What is CSV format and when should I use it?

Comma-separated values format, universally compatible with all spreadsheet and accounting software.

Our converter extracts transaction data from your PDF bank statement and outputs a properly formatted .csv file that you can open in any compatible software. All transaction fields — dates, descriptions, amounts, and balances — are preserved in the correct structure.

Format	Best for	Compatible software
.xlsx (Excel)	Spreadsheet analysis, bookkeeping	Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice
.csv (CSV) (current)	Universal import, any software	All spreadsheet & accounting apps
.qbo (QBO)	QuickBooks import	QuickBooks Online & Desktop
.ofx (OFX)	Multi-software compatibility	QuickBooks, Quicken, MS Money
.qif (QIF)	Personal finance tools	Quicken, GnuCash, Moneydance

The current format (CSV) is highlighted. All formats are available from a single upload — no need to re-upload your statement.

How to import a CSV file into your accounting software

Most accounting software accepts CSV bank statement imports, but each has quirks. For QuickBooks Online, use the Banking tab → Upload transactions and map columns to Date, Description, and Amount. For Xero, upload via Bank Accounts → Manage Account → Import a Statement — Xero requires signed amounts (deposits positive, withdrawals negative) rather than separate debit/credit columns. Excel users can open the CSV directly, though dates may need reformatting with TEXT() if they display as numbers. Two common failure modes to watch for: date format (DD/MM/YYYY vs MM/DD/YYYY causes wrong-month imports) and running-balance columns (most software ignores them; some reject them). Our CSV output uses ISO dates by default and omits the running balance to avoid these issues.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I convert any bank's PDF statement to CSV?

Yes. Our AI-powered converter works with PDF statements from any bank worldwide — over 100 banks are listed on our supported banks page, but the AI reads any bank statement PDF regardless of whether the bank is specifically listed. It automatically detects the statement layout and extracts all transactions accurately.

Is the converted CSV file accurate?

Our AI achieves 99%+ accuracy for digital PDF statements downloaded from online banking. We extract all transaction data including dates, descriptions, debit and credit amounts, and running balances. Scanned paper statements also work well at 300 DPI or higher resolution via built-in OCR.

How many statements can I convert at once?

You can upload multiple PDF files simultaneously. Our batch processing handles them all and provides individual .csv files for each statement. You can mix statements from different banks and different months in the same batch — each is processed independently.

Is my bank statement data secure during conversion?

All uploads are encrypted with 256-bit encryption both in transit and at rest. Files are processed securely and retained only for as long as needed — you can delete them at any time from your dashboard. We never share or access your financial data beyond what is needed for the conversion.

Can I convert scanned paper statements to CSV?

Yes. Our converter includes built-in OCR (Optical Character Recognition) that reads scanned paper statements. For best results, scan at 300 DPI or higher. Digital PDFs from online banking give the highest accuracy since the text is already machine-readable.
