How do pending transactions work on my American Express Account?
Pending Transactions are deducted from your available credit immediately but are not included in your Account balance. The charge only becomes part of your Account balance once the merchant submits the transaction amount to us.
Pending Transactions will normally remain on your Account for up to four working days, however on occasion some transactions can remain for longer.
