What it is, in one paragraph

QBOKit turns a bank statement into a file QuickBooks will accept. It takes a CSV, TSV, Excel .xlsx, PDF, or an existing .OFX/.QFX/.QBO, and writes .QBO (QuickBooks Web Connect), .OFX, .QIF, or a cleaned CSV. The conversion runs entirely in the browser: the statement is never uploaded, to this server or anywhere else. There is no account and no file limit.

Status — please do not overstate this

• First published 24 October 2026.
• I do not claim any usage. It is days old, it has had effectively no visitors yet, and nobody has paid anything. If a number would be useful to you, ask and I will tell you exactly what the logs say.
• Built and run by one person. There is no company, no funding and no PR behind it.

The two parts that are unusual

1. A searchable copy of Intuit's institution directory. A .QBO file carries FID and INTU.BID codes identifying the bank; wrong codes mean QuickBooks refuses the import with "cannot verify the financial institution". Intuit publishes the list only as a raw fidir.txt. /bank-codes is the same data, searchable: 8,448 institutions, of which 847 list more than one id. Directory fetched 26 October 2026.
2. A correction about the Desktop bank-feed sunset. When a QuickBooks Desktop version's online services end, the bank feed is gone permanently. Intuit's notice also says uploading transactions is discontinued, which reads as though importing a file by hand dies too. It does not — File → Utilities → Import → Web Connect Files still works, and that is what keeps a client on a sunset version going. The guide.

Price

The converter is free, with no account and no file limit, and is intended to stay that way. Batch conversion, duplicate-safe transaction ids and the forced re-import switch are all part of the free tool.

QBOKit Pro is planned at 49 EUR per year per person for the two things a single browser cannot do: column mappings that sync between machines and colleagues, and remembered institution settings per client. It is not built. There is a waitlist and nothing to pay.

What it cannot do

• PDF statements vary enormously. Rows are extracted in the browser and the preview shows what was found, including how many rows were skipped — that count is there to be checked, not ignored.
• A QIF file carries no account number, so the right account has to be picked at import time.
• Nothing is processed on a server, which is the point, but it also means there is no cross-device history and no recovery if a browser is cleared.
• The institution directory is Intuit's and changes without notice. If a code here is stale, the one that already works is the one to trust.
• Not affiliated with Intuit, QuickBooks or Xero.
