The Apple Card is a fantastic financial product, but when it comes time to do your taxes or budget in Excel, exporting the data can be incredibly frustrating.

Apple provides two main ways to get your data: directly via the Wallet app (CSV export), or by downloading the monthly PDF statements. Here is the definitive guide on how to handle both.

Method 1: Direct CSV Export (If you have an iPhone/iPad)

If you have your Apple device handy, this is the easiest method. Apple allows you to export your monthly transactions directly to a spreadsheet format.

  1. Open the Wallet app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap on your Apple Card.
  3. Tap the Card Balance module.
  4. Scroll down and select a specific Monthly Statement.
  5. Tap Export Transactions at the bottom.
  6. Choose CSV or OFX (CSV is best for Excel).

You can then AirDrop or email the CSV file to your computer and open it directly in Excel.

Method 2: Converting the PDF Statement (If you only have the PDF)

Often, accountants or bookkeepers are only given the downloaded PDF statements. This presents a unique challenge:Apple Card PDFs use Apple Color Emoji characters next to merchant categories.

If you try to use generic OCR software to convert the Apple PDF to Excel, the software trips over the emojis, scrambling the text and corrupting the layout.

The Solution: AI PDF Parsing

To convert an Apple Card PDF to Excel without the emoji-induced errors, you need a smart parser.

  1. Go to MyPDFtoExcel.
  2. Upload your Apple Card PDF statement.
  3. Our AI automatically strips out the incompatible emojis and extracts the pure transaction table (Date, Merchant, Category, Amount).
  4. Download your perfectly formatted `.xlsx` file.
Tip: If you are an accountant dealing with clients' Apple Card statements, ask them for the raw CSV export first. If they can only provide the PDF, MyPDFtoExcel is your best fallback.
