Overcoming International Payment Challenges

American Express Corporate Cards can change how mid-sized companies do business by strengthening their purchasing power. Our cards can improve cash flow while delivering a multitude of other benefits and rewards.

Continental Global Services Limited & Buyippee, one of Hong Kong’s pioneering e-commerce companies, sources products from around the world and makes most of its payments in foreign currencies. Banks were unwilling to offer Continental suitable credit, making it hard for company founder Mr. Stanley Lee to expand his business or deal with contingencies.

Mr. Lee asked American Express for a payment solution that could handle international payments in a timely and cost-effective way and provide the credit his company needs for pre-payment services. American Express provided Continental with a corporate card solution to pay their individual overseas suppliers directly without incurring prohibitive foreign exchange charges while enjoying our 51-day credit-free payment terms.
