated bank account, a weekly statement will be sent to you for your records. If you are receiving payment by cheque, a transmittal mentioning the summary of charge number, Discount Rate deducted and the net amount payable to you will accompany your payment cheque.

Reduce Fraud and Chargebacks

 

Many disputed transactions are the result of fraudulent activity related to lost, stolen or counterfeit Cards. By being alert to fraudulent transactions you can help to reduce subsequent Disputes and Chargebacks.

A "Dispute" is a Charge for which a claim, question or complaint has arisen. A Cardmember is not the only one who could initiate an investigation to the Merchant. American Express can also raise inquiries to Merchants.

A "Chargeback" is our reimbursement from you for the amount of a Charge subject to such right; it refers to the amount of a Charge subject to reimbursement from you (sometimes called "Full Recourse" in our materials).
