Hello, I have read several blogs on IK about setting up a OFX with Amex, and it sounds as simple as typing the account number and the current pw to the login to the credit card at the on-line banking setup screen. When I try that, it comes back that the PIN/PW is not recognized.

Is this correct?

I am on version 2017.8.

    just a user - I can't really speak to 2017.8, but...

    still for credit cards for Amex, you need your USERID and PW - then it will present to you a set of accounts - and you pick the one that matches the account you are trying to link to - and then it should all link up.

    If you have an Amex savings account - they do not support OFX for that type of account.

    Thank you for that! I had misunderstood and thought I needed to add my number first . . . this looks to be working!

    Thanks again!
