Online Casinos in Michigan Accepting American Express

How the American Express Card Works

With a plethora of American Express card options available, players have the flexibility to choose between a standard debit card option or play on credit with an Amex credit card.

An Amex credit card differs from the standard debit card in that it allows players to deposit via credit with a predetermined interest rate dictated by the terms of their American Express card and account type.

It's worth noting that not all Amex cards can be used at MI online casinos; the list of ineligible cards includes but is not exclusive to:

• Small business cards
• Corporate travel cards
• Prepaid cards
• Bank co-branded cards

Therefore, players looking to use their Amex card primarily for online casinos should look for one of the 'Personal Cards' on offer.

How to Withdraw Funds from an American Express Casino

Unfortunately, due to regulations concerning fraud and money laundering, Amex cards are not currently eligible to be used as withdrawal methods at most online casino sites. However, with continuous advancements in payment technology and regulation, we hope this will soon change.

If you intend on using Amex as your primary deposit method, ensure the casino has a suitable withdrawal option for you before committing to a deposit. You can check the casino's official site for this information or take a look at one of our detailed casino reviews for an in-depth analysis.

Deposits Processing Times and Fees with Amex

A great benefit of using Amex is their $25,000 max limit for deposits, giving you great flexibility in your deposits. Casinos usually have a $20 minimum limit for deposits, too.

Depositing using Amex is nearly instant and takes up to a few minutes at most. Online casinos in the US will not charge you for depositing with your Amex card, although American Express may impose a 2-5% fee for a cash advance, depending on the type of card you use.

Any other associated fees for credit will be laid out in the terms and conditions of your Amex plan and should be fully understood before making a transaction.
