Connect Amex to Fireball.
Fireball works with Amex through Akahu, New Zealand's open banking platform. Your Amex balances and transactions sync into one budget, net worth and FIRE plan. The link is read only, so Fireball can never move money.
How to connect Amex
1. Open Accounts
In the Fireball app, go to Accounts and choose to connect a bank or platform.
2. Pick Amex
Akahu opens a secure screen where you sign in to Amex and choose which accounts to share.
3. Watch it fill in
Up to 12 months of transactions arrive when you first connect. New ones keep syncing automatically.
What Amex brings to Fireball
The accounts you see depend on what Amex shares through open banking.
Budget
Amex spending is categorised and counted against your monthly budget.
Net worth
Amex balances sit next to KiwiSaver, investments and property.
FIRE plan
Real savings and spending feed your financial independence date.
