What FileInto looks for in your file
| Column | Examples | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Created | 2026-10-01 14:21:07 | The charge date. |
| Description | Invoice 1042 | What the charge was for. Fee lines keep it in the memo. |
| Amount and Fee | 100.00 and 3.20 | Amount becomes the sale; Stripe lists fees as positive numbers, and FileInto turns them into money out. |
| Type | charge, refund, payout | Payouts come in as money moving to your bank. |
Problems and fixes
- Your finance app shows only the net amount
- Leave "Split fees into their own lines" on. Each Stripe sale then comes in at its full amount with a separate Stripe fee line, so income and fees are both right.
- Pending or failed payments are missing
- They are skipped on purpose. Only completed payments belong in your books; export again after Stripe finishes them.
- The same payments appear twice
- Each line gets a fixed id from its date, amount and description, so importing the same export again is skipped by your finance app. Overlapping date ranges from different exports can still duplicate; export non-overlapping ranges.
- Payouts look like expenses
- Payouts move money from Stripe to your bank. In your finance app, match or categorize them as a transfer to your bank account, not an expense.
- 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 not just use the Stripe deposits in my bank feed?
- One Stripe payout bundles many charges minus fees, so the bank feed shows neither your real sales nor your fees. This file has each charge and fee.
- What is an OFX file?
- OFX (Open Financial Exchange) is the standard file banks use to send transactions to finance apps. Xero, GnuCash, Moneydance, Banktivity and many others import it.
- Which account should I import into?
- Create a separate account in your finance app named Stripe. Sales and fees land there, and Stripe payouts become transfers to your real bank account.
- Is my Stripe 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.
- Can I get a QuickBooks file instead?
- Yes. Switch "Save as" to QBO, or use the Stripe to QuickBooks converter.
- 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.
