What FileInto looks for in your file
| Column | Examples | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Transactions | <STMTTRN> ... </STMTTRN> | Every transaction in the file. Older SGML files (OFX 1) and newer XML files (OFX 2) both work. |
| Date and amount | <DTPOSTED>20261003, <TRNAMT>-5.75 | The posted date and the signed amount, exactly as your bank wrote them. No date or sign settings to check. |
| Payee and memo | <NAME>, <MEMO> | Kept in full. |
| Transaction id | <FITID>SB2026100301 | Kept as your bank wrote it, so your finance app can still spot transactions it already has. |
| Account | <ACCTID>, <ACCTTYPE>, <CCACCTFROM> | Sets the account type (checking, savings or credit card) and the last 4 digits for you. |
Problems and fixes
- FileInto says it couldn’t read the file
- Open the file in a text editor. A real bank download starts with OFXHEADER or <OFX>. If it starts with something else (a web page, an error), download it from your bank again.
- The app says the file is invalid
- Some apps want QFX or QIF instead of OFX. Switch "Save as" to the format your app lists and download again.
- Transactions land in the wrong account
- OFX files carry an account number. Enter the last digits of your real account number in Settings so your app links the file to the right account.
Questions
- Why convert QFX to OFX?
- Apps such as Xero, GnuCash and Moneydance read standard OFX. A .qfx file is OFX with Quicken’s bank details added; FileInto rewrites it as plain OFX with every transaction and the bank’s transaction ids.
- Is my QFX file uploaded?
- No. FileInto converts it inside your browser tab. Your file never reaches our servers, and nothing about it does either: not its name, its size or how many rows it has.
- Does it work for credit cards?
- Yes. A credit card download is recognised as a credit card account, so charges come in as money owed.
- Do I need to set columns or dates?
- No. A bank download already says which value is the date, the payee and the amount, so there is nothing to map. Check the account type and download.
- Can I get a CSV instead?
- Yes. Switch "Save as" to CSV for Excel and Google Sheets.
- What are the limits?
- Files up to 25 MB. Every file gets a full preview free. Downloads up to 25 transactions are free, no account needed; a Day Pass ($9 for 24 hours) or Unlimited ($7 a month) has no row limit. It works in current versions of Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox, on computers and phones.
