Open the converterWhat a American Express statement looks like
Amex statements are card statements: a date, a detailed merchant description, and an amount, grouped into new charges and payments/credits. There is no running balance.
The layout matters because ConvertFin reads the selectable text inside your PDF and rebuilds each transaction as a spreadsheet row. Wherever American Express places the dates, descriptions, amounts and any running balance, the converter maps them into a small set of clean columns you can sort, filter and total.
Columns you get in the export
Every American Express statement is exported to the same tidy structure, in both Excel and CSV:
| Column | What it holds |
|---|---|
| Date | The transaction date from your American Express statement |
| Description | The merchant or payee text, kept on a single row |
| Amount | The debit or credit as a single signed value |
| Balance | The running balance where American Express prints one, left blank for card statements that carry no balance |
You get the same columns whether you convert the bank statement to Excel or convert it to CSV, so the file is ready to open in Excel, Google Sheets, or import straight into accounting tools.
Tip. Since Amex statements have no balance column, the balance field in your export will be empty. The date, description and amount columns are complete.

Is it safe to convert a American Express statement online?
With ConvertFin there is no online step for your data. Your American Express statement is processed entirely in your browser, so the PDF is never sent to a server, never stored, and never seen by us. That is the whole point of the client-side design: a bank statement carries your account number and full transaction history, so the safest converter is one that never receives the file in the first place. There is more detail on the security page.
Runs in your browser with pdf.js, nothing is uploaded or stored, no signup, and clean Date / Description / Amount / Balance columns out to Excel and CSV.
American Express conversion FAQ
Do I need to upload my American Express statement anywhere?
No. The conversion runs locally in your browser with pdf.js, so your American Express PDF never leaves your device and is not stored on any server.
What formats can I export a American Express statement to?
Both Excel (.xlsx) and CSV. The columns — Date, Description, Amount and Balance — are identical in either format, so you can open the file in Excel or Google Sheets or import it into your accounting software.
Is there anything specific to watch for with a American Express statement?
Since Amex statements have no balance column, the balance field in your export will be empty. The date, description and amount columns are complete.
Does it work with a scanned American Express statement?
Only if the PDF has selectable text. Scanned or photographed image-only statements have no text layer to read, so those are not supported. Download the original PDF from American Express online banking instead of scanning a paper copy.
