Instant payments on Amex

[Oscar]

Is there any option to make instant payments on Amex cards?

In general it's taking 1-2 days for the payment to reflect.

HDFC bill pay is instant but the first time you have to add your Amex card as a biller which takes 1-2 days.
or try Paytm, its instant for almost all the cards.

I can second @captaintorchtm 's comment. HDFC does indeed instantly settles amex payments.

You may also try the UPI method.

Cred instant settles on Amex based on my experience.

Due to the recent MCC changes, if I pay my AMEX bill through:

1. HDFC Bill Pay using HDFC Platinum DC, will I get the 1% CB or not?
2. SBI Unipay using HDFC Platinum DC, will I get the 1% CB or not?
