  • Is using my mobile to make payments secure? 
    Yes, using your mobile is a safe and secure way to pay.
    This is because: You authorise each payment, using either a passcode or biometric scan. Your Card details aren’t saved to your phone. Your device is instead given a unique token identifier that is sent to the Merchant, which American Express authenticates as being linked to your Account. Only American Express can see your Card details. 
  • What should I do if my phone gets lost or stolen? 
    There's no need to panic or worry in the unfortunate event of losing your phone. Your Card can still be managed by logging into your American Express Online Services, even if you don't have direct access to your phone. You can remove the Card from your wallet instantly via Online Services. Click here to suspend your Card, remove it, or to manage your wallet.
