American Express has agreed to pay nearly $109 million in fines related to deceptive marketing and false account allegations, the Justice Department announced Thursday.

Under a nonprosecution agreement, the company is to pay a $77.6 million fine and forfeit $60.7 million for the revenue that could have been owed from its Payroll Rewards and Premium Wire programs.

The Wall Street Journal had reported on a series of deceptive and strong-arm tactics the card company used to increase small business sign-ups.
