Access Bank has launched two new consumer credit cards; the Access Bank American Express Gold Card and the metal Platinum Card to boost payment across countries.

The cards are the first American Express Cards to be issued in Nigeria. By launching these cards, Access Bank improves its overall offering to its retail and private bank customers, who can now enjoy the Membership Rewards loyalty programme and a wide range of travel and lifestyle benefits.

In 2019, Access Bank signed an agreement with American Express to start acquiring merchants, enabling businesses across the country to accept payments from international American Express Cards. The bank is now ready to issue the first American Express credit cards in West Africa.

The Gold and Platinum Cards showcase the international American Express card design, featuring the distinctive ‘Centurion’ icon. Similar products are also issued outside of Nigeria by American Express or third parties licensed by American Express and provide Card members with extensive rewards and benefits. Through Access Bank, this credit card experience is now available in Nigeria.

By diversifying our services to facilitate payments, we can connect more consumers to the SMEs and retail businesses across the country who we know are the engine of economic growth.”

President, Global Network Services at American Express, Mohammed Badi said: “by granting Access Bank a license to launch the first-ever American Express Cards in Nigeria, American Express’ presence in Africa is becoming even more vibrant.
