How People Use This

My Etsy monthly statement had 12 rows where the Net amount didn't equal Amount minus Fees & Taxes — off by pennies on each, but it added up to a $43 discrepancy that made my bank reconciliation fail in Xero. I spent an entire evening hunting for it. The validator checks every single Net calculation and flags the exact rows with rounding mismatches.

One client downloaded their monthly statement and opened it in Excel, which silently changed dates from 'Jan 15, 2026' to '1/15/26.' When we imported to Xero, half the transactions landed in the wrong month because Excel also reinterpreted two-digit years. The date validation catches format corruption before it reaches your accounting software.

Grace T.
Etsy Shop Accountant · 15 Etsy seller clients

I had a statement where three transactions showed a type of 'Adj' instead of 'Adjustment' — Etsy had truncated the value. My accounting rules couldn't categorize them, so they sat in an uncategorized bucket for two months until my accountant flagged them during tax prep. The type validation catches any transaction type that doesn't match the expected list immediately.

Yolanda R.
Handmade Jewelry Seller · $8,500 monthly revenue

My EU shop statement had amount values with commas as decimal separators (12,50 instead of 12.50) because of my regional export settings. The import treated them as thousands separators, turning a $12.50 fee into $1,250. The validator flags non-numeric values in amount columns so you catch locale formatting issues before they blow up your totals.

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.
