Importing your bank statement to an instant receipt is way too simple. Here we will learn how to import bank statements from PDF files into Instant Receipts. Our system automatically extracts transaction data from your bank statements. For importing the bank statement, you need a pdf file of your bank statement. If you are on a paid plan, you can also connect your bank from the Connected Accounts tab instead of uploading PDFs. If the pdf has multiple pages, make sure there is a separate statement or a single section of each statement on one page.

Outcome

  • Upload PDF files and extract transactions automatically
  • Capture all transaction details without manual entry.
  • No more manual data entry from bank statements.
