How to find subscriptions on your American Express statement

Your American Expressstatement lists every recurring charge you're paying. Export it as a CSV, and you can find the subscriptions you forgot about in about a minute — without ever sharing your American Express login.

Step 1 — Download your American Express statement as a CSV

1. 1Sign in at americanexpress.com and open Statements & Activity.
2. 2Select Download Your Transactions.
3. 3Choose CSV or Excel, set the date range (or a recent statement), and download.

Tip. Amex lets you download by statement period or custom range — a custom 3-month range catches the most recurring charges. Aim for about 3 months of history — a charge needs to appear two or three times to be recognised as recurring, and a longer range also catches annual renewals.

Step 2 — Find the recurring charges

You can scan the CSV by hand — sort by description, and look for the same merchant billing the same amount on a regular cycle (here's the full manual method). Or let Sevrodo it: upload the file and it detects the recurring charges, flags price increases, catches free trials that just started billing, and totals up what you're paying each month and year.

Either way, no American Express login is involved. Sevro reads the CSV in your browser and never stores the file — there's no bank connection or aggregator in the middle.
