Built for a clean QuickBooks import

  • Standard OFX 1.02 structure with QuickBooks INTU.BID identifiers, the format QuickBooks expects from a bank
  • Unambiguous YYYYMMDD dates, no US/UK date confusion on import
  • Signed amounts: money out negative, money in positive, mapped from your statement automatically
  • Stable FITIDs so re-importing the same file never duplicates transactions
  • Works with QuickBooks Desktop (Web Connect) and QuickBooks Online
  • Scanned or photographed statements handled by in-browser OCR
  • Also exports Excel, CSV, OFX for Xero, QIF, and JSON from the same statement

Why not just import the CSV?

QuickBooks CSV import is fragile: columns must be mapped by hand every time, dates are easy to get wrong, and QuickBooks Desktop does not accept CSV bank imports at all without extra tooling. A QBO Web Connect file is the format QuickBooks was built to ingest from banks, so transactions arrive typed, dated, and deduplicated.

PivotBank generates that QBO file from the PDF statement itself, so it works even when the bank offers no export, the account is closed, or the statement is a scan a client emailed you.

PDF to QBO questions

Does the QBO file work with QuickBooks Desktop?

Yes. The file is a standard Web Connect (.qbo) file. In QuickBooks Desktop use File, then Utilities, then Import, then Web Connect Files. In QuickBooks Online upload it under Transactions, then Banking, then Upload from file.

Is my bank statement uploaded to your servers?

No. The PDF is parsed entirely in your browser, including OCR for scanned pages. The QBO file is generated locally on your device. Only statements you explicitly unlock and save to an account are stored, and only as extracted transaction data, never the PDF.

How much does it cost?

Previewing and Excel/CSV export are free (up to 10 pages per day). QBO export is part of the one-time statement unlock, around $2.99 per statement with no subscription. High volumes are covered by the Pro plan and batch converter.

Which banks are supported?

Over 1,000 banks worldwide, including Barclays, HSBC, Lloyds, NatWest, Monzo, Revolut, Chase, Bank of America, and Wells Fargo. If a statement does not parse, support usually ships a fix within a few working days.
