The public converter is free to try; paid plans and credit packs apply only as your volume grows.
Which South African banks does the PDF to CSV converter support?+

For bank-specific instructions and optimised extraction, use the dedicated page for your bank under the bank statement to CSV converter.
Can I convert a scanned PDF bank statement to CSV?+
Yes. The tool reads both digital (text-based) PDFs and scanned or image-only statements using AI extraction, so older or photographed statements can still be converted to CSV. Always review the extracted rows against the source PDF before relying on the data.
What format is the exported CSV?+
The export is a standard comma-separated CSV with columns for transaction date, description, debit, credit, and balance — ready to open in Excel or Google Sheets. Most bookkeeping software can import it once you match the columns to its import template.
Is the PDF to CSV converter free?+
You can try the converter for free to preview extracted rows. For ongoing or higher-volume conversion, Accounter offers monthly page allowances and credit packs — see the bank statement pricing for current allowances.
