That's too bad. Integration on the merchant side would be a rich vein to mine, too, especially given the differential in Amex card fees. The risk is potentially reducing their swipe fees, but I don't see that as big threat. People can use visa anyway. But presenting a lower-cost merchant option, with a relatively distinct customer profile, alongside Amex as a pitch to merchants may open doors
