Frequently Asked Questions

How do I download my Westpac bank statement?
Log in to Westpac Online Banking at westpac.com.au and select your account → Click 'Statements' in the account navigation → Choose the statement year and then the specific month → Click 'Download PDF' next to the statement you need → Save the PDF to your downloads folder or desktop
Should I import as CSV or Excel into Google Sheets?
Either works. CSV is slightly simpler — File → Import → Upload. If you download Excel (.xlsx) from Bank Statement Converter, you can also open it in Google Sheets via File → Import → Upload and select the .xlsx file.
Does Google Sheets automatically detect dates in CSV imports?
Usually yes. If dates import as plain text, select the date column, click Format → Number → Date to apply proper date formatting. Then you can use MONTH() and YEAR() formulas for analysis.
Can I use Google Sheets formulas on the imported data?
Yes. All Google Sheets functions (SUMIF, QUERY, VLOOKUP, FILTER) work immediately on the imported transaction data. QUERY is especially powerful for date-range filtering.
Is my Westpac 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.
