--- Comment #3 from Dawid Wróbel <me at dawidwrobel.com> ---
I have the following working fine:
- Chase Bank (Credit Cards & Banking)
- AMEX (Credit Cards)

IIRC, for Chase I had to enable "authorization mode" in my online
profile, which gives you a few minutes to initiate the connection. For
AMEX I think it was straightforward. In any case, I doubt I used any
information outside of what www.ofxhome.com users provided on its
forum.

For Discover cards, they stopped supporting OFX a while ago and now
use Quicken's custom thing (Web Connect Express). Other commercial
software has the same issue:
