FreshBooks accepts CSV expense imports. Download your bank statement PDF, convert to CSV with Bank Statement Converter, filter for expense rows (debits only), and import via Expenses → Import Expenses.
Should I import income transactions into FreshBooks?
Not typically. FreshBooks is invoice-centric — income should come from paid invoices. Import only expense (debit) transactions from your bank statement CSV for accurate P&L reporting.
How do I connect my bank directly to FreshBooks?
FreshBooks supports direct bank connections via Plaid for US banks. However, if your bank isn't supported or you need historical data, CSV import via Bank Statement Converter is the best alternative.
Is my BNP Paribas data safe to upload?
Yes. Bank Statement Converter processes files in-memory and deletes them immediately after conversion. No data is stored, logged, or used for model training. No account is required.
