The Amex Advance Platform
This first-of-its kind platform allows for the in-depth analysis of American Express
closed-loop transaction data alongside partner and publicly available consumer
data in order to develop insights about the future buying behaviors of a
desired audience within the U.S. population.
We are able to ingest, process and integrate data from a number of sources:
- American Express Data: Anonymized and aggregated Card Member transaction data
- Partner Data: Your CRM or campaign response data
- Third Party Data: Publicly available consumer data
All data is securely encrypted in the platform to help keep consumers' data safe. All Card Member data is anonymized prior to being used to develop the insights that drive our audiences, so personal details are protected.
We do not share any personal information of our Card Members with our business partners in this process. No names or contact information of any kind, including whether or not a consumer is an American Express Card Member, is accessible to our partners.
To further preserve the privacy of its Card Members and partners’ customers, the platform is hosted by an independent third-party, Acxiom, so the data can be analyzed in a segmented environment.
1 American Express serves as a Card issuer and a merchant acquirer, and maintains direct relationships with Card Members and merchants. This enables the company to operate a closed-loop network and provide marketing programs to merchants and special offers and services to Card Members. This model differentiates the company from the competition and allows access to payment transactions from both the Card Member and the merchant perspective.
