No, the American Express Card is not needed to open an FX International Payments account, nor is it required to make a transaction. We will electronically debit the wire transfer amount, including any fees, from your authorized U.S business bank account each time you make a transaction.
No, there is no need to set up a separate bank account. We will electronically debit the wire transfer amount you request from your existing U.S business bank account. You may also set-up multiple bank accounts from which we can electronically debit your various wire transfers customized to your business needs.
We offer wires and drafts in foreign currencies, including most exotic currencies. We also offer US dollar wires, and convert foreign currency wires, cash letters, and collection items into US dollar value.
For wire and draft transfers, FX International Payments can automatically send confirmation e-mails to the initiator of the payment and beneficiary. This can save you the hassle of informing your beneficiary or any other parties that a payment has been initiated.

2. American Express will award one (1) Membership Rewards point for every USD $30 equivalent of foreign currency wires
that your business sends using the FX International Payments service. The maximum award per transaction is 4,000

Bonus ID A9PE.
For example, if you buy an outgoing wire in the amount of EURO 10,000, and if we charge you USD 11,000 for those
EUROS, then we will award 367 Membership Rewards points (11,000 divided by 30 = 367 points). This exchange rate is for
illustration purposes only.
In order to benefit from this offer, your business must first designate an existing American Express Card that is enrolled in
the Membership Rewards program to which we will award the Membership Rewards points. Once we award points to the
Cardmember’s Membership Rewards program, the Cardmember decides how to redeem those points, not you. If you
designate an American Express Card that is enrolled in the Corporate Membership Rewards program, then the Corporate
Card client decides how to redeem those points, not you.
Other terms and conditions apply. See the Membership Rewards enrollment form or ask your FX International Payments
Representative for more information.
