If you are wondering how to do that, then believe me, it is a very simple process and can be completed in just a few minutes. If you do not know the right way to do so, then you can follow the steps that I am going to explain in the section to follow. 

But, before taking any such action, we suggest you to think one more time and make sure that the person you are going to add to your AMEX card is a trustworthy person. Once you decide that, you can take on the next step to get the things done. 

Steps to add an authorized user to your American Express account 

If you have the correct AMEX Login credentials, you can definitely complete this process in just a few minutes. Here are the steps that you must follow in a sequential manner to add the users: 

  1. Open a web browser of your choice 
  2. Now, visit the official website of American Express 
  3. Followed by this, enter your AMEX login credentials to sign into your account 
  4. After this, you need to navigate to the "Useful Links" section 
  5. Then, select the "Add someone to your account" option 
  6. Enter the complete details of that person 
  7. Type his Social Security Number as well 
  8. Voila! This completes the process to add an authorized user to your card 

Things to consider before adding a user 

Before you take on the steps to add a new user to your American Express account, you need to take a few points into consideration. 

First of all, you should ask yourself a few questions- whether that user is having the physical card as well. If he does have it with him, the user would have complete access to your personal credit line. 

In addition to that, if you are adding an authorized user, it will cost you around $175 annually. This means that the process to add the user would add up to your expenses. Moreover, if you add a user, it will help him build his own credit score. 

So, if you agree to all of these terms, then only you should take additional steps to add them. 

To Sum Up: 

After AMEX login, one could easily manage his card as well as his card-related account. In this blog-post, I have talked about the details through which you can easily add an authorized user to it. You can repeat the same process to add a few more users but up to an extent. Also, make sure that you go through the previous section very carefully so that you can measure the risks attached.
