Bank of America customers looking for a premium gift for any occasion throughout the year will soon be able to walk into any participating Bank of America retail branch and purchase $25, $50 and $100 American Express gift cards which will be available by December 10, 2007, in time for the year-end holiday gift-giving season.

Alpesh Chokshi, president of American Express travelers’ checks and prepaid services, said: Bank of America is a powerhouse addition to our growing list of banking and retail partners. We want to make our gift cards available where consumers expect to find them for sale, and many of our customers prefer to buy gift cards at their local bank branch.
