dswhite Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Here's a section of the new new Costco / Citibank Visa card agreement.

Kirk W Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 I have often wondered just what COSTCO and Sam's Club get from the card companies that brings them to accepting their use in the store? Clearly there is something quite different in the card agreements that they have from those of merchants in general. I would shop more at those stores if they would accept cards that I already have. As it is, only my debit card is accepted as they do still accept those from other card systems. Good travelin !...............KirkFull-time 11+ years......

Once Costco changes over to the VISA card, as I understand it, you will be able to use any VISA card at their stores...you just won't get the Costco-specific reward points that the Costco VISA card will provide.

skp51443 Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 What I think they are getting is a reduction in the credit card transaction processing fees, the amount that Costco/Sam's pays to the card company for each purchase.

StarDreamers.us Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Sam's Club now takes American Express. Seems like they just swapped cards, Safe Travels!

Kirk W Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 Sam's Club now takes American Express. Seems like they just swapped cards, But don't they require that it be their American Express card and not just any AmEx? Good travelin !...............KirkFull-time 11+ years......
