Convert Tide statements to Excel, CSV, QBO & OFX
Drop a Tide PDF statement below. It is converted on your computer, reconciled against the printed balances, and exported in the format your accounting software imports.
About Tide statement layouts
Typical layout: Date · Description · Amount · Balance. A single signed amount column (debits shown with a minus sign or in a separate section) plus a running balance. Rowledger derives the sign from the balance movement, so it is correct even when the minus sign is missing.
- Date, Description, Amount and Balance.
- Dates on Tide statements are read as day/month (DD/MM); Rowledger confirms the order from the dates themselves and defaults the export to the matching format.
- Currency: GBP. Amount columns are exported as plain numbers; the currency is recorded in the Summary sheet and OFX header.
Common products: Tide Business Account.

Questions about Tide statements
Is my Tide statement uploaded?
No. Tide statements are converted by code running in your browser. Nothing is sent to Rowledger or any third party, and the conversion works with the internet disconnected.
What format should I export for QuickBooks or Xero?
For QuickBooks Online use the 3-column CSV preset or QBO; for QuickBooks Desktop use QBO; for Xero use OFX or the Xero CSV preset; for Wave use OFX. All are produced from the same conversion.
Does it handle Tide credit card statements too?
Yes. Card statements are detected from the summary block and use the card sign convention (charges out, payments in), verified against previous and new balance.
What if my Tide statement is a scan?
Drop it anyway. Rowledger runs OCR in your browser, then applies the same balance verification so OCR slips are flagged on the row. Free covers the first two pages per scan; Pro is unlimited.
