International charges show original currency and USD conversion on separate lines. We merge them into one clean row with both values.

Business + Corporate Support

Common American Express Statement Challenges We Solve

Membership Rewards entries in transaction list

Points earned, redeemed, and bonus adjustments appear as line items — inflates transaction count and breaks spreadsheet totals.

Supplemental cards missing from QuickBooks sync

Amex delegate access often syncs only the primary card — supplemental cardmember transactions vanish from QuickBooks. Our converter extracts all cards from the PDF.

Multi-currency with dual-line entries

Foreign transactions show the original currency amount on one line and USD conversion on the next — we merge both into a single clean row.

Statement credits scattered throughout

Platinum and Gold cards have Uber, airline, dining, and entertainment credits appearing as negative amounts mixed with purchases — our AI groups them separately.

Frequently Asked Questions — American Express Statements

QHow do I download my Amex statement as a PDF?

Log into americanexpress.com, navigate to "Statements & Activity," select the card account and statement period, then click download. PDF statements are available for 7+ years of history.

QDoes this work with all Amex card types?

Yes. Gold, Platinum, Green, Blue Cash Everyday, Blue Cash Preferred, Delta SkyMiles, Hilton Honors, Marriott Bonvoy, Business Gold, Business Platinum, Blue Business Cash, Corporate cards — all supported. Each card type's unique format is handled automatically.

QWhy is the Amex CSV export missing data?

Amex CSV downloads exclude spending categories, statement summaries, fees, and rewards data. They only cover the last 6 billing statements, and pending charges are excluded entirely. Our PDF converter extracts everything — including Membership Rewards entries which we separate from actual transactions.

QWhy are supplemental card transactions missing from QuickBooks?

Amex delegate access in QuickBooks often syncs only the primary card — supplemental cards stop downloading silently. This is a known, years-old issue with no fix from Amex. Convert the full PDF statement instead to capture every cardholder's transactions in one clean file.

QHow do I import Amex statements into QuickBooks?

Convert your Amex PDF to CSV here, then import via Banking > Upload Transactions in QuickBooks. Date, description, and amount columns are formatted for direct import — no manual cleanup needed.

QDoes this handle Amex Business and Corporate cards?

Absolutely. Business and Corporate card statements include additional fields like employee names, cost centers, and accounting codes. Our converter extracts all fields into properly labeled columns.

QWhat about international transactions on my Amex?

Foreign charges on Amex statements show the original currency and the USD equivalent on separate lines. Our converter merges these into a single row with both the foreign amount and USD conversion, so your spreadsheet totals are accurate.
