Convert a Tangerine bank statement to Excel
Convert a Tangerine 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. Tangerine statements use this layout: Tangerine statements list each line as Date, Transaction description, a single signed Amount column (credits positive, debits negative), and a running Balance on the right. Chequing and Savings statements share the same clean layout. Text-based PDFs downloaded from Tangerine 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.
How we read a Tangerine statement
- Columns：Tangerine statements list each line as Date, Transaction description, a single signed Amount column (credits positive, debits negative), and a running Balance on the right. Chequing and Savings statements share the same clean layout.
- Date format：MMM DD, YYYY
- Best source：Sign in to Tangerine online banking or the app, open the account's Documents / Statements section, and download the original monthly PDF statement — avoid screenshots or photos, since scanned images give unreliable OCR.
Watch-outs for Tangerine statements
- Tangerine 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.
