American Express Offers 2 Plans:

Discount Rate - Using this plan, you only pay American Express a small percentage of each transaction your customers make with the Card. There is no set monthly fee. Rates start at 2.95% to 3.25%
 
Flat Fee - Eligible merchants pay a monthly flat fee of $5, with no additional charges. Unlike the discount rate pricing plan, you do not pay an amount for each American Express sale. Businesses must have less than $5,000 in annual American Express sales, and submit, authorize, and receive payments electronically to be eligible for this plan.
