What a Santander statement looks like as CSV
Statently turns separate withdrawals and deposits into one signed Amount column, cleans descriptions, and adds a category. This preview uses a fictional statement.
| Date | Description | Amount | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-06-03 | Northwind Payroll | +3,450.00 | Income |
| 2026-06-04 | Harbor Market | -84.21 | Groceries |
| 2026-06-06 | City Utilities | -126.40 | Utilities |

Private by design. Your uploaded PDF is processed in memory to create the CSV and is not stored.
Always review before importing. Compare totals and a sample of transactions with the original statement before reconciliation, tax filing, or accounting import.
Why Santander statements are annoying to convert by hand
Santander splits Money in and Money out into separate columns; the converter merges them into one signed Amount. You get one tidy ledger instead of fighting merged cells, split columns, and reference codes in a spreadsheet.

Frequently asked questions
- Is my Santander statement uploaded anywhere?
- Your PDF is processed in memory to extract the transactions and is not stored. Nothing is saved after the CSV is generated.
- Does it work with scanned Santander statements?
- Yes. Text-based PDFs and scanned/image PDFs both work — the extractor reads the page visually when there's no selectable text.
- What columns are in the CSV?
- Date, Description, Amount (signed — negative for money out, positive for money in), Category, and Balance when the statement shows one.
- Can I import the CSV into QuickBooks, Xero, or Excel?
- Yes. The CSV is plain and spreadsheet-ready, so it opens in Excel or Google Sheets and maps cleanly into accounting tools.
