Excel · CSV · QBO · XeroAmerican Express (Amex) Statement to Excel Converter
Convert American Express statement PDFs into clean Excel spreadsheets. FlowParse reads the Amex layout — the New Charges section, Payments and Credits, fees and interest, and the account summary — and rebuilds every line as an editable, signed row with date, description and amount. Personal Amex cards (Gold, Platinum, Blue Cash) and American Express Business and Corporate Card statements are all supported.
Scanned or digital · multi-page · balance-validated · duplicates removed
Amex gives you a PDF, but expense reports, bookkeeping and tax prep want a spreadsheet. Instead of retyping every charge by hand, upload the statement, let the AI extract it in seconds, review the editable preview, and export to Excel, CSV or a QuickBooks-ready file. Charges and credits are signed correctly and the account summary is validated, so the data reconciles before you export.

What FlowParse extracts from an Amex statement
American Express statements are organised into New Charges (often grouped by card member), Payments and Credits, fees and interest, and an account summary with previous balance, payments, new charges and new balance. FlowParse reads each section and extracts date, description/merchant, card member where shown, the signed amount, and category where Amex provides it.
Charges and credits are normalised into one signed column so the spreadsheet totals correctly, and the account summary is used to confirm the statement reconciles.
| Field | Captured in the export |
|---|---|
| Date | Transaction / posting date, normalised |
| Description | Payee, merchant or transfer detail, verbatim |
| Amount | Single signed value (debits −, credits +) |
| Balance | Running balance per transaction |
| Reference / type | Check number, transaction type, reference |
Amex statement formats and card types
Amex statements differ between personal cards (Gold, Platinum, Blue Cash), Business cards, and Corporate cards, and multi-card accounts split charges by card member. FlowParse reads all of these without configuration, identifying the charge lines, payments and fees by meaning so every Amex statement produces the same clean column structure.

Manual work vs FlowParse
Re-typing a statement by hand is slow and error-prone. FlowParse is near-instant, accurate, and scales to any volume.
| What happens | By hand | FlowParse |
|---|---|---|
| Reading the data | Copy-paste line by line | AI extracts every transaction |
| Scanned statements | Re-typed manually | OCR reads them automatically |
| Debits & credits | You fix every sign | Pre-signed, normalised |
| Balance check | Manual reconciliation | Validated automatically |
| Time per statement | 20–40 minutes | Under 30 seconds |
| A full year | Hours per account | One Smart Merge upload |
Import straight into your accounting software
Need it in your books? FlowParse builds a real bank-feed file. The .QBO imports directly into QuickBooks with no CSV column mapping, each transaction carries a unique ID so re-imports never duplicate, and Quicken users get .QFX.
Validated, not just converted
One extraction powers every export: Excel for expense analysis, CSV for importing anywhere, a real .QBO/.QFX/.OFX file that auto-imports into QuickBooks or Quicken without mapping, or a Xero-ready CSV.
That suits cardholders building expense reports, bookkeepers coding card spend, and finance teams consolidating corporate-card activity.
