No, you cannot use American Express (Amex) on Costco.com.
Costco.com accepts a limited number of payment methods, and American Express is not one of them. The primary cards accepted are Visa, Mastercard, and debit cards.
If you’re a Costco member looking to make purchases online, it’s essential to have an accepted card ready. This limitation applies to both in-store and online purchases at Costco.
