    Default Send money with American Express

    American Express is going head to head with Paypal by launching a service that allows you to send money from one person to another. The new service is called SERVE.

    I signed up for this and it is pretty cool. They sent me a card in the mail, which looks an awful lot like my Zync card. I can use it at any store that accepts AmEx.

    When you say they sent you a card, do you mean an Amex card that you can use for purchases? This sounds like it is essentially a reloadable prepaid American Express debit card.
    Disclosure: I am a moderator/paid staff of this site, which does have advertising relationships with some credit cards that are discussed. Regardless, anything I say is my honest opinion.

    Current Cards:
    American Express: Blue Cash, Simply Cash Bank of America: WorldPoints Platinum Plus Chase: Amazon, British Airways, Cash Plus Rewards, Freedom, Ink Cash Citi: Thank You Premier, Dividend Platinum Select Discover: More
    Primary Everyday Card: American Express Blue Cash
    Primary Travel Card: Citi Thank You Premier

    Yup that is exactly what it is. You can link it with your checking account and transfer to and from the card. It is used where ever AMEX is accepted.
