EXPORT GUIDE
How to export Bank of America transactions to CSV
A CSV is a spreadsheet file of your transactions. Here’s exactly where to click at Bank of America. Then Statement Scout finds every subscription in it, right in your browser. No bank login, no account.
Bank of America
- 1 Sign in at bankofamerica.com on a computer.
- 2 Open the account you want.
- 3 Click “Download”, just above your transactions.
- 4 Choose your date range.
- 5 For File type, choose “Microsoft Excel Format” (it downloads as a CSV), then click “Download Transactions”.
Avoid the Quicken and QuickBooks options: those files are for other software. Credit cards usually allow the last 12 months.
Last checked November 2026. Bank websites change from time to time. If a button has moved, look for “Download” or “Export” near your list of transactions.
Good to know
- “Microsoft Excel Format” downloads a .csv file. That’s the one you want.
- Online Banking covers roughly the last 18 months. Anything older is in your PDF statements.
Got your file? You’re ready.
Drop it into Statement Scout. It’s read on your device and never uploaded.
Find My SubscriptionsTroubleshooting
The file ends in .csv, not .xlsx. Is that right?
Yes. Bank of America calls it Microsoft Excel Format, but it saves a CSV. Statement Scout reads it as is.
Where are my older transactions?
Downloads only go back so far. For older months, open Statements & Documents and use the PDFs.
It says it found nothing.
Your file probably covers too little time. A subscription needs to show up at least twice to be spotted, so download 3 months or more and try again.
It says the file isn’t a statement.
Make sure you downloaded the spreadsheet (CSV) version, not a PDF statement or a Quicken/QuickBooks file. If you opened the file in Excel and saved it again, download a fresh copy from your bank.
