American Express Casinos
American Express is a card network with fewer gambling merchants than Visa or Mastercard. This page is about Amex credit/charge cards — not Interac, not prepaid Visa.

Figures are typical cashier ranges at Canadian-facing casinos. The operator’s own banking page wins if it disagrees.
Why Amex is its own URL
Visa coverage is already on Visa casinos. Amex acceptance is a subset: some cashiers never show the logo; some show it and then fail at the acquirer.
How Amex deposits behave
Gambling transactions may post as a purchase or as a cash advance depending on the issuer. Cash advances mean extra fees and immediate interest.
Withdrawals
Payouts to Amex are uncommon. Expect e-wallet or bank withdrawal even if you deposited by Amex. Bank debit is documented on Debit Card.
Prepaid vs Amex
Do not confuse this with Prepaid Visa casinos. Prepaid is a loaded Visa BIN. Amex is a charge/credit relationship with a different network.
