Why Convert CSV to OFX?

The Import Problem

Many financial software applications like Quicken, GnuCash, and Moneydance accept OFX (Open Financial Exchange) files for importing bank transactions. However, banks often provide CSV exports that these tools cannot directly import. This tool bridges the gap by converting your CSV or Excel bank statements into properly formatted OFX files.

What This Tool Does

Our converter handles the full transformation: - Detects date, amount, and description columns automatically - Generates unique transaction IDs (FITIDs) for deduplication - Supports bank accounts and credit card accounts - Creates valid OFX 2.x format accepted by all major financial software

No payment or signup required. You can upload your file, see a free preview of the conversion results, and verify everything looks correct before paying anything. If it doesn't work for your files, you haven't wasted any money. We only charge when you're satisfied and ready to download the final converted file.
