Convert a Flagstar Bank bank statement to Excel
Convert a Flagstar Bank statement PDF to Excel or CSV right in your browser — date, description, amount and balance are detected automatically, with a row-by-row balance check, and your statement is never uploaded. Flagstar Bank statements use this layout: Flagstar checking statements list activity by date — Date, Description (merchant/ACH/transfer), a single Amount column (withdrawals negative, deposits positive), and a running Balance on the right — with checks, debit-card purchases, and electronic payments typically grouped into sections, plus fee and interest subtotals at the end. Text-based PDFs downloaded from Flagstar Bank online banking convert most accurately.
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.

Watch-outs for Flagstar Bank statements
- Flagstar Bank uses a single amount column where money out is negative and money in is positive. Watch for a transaction whose minus sign sits ambiguously — the balance check is what catches a flipped sign here.
- Multi-line descriptions (a long merchant name wrapped onto two lines) are the most common cause of a shifted row — if a row doesn't reconcile, that's the first thing to check.
- Transactions that carry over a page break, and the opening/closing balance lines, are handled separately from regular rows; verify the first and last rows of each page after a multi-page statement.
