What FileInto looks for in your file

ColumnExamplesNotes
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>-5.75The 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>SB2026100301Kept 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.
