How we measured this

The US readings on this page come from RealUptime's own Ashburn and San Jose probes against American Express's public endpoints. They are not user reports, and they are not American Express's own status page.

See American Express's full check readings, the 90-day history by region, or the outage tracker methodology.

The US readings here are taken from that country and show the time of the last one, but American Express has not yet accumulated enough continuous history for us to publish this page to search engines.
