mycardstatement Doesn't Categorize Your Spending — But This Tool Does
Tired of seeing "AMAZON.COM" and wondering if it was business supplies or personal shopping? Get automatic, intelligent spending categorization that mycardstatement simply doesn't provide.
The mycardstatement Categorization Gap
If you're using mycardstatement, you've probably noticed something frustrating: all your transactions appear as raw merchant names with zero categorization. "STARBUCKS #2847", "AMAZON.COM", "SHELL OIL" — but no insight into whether these were business meals, office supplies, or travel expenses.
This isn't just inconvenient — it's actively holding back your financial analysis and budgeting efforts.
mycardstatement excels at providing reliable access to your credit card transactions and statements. But when it comes to understanding what you're actually spending money on, it leaves you completely in the dark. Every transaction is just a merchant name and amount — no categories, no business/personal flags, no spending insights.
This creates a massive gap between having your transaction data and actually understanding your spending patterns. You're forced to manually review every single transaction, guess at categories, and spend hours doing work that should be automated.
Fortunately, there's a solution that transforms your mycardstatement data into intelligently categorized, actionable financial insights — and it takes just minutes, not hours.
