How to import the QIF file

Quicken (Windows)

  1. Go to File, then File Import, then QIF File.
  2. Select the .qif file from FileInto.
  3. Choose the Quicken account to import into, then Next.
  4. Review the imported transactions in the register.

Other apps

  1. Look for Import, then QIF in the File menu (Banktivity, Moneydance, MoneyWiz and others).
  2. Select the .qif file from FileInto.
  3. Pick the account to import into.
  4. Check the date format your app asks for: FileInto writes month first (10/03/2026).

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>SB2026100301QIF has no place for it, so it is left out (see the questions below).
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.
Quicken won’t import QIF into a bank account
Recent Quicken versions only accept QIF for some account types. Use QFX instead: switch "Save as" to QFX for Quicken.
Transactions are duplicated
QIF has no transaction ids, so apps can’t tell what you already imported. Import each date range once, or use OFX or QFX, which carry ids.
Dates are wrong
QIF dates are written month first. If your app expects day first, check its import date setting.

Questions

Why convert QFX to QIF?
Some apps, and older Quicken versions, import QIF but not QFX. FileInto writes each transaction from your QFX download as QIF: date, amount, payee, memo and check number.
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.
What doesn’t carry over?
QIF has no transaction ids, so importing an overlapping date range can add the same transactions twice. Everything else carries over. Convert only the dates you haven’t imported yet.
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.
