Convert a Dave bank statement to Excel
Convert a Dave statement PDF to Excel or CSV in your browser. StatementSift detects date, description, amount and balance columns, then checks row-by-row balance continuity before export. Dave statements use this layout: Date, Description, Amount (spend negative, deposits positive) and Balance — a single signed amount column in a clean ledger layout.
Drop your bank statement PDFs (multiple allowed) and StatementSift detects the date/description/amount/balance columns locally and reconciles row by row. Financial data is never uploaded or sent to any external AI. Text-based PDFs (from online banking) work best.
Columns
Date, Description, Amount (spend negative, deposits positive) and Balance — a single signed amount column in a clean ledger layout.
Best source
Export the monthly PDF statement from Statements / Documents in the Dave app. The text-based PDF converts cleanly — don't use an app screenshot.
Review target
Flagged rows, opening and closing balances.
Watch-outs for Dave statements
Dave usually relies on one signed amount column. Flagged rows often come from a minus sign or parenthesized amount being read the wrong way.
Wrapped merchant descriptions can push the next line out of alignment; check long descriptions when the balance proof fails.
Opening balance, closing balance and page-break continuation rows are not ordinary transactions, so review the first and last rows on multi-page statements.
