Why CSV?

CSV is the lowest common denominator. Almost every accounting tool, ERP, and analytics platform imports it. We produce a UTF-8 CSV with a standard header row, RFC 4180-compliant quoting, and ISO 8601 date formatting.

Standard header row: Date, Description, Debit, Credit, Balance, Reference
RFC 4180-compliant quoting — descriptions with commas, quotes, or newlines never break the parse
UTF-8 encoded — international characters and currency symbols preserved
ISO 8601 dates (YYYY-MM-DD) — no Excel reinterpretation as US/UK formats
Imports cleanly into QuickBooks Online, Xero, Wave, FreshBooks, Sage, and NetSuite

What gets extracted from your statement

Transaction date (normalised to YYYY-MM-DD)
Description, payee, and reference where available
Debit and credit amounts in separate, signed columns
Running balance, where the statement shows one
Statement period, opening balance, and closing balance
Account holder name and account number (header only)

Convert CSV for any bank

Our parser is bank-agnostic — it reads the layout of your statement directly rather than relying on a hand-written template per bank. That's how we support 1,000+ banks worldwide. Common ones below:

CSV conversion FAQ

What CSV dialect do you produce?

RFC 4180: comma-separated, double-quote-quoted fields, CRLF line endings, UTF-8 with no BOM. This is the dialect QuickBooks, Xero, Excel, and Python's csv module all expect.

Why doesn't QuickBooks recognise my CSV import?

QuickBooks CSV import requires Date, Description, and Amount columns at minimum. Our CSV includes them. If QuickBooks still rejects, switch to QBO export — it carries stable transaction IDs and imports without manual mapping.

Can I customize the column order?

Yes — paid plans let you map columns to the exact schema your downstream tool expects. The default schema works for 90%+ of accounting tools.
