Convert a Starling Bank statement to QuickBooks
QuickBooks won't read a PDF, and Starling Bank won't export straight to QuickBooks. Convert your Starling Bank statement into a clean, categorized CSV, then import it into QuickBooks Online in a couple of clicks.
Why Starling Bank statements don't import into QuickBooks directly
QuickBooks imports bank data from CSV, not PDF, so a Starling Bank statement has to be converted first. Starling business statements mix personal and Spaces activity; the converter lists every transaction in one date-ordered ledger. You get one clean, QuickBooks-ready ledger instead of fighting merged cells and split columns.

- 2. Open the bank upload. In QuickBooks Online: Transactions → Bank transactions → Upload from file.
