OFX to CSV

About OFX to CSV Converter

Our free OFX to CSV converter transforms Open Financial Exchange files into clean, structured CSV data instantly in your browser. OFX (also known as QFX for Quicken or OFC for older Microsoft Money formats) is the standard format used by thousands of banks and financial institutions in the United States and worldwide for delivering electronic transaction data. Converting OFX to CSV makes the data immediately usable in spreadsheets, accounting tools, and custom analysis workflows.

This converter handles both SGML-based OFX (without closing tags, used by most US banks) and XML-based OFX formats seamlessly. It extracts transaction types, dates, amounts, payee names, memos, check numbers, reference numbers, and account details from each STMTTRN element. The tool also includes intelligent fallback field resolution -- if a standard tag like DTPOSTED is missing, it automatically searches for alternatives like DTUSER or DTAVAIL.

All processing runs entirely on your device. Your banking data is never uploaded to any server, guaranteeing complete privacy and security. Whether you are importing bank downloads into accounting software, analyzing spending patterns, or migrating financial data between platforms, this tool delivers accurate results in seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tips & Best Practices

• Download full statements: When exporting from your bank, select the widest date range available to get complete transaction history.
• Check for truncation: Ensure your OFX file ends with closing tags (like </OFX>). Truncated files may cause parsing errors.
• Review warnings carefully: The converter reports any missing or substituted fields. Pay attention to these warnings to ensure data accuracy.
• Try the sample data: Load the built-in sample to understand the output CSV format before converting your own bank files.
• Handle multiple accounts: The tool extracts account identifiers for each transaction, making it easy to filter by account in your spreadsheet.
• Keep your original files: Always retain the original OFX files as the authoritative source, since CSV conversion flattens some structured data.
