Apple Card and Quicken

I have used financial management software since the 1980s, first PFS and now Quicken so I am fully aware of the issue at hand. However, I am capable of adapting unlike others apparently. I have established a manual Apple Card account in Quicken and it gets the job done. Would I like the download feature? Yes, but I’m not going berserk over it like some are doing here, declaring the card a useless failure, predicting Apple’s demise because of the lack of this ability, etc. And I will repeat my assertion that the vast majority of people do not use financial software and therefore could not care less about it. It’s a squeaky minority going nuts over this.

Hello everyone, I posted on this channel out of anger that Apple would have put forth a modern credit card without an interface to conventional financial software. I have already canceled my account, as this card represents just another credit card. There is nothing special about it except that it is metal and it has an Apple logo on it. It is a credit card. It does not require special processing nor does it require If an academic essay on how to download the transactions. It is a credit card that has failed in the simplest way; a modern interface to conventional software. Close your account and forget about it.

Since I can't download transactions into Quicken, I will limit my use to what I buy from Apple (to get the 6% cash back) as those few transactions can be manually added and other cards pay back more for other purchases and will download into Quicken.

> Just tried to import my Applecard transactions to Quicken using the OFX file format. It doe not work and Quicken can't read the OFX file.

Just saw that the OFX option is available. Try it. It was obviously a rush job because it has quite a few of very basic errors. A basic import test to one of the personal finance software would have failed immediately.

Apple/GS, I have some hand-on experience on OFX generation and will be happy to provide input and do some testing so we can get this right (cause I want to use it). I can be reached at ac2ofx at gmail dot com.

Stating how one would like a product to work is not ranting and raging. No one suggested the card is useless or that someone should close their account. So basically, you would be ok if it worked the way it should or if it continues working the way it does. Why are you even in this conversation then? If people didn't give feedback we woud still be using Windows 95.

Flat out wrong. Read this thread and others from the beginning and you'll see what I said is true.

And continuing this thread does nothing as Apple is not here. Apple does not monitor these forums. What Apple DOES monitor are the Feedback comments. So if you want to get Apple's attention submit Feedback. Apple looks at every Feedback submission.

Apple Card data cannot be exported.

Go here https://www.apple.com/feedback/ and scroll down to Apple Pay and submit feedback.

The link is on page 12 of this discussion thread.

For all you quicken and mint aficionados, See: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2019/11/ncr-barred-mint-quickbooks-from-banking-platform-during-account-takeover-storm/

And at the Apple Pay feedback page, under “Product Category” select Apple Card.

Thanks so much - this works great. (Using ac2ofx on downloaded AppleCard PDF statements)

They are open for beta testing. You can sign up if you want to preview the app. More info at https://app-projectq.github.io/projectq-page/

New Apple Card website activated yesterday. https://card.apple.com You can schedule and make payments, download statements, but you can't see current transactions.

Unfortunately, Apple is not here except to monitor the posts to ensure that they're in compliance with the rules.

You need to contact Apple directly. In my case, I figured that it's not worth my trouble. If they don't fix this issue (and many others) within two months, I'll cancel the card. No skin off my back.
