American Express for public sector
American Express has adapted its services to better meet the needs of the public sector. Exclusive to Elavon, this program allows government agencies and qualified higher education institutions to accept American Express the same way as the other card brands - one statement for all cards, same speed of pay and a single point of contact.
Offer your constituents more choice
Expand the card types available to your citizens to pay fees, fines and taxes. With no back-office changes required, your agency can leverage existing reconciliation processes to accept American Express.
