AMEX MCC Lookup Tool ?
Hi All

I have seen the posting here for the Visa lookup tool which is great and confirms that Target & Walmart local to me are coded 5411 (Grocery Store) but I understand AMEX may code differently. Anyone ever seen a similar tool or cheat sheet for AMEX MCC (merchant) coding ?

Thanks

WC

Not sure about a master list but AMEX online statements show merchant codes. Just click a specific charge for detail

Both my Target and WM show up as Category: Merchandise & Supplies - Wholesale Stores.

As a data point, Visa classifies them as Grocery Stores.

Maybe someone should start a Google Doc and everyone can post merchant names and categories from their statements.

Another data point from Citi hhonor card , the target store by my loc is coded as supermarket/grocery store, amex hhonor surpass from same store is Merchandise & Supplies - Wholesale Stores. This might be informative for those seeking the 6X hhonor pts.
