Small businesses have been hit the hardest due to COVID-19. Even though many have started to reopen it will take some time before returning to those pre-COVID numbers. So AMEX and Amazon have launched a co-branded credit card to help small businesses in the UK make it easier to protect and manage their finances.
“63% of British small businesses say cash flow issues have led them to delay purchasing goods and services they need to run their business”
Research done by American Express and YouGov
There are 2 card options: Amazon Business American Express® Card and the Amazon Business Prime American Express® Card. Both cards allow small business owners flexible benefits and payment optionality letting them decide between earning rewards or adjusting payment terms on eligible purchases.
