How it reads your statement
Statements downloaded from online banking contain real text, not just a picture. The converter reads that text right here in your browser, finds each line that starts with a date and ends with an amount, and joins descriptions that wrap onto a second line.
It works out whether money went in or out from the statement itself: separate withdrawal and deposit columns, section headings like Deposits and Withdrawals, or the running balance. Statements that only show the month and day get the year from the statement period, including statements that run from December into January.
Questions
Is this PDF to QBO converter free?
Yes. Convert PDF statements to QBO with no sign-up.
Which banks does it work with?
Most banks and card companies whose statements you can download as a PDF from online banking, including big banks, credit unions and online banks.
Can I convert credit card statements?
Yes. Credit card statements are detected automatically, and charges are signed so they import correctly into a QuickBooks credit card account.
Is my bank statement uploaded anywhere?
No. The PDF is read inside your own browser and never sent to a server. That includes the password if your PDF has one.
Does it work with scanned statements?
Not yet. Scanned statements are pictures with no text inside. Download the statement from your online banking instead, which gives a PDF with real text.
What if a transaction is missing or wrong?
Compare the totals with your statement. If something's off, try changing the date format setting, or tick Reverse signs if money in and out are swapped. Banks lay statements out in many ways, so a few layouts may not read perfectly yet.
