They'll spend more money at your restaurant.
So that would be the argument for accepting Amex.
And as someone who carries a lot of Amex cards, I would say it used to be much more the case that a restaurant might not take Amex or a retailer wouldn't.
But I can't think of the last time in the US that I've had a problem using an American Express card.
So overseas, I think that can be a little bit more of a challenge.
So I would say if you want one credit card only, and you're going to travel a lot internationally, it would be hard for me to make a case that it would be an American Express.
But it's certainly easier than I think it has been in the past.
And it hasn't really caused me any issues recently.
Yes.
I remember a restaurant in Brooklyn that was the same.
And I think the way that negotiation would work is Amex would come in and say, we'll give you an even better rate if you exclusively take Amex.
And so, I mean, that just seems to be the obvious reason why a restaurant would do that.
Otherwise, it wouldn't make any sense.
So they say, you know, we have such great cardholders with tons in Malibu and New York.
If you just exclusively take us, we'll give you an even better rate.
And so I have been to one restaurant.
I don't know if they still do that, but that has happened to me once as well.
So this is actually changing a lot.
And being in California, I didn't really notice the changes as much as other states have.
And so in many states now, you can just charge a fee.
