What file format does Quicken accept for bank statement import?
Quicken Desktop (Windows/Mac) accepts QBO and QFX (Web Connect / OFX format). Select QBO output in Bank Statement Converter. Go to File → Import → Bank or Brokerage File to import.
Does Quicken prevent duplicate transaction imports?
Yes. QBO files include transaction IDs (FITIDs) that Quicken uses to detect and skip duplicates. If you import the same file twice, Quicken will skip already-imported transactions automatically.

Quicken Simplifi is a web-only product that does not support QBO import. For Simplifi, use CSV export from Bank Statement Converter and manually import via Simplifi's transaction upload feature if available, or categorize transactions manually.
Is my Wells Fargo 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.
