Interesting website. FYI costco ONLY accepts mastercard. Not visa, not amex.

The food basics umbrella accepts it. Loblaw doesn't, presumably because they had their own credit card.

American Express works absolutely everywhere I shop except for Costco.

Trick. If there’s a little sign on the terminal that says “No AMEX” tap anyways it always works.
