Hard to find any place that takes AMEX, period. Worse for their gift cards. Nobody takes 'em, including the banks.

You may want to read your merchant agreement with Square. They don't allow firearms related stuff.Originally Posted by condomboy
flat rate fees for Square... I have an ad on the EE for a Bushnell Elite 6500 4.5-30x50 that I would be happy to accept your AMEX for...
This was talked about roughly a month ago when (IIRC) ATRS got an account and used it at a gun show and had their account terminated.

Stores could circumvent credit card restrictions by selling store credits or gift coupon codes. Then the customer can buy whatever they like with the store credit or gift coupon code.

Used to be that we "Worldproofed" our children. Now society wants to childproof the world.
A lot of people refuse to deal with Amex in Canada as their fees are 3 to 5 times that of MasterCard, Visa, And even square, That itself can be a business owners margin between competitive and losing money, I honestly don't own and don't blame vendors here for avoiding amex personally
They are not 3 to 5 times that of Visa & Mastercard. They are considerably higher....up to 1.5%.
I have an Amex gold and barely ever use it. Travelling, it's useless, in SE Asia anyway... Even here in Canada, half the places I want to use it, won't take it. I'm ready to cancel it, as I really don't see why it's so great.
Amex is my favorite CC to use, with my Air mile/per 10.00, every year, i got at least one maybe two Airlines ticket paid by them for Europe, this is non-negligeable... JP.
AmEx is my favorite card as well. Yeah, I know, it's not taken everywhere. But I earn points from Costco. Last year, I got $335. Which makes for a pretty good food run for free from there.
Yeah Amex is pretty good benefit for the cardholder, but pricey for the merchant. I guess it just drives the price up though and you pay one way or the other.
