Google may have stretched the truth a bit, when it suggested Aug. 1 that it had inked a deal with American Express. The company says that while it’s in talks with Google and interested in Wallet, nothing is yet official. Google’s relationship with American Express is a bit more nuanced than the search company suggested in an Aug. 1 blog post. While Google shared that its Wallet app now “supports all credit and debit cards from Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover,” American Express says it’s never actually signed on the dotted line. All Things D first reported that Google hadn’t actually received additional approval from American Express for the next evolution of its mobile payment app.
