OPEN from American Express announces new ways to save money when you use any American Express business charge card or business credit card. Details from a
press release issued today can be found below:
"OPEN from American ExpressSM today announced it has launched several new partners in the OPEN SavingsSM program, providing exclusive savings in the U.S. just by using the American Express® Business Card. Courtyard by Marriott®, FedEx Kinko's Office and Print Centers, Fairfield Inn by Marriott®, Hyatt Hotels & Resorts®, Ruby Tuesday Restaurants, SpringHill Suites by Marriott® and Wingate Inn® hotels join existing industry leading partners, including FedEx, Hertz and AT&T in this unique program.
Unlike most small business credit card savings programs, OPEN Savings eliminates the need for offer codes, coupons or program enrollment and provides automatic savings to business owners from well-known brands. In addition, the savings are combinable with other marketplace offers or volume discount pricing that an individual business may already receive from program
partners.
In just eighteen months, OPEN Savings has delivered more than $75 million in savings to American Express Business Cardmembers.
'For small businesses pressed for time and weary of short-term offers that require coupons or offer codes, OPEN Savings delivers simple, automatic and combinable discounts just by using the Card,' said Ed Vittoria, vice president, OPEN from American Express. 'OPEN is proud to extend our breadth of OPEN Savings partners and deliver millions of dollars of savings to our
small business Cardmembers every month.'
