Card company says exclusive U.S. pact with bulk retailer to end in March
2016
The Wall Street Journal

American Express Co. said its merchant agreement with Costco Wholesale Corp.
will end next year, amid reports that the bulk retailer is negotiating with
other credit-card companies.
American Express has been the only credit card accepted at Costco’s U.S.
stores.
“Taking a very disciplined approach, we began discussions on a possible
renewal with Costco well in advance of the contract expiration. However, we
were unable to reach terms that would have made economic sense for our
company and shareholders,” Kenneth I. Chenault , chairman and chief
executive of American Express, said in a news release.
The card company said the pact would end March 31, 2016. Shares of American
Express fell 2.5% in premarket trading to $83.90.
Media reports late last year indicated that Costco was negotiating with
other credit-card companies, including Capital One Financial Corp and
MasterCard Inc. The change already has occurred in Canada, where Costco last
year replaced American Express with those other two card companies.
Costco’s deal with American Express had benefits for both sides. American
Express was the only credit card accepted at a store that had nearly $113
billion in sales in its most recent fiscal year; meanwhile, in exchange for
that exclusivity, Costco likely negotiated a lower discount rate from the
credit-card company. |

效应。
所以costco用任何卡都是临时性过渡性的。这个amex看的狠透
因此本侠不准备指责Amex CEO。他们显然已经尽力了
