What CSV format does Xero require for bank import?
Xero expects a CSV with at minimum: Date, Description (or Payee), and Amount. Credits are positive values; debits are negative. Bank Statement Converter outputs a Debit and Credit column — combine into a single Amount column in Excel before importing to Xero.
Can I import OFX into Xero?
Yes. Xero also accepts OFX format. Select OFX/QBO output in Bank Statement Converter if you prefer OFX over CSV — Xero handles both equally well.
Does Xero automatically categorize imported transactions?
Xero applies Bank Rules to auto-categorize recurring transactions (e.g., always coding 'Stripe' as Sales). New transactions require manual categorization in the reconciliation screen.
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.
