Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to put bank data in Google Sheets?

Google Sheets is encrypted and access-controlled. However, only share sheets with people you trust. Our converter is the privacy-critical step, and it processes everything locally before you choose where to put the CSV.

Can I import directly without downloading first?

You need to download the CSV from our converter first, then upload it to Google Sheets. This two-step process is by design since our converter does not connect to Google or any cloud service.

Can I automate monthly imports into Google Sheets?

Our converter is manual and privacy-first by design. You convert each statement individually. For automation, you would need to download your statement PDF from your bank each month and convert it.
