How to download your American Express statements

PDF TUNEDPDF (recommended).

Amex billing statements are PDFs organised by closing date. Pare's Amex parser is tuned against real statements and handles the year-rollover case (December charges on a January-closing statement).

Steps

  1. 01Sign in at americanexpress.ca → Statements & Activity.
  2. 02Billing statements → View PDF → download.
  3. 03Drop the PDF into Pare — Amex statements are fully supported.
Go to American Express login ↗

Worth knowing

Amex statements are dated by the closing date, not the calendar month, so a statement closing January 5 mostly contains December spending. Pare handles that automatically.

What Pare does with it

Drop the file into Pare and it parses the transactions locally, categorises them, and builds spending trends, budgets and a cash-flow forecast. Uploaded PDFs are deleted the moment they're parsed, and Pare never asks for your bank login. You can also self-host it so the data never leaves your machine.
