INDIVIDUAL BILLING OPTIONS
With Individual Billing, each Cardmember receives a monthly billing statement detailing his or her charges during the previous period. You can select from 10 billing cycles to coordinate billing dates with your company's payroll periods or reimbursement schedules. Payment options include:
  • Individual Payment - Each Cardmember submits an expense report in accordance with your company policy and remits payment for all charges directly to American Express.
  • Company Payment - Each Cardmember submits an expense report in accordance with your company policy. Your company issues a single cheque to American Express for all authorized charges, streamlining your payment process. Cardmembers can pay American Express directly for unapproved and personal charges.
CENTRAL BILLING OPTIONS
Central billing accounts can be used to consolidate expenses charged to individual Corporate Cards or as a standard payment vehicle for specific categories of expenses. Many of our central bills can be implemented as a complement to our Corporate Card individual billing options. Some of these billing options include:
  • The Business Travel Account (BTA) - Intended for air and rail charges, the BTA can be used by any travel agency that your company designates.
  • The Airline Billing Account (ABA) - A proprietary billing option offered exclusively to American Express® Business Travel clients, the ABA is designed for the central billing of air and rail charges and features a pre-reconciled monthly billing statement.
  • The Central Purchasing Account (CPA) - can be selected as an option for your employees that frequently purchase goods and services on behalf of your company, but do not incur Travel and Entertainment expenses. It has the ability to link to any of our Corporate Cards programs.
