Import Bank Statements Instead of Typing Them In
Upload a CSV or PDF export from your bank. Every row comes back on the wallet you picked, with a category and a budget already chosen, ready for your review.
Import bank statements as CSV or PDF
Your bank already exports your history as a CSV or PDF statement, and SavingStat can import bank statements in either format: pick the wallet the statement belongs to, upload the file, and progress updates live while a large file is processing.
Every row arrives categorized
Each row becomes a draft transaction with a category, a budget, and where it fits an income source already suggested. Suggestions are exactly that: you change anything that lands wrong before it is saved.
Duplicates are flagged before they land
Anything that matches something you already recorded is flagged during review. Importing the same statement twice, or two statements with overlapping dates, does not create second copies unless you choose to keep them.
Review before anything is published
Imported rows wait as drafts. You skim them, fix the odd category, resolve anything flagged as a duplicate, and publish. Nothing joins your records without passing your review.

Tracking expenses from a bank statement
Published rows feed your statistics: spending by category and by budget, monthly totals for income and spending, and a daily chart for each. The expense tracker app page shows where that picture leads.
Common questions
Can I import a CSV bank statement?
Yes. Upload a CSV export from your bank to SavingStat and every row comes back on the wallet you picked, with a category and a budget already chosen.
Can I import a PDF bank statement?
Yes. PDF statements are read the same way CSVs are, row by row into draft transactions.
What happens if I import the same statement twice?
Anything matching something you already recorded is flagged before it lands. You decide what to keep during review.
Can I review imported transactions before they are added?
Yes. Every imported row waits as a draft until you publish it.
How are transactions categorized?
Categories are your own labels, not a fixed list. Each import suggests one for every row, and you change anything that lands wrong.
Import your first statement
One CSV or PDF from your bank, and the month comes back sorted into categories.
