Why convert QIF to CSV?

QIF is a legacy format from the 1980s — readable by Quicken but not by Excel or modern spreadsheet tools. Opening a QIF file in Excel shows raw text tags instead of transaction data. Converting to CSV gives you a clean, structured spreadsheet you can immediately work with.

Common reasons to convert QIF to CSV: migrating from Quicken to a new accounting tool that accepts CSV, sharing transaction data with a bookkeeper or accountant, or analyzing spending without a dedicated finance app.

If you need to import QIF data into QuickBooks Online instead, use the QIF to QBO converter.

Frequently asked questions

What is a QIF file?

QIF (Quicken Interchange Format) is a file format developed by Intuit in the 1980s for exporting financial transactions from Quicken. Many older banks and financial applications still export in QIF format. It stores transactions as plain text with single-letter field codes.

What columns does the CSV output include?

The exported CSV includes Date, Amount, Payee (the transaction description), and Memo. All four fields from the QIF format are preserved.

My QIF file has investment transactions — will those convert?

This converter is optimized for bank and checking account transactions (Type:Bank, Type:CCard). Investment QIF records use different field codes and may not convert correctly.

What date format does the output use?

Dates are output in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD) for compatibility with Excel, Google Sheets, and most accounting tools.

Can I convert QIF to Excel directly?

After downloading the CSV, open it in Excel with Data > From Text/CSV, or drag it straight into Google Sheets. The four columns — Date, Amount, Payee, Memo — will appear ready to use.

Is my data safe?

Your data never leaves your browser. The conversion runs entirely in JavaScript on your device — nothing is uploaded to any server.
