Tangerine, based in Toronto, Canada, delivers account statements as PDFs through its online banking portal. Upload the statement PDF below and download an Excel (.xlsx) workbook — extracted, normalized and reconciled first.
Converting to Excel gives you the Tangerine statement as a working document rather than a picture of one: every transaction on its own row, amounts as numbers you can sum, and the reconciliation outcome written into the file so the proof travels with the data.
The main use is catch-up bookkeeping, where a year of statements needs sorting before import. Statements from Canada banks print dates as a written month or day/month/year — "Apr 3, 2026" and 03/04/2026 both appear and amounts with a comma for thousands and a point for decimals (1,234.56) — the converter's locale-aware reader handles that layout, and then the reconciliation check proves the result: the extracted transactions must add up to the balances printed on the statement itself, or the conversion is flagged.
Reconciliation is what separates conversion from copying. Once the Tangerine transactions are extracted, the converter replays them: opening balance plus each row in turn must reproduce every printed running balance and land exactly on the closing figure. A conversion only reports as reconciled when both tests agree to the cent — and when they do, the figures have been proven against the bank's own document, not merely read from it.
A Tangerine statement's layout decides how differences behave. In a chronological layout with a running balance, a single dropped row shifts every later balance, which makes it easy to spot. In a sectioned layout — deposits, then withdrawals, then fees — compare section totals first. Knowing which layout you hold tells you where to look before the marked rows even load.
In Canada, bookkeepers commonly work in QuickBooks, Wave, Xero and Sage; the Excel and CSV exports from this converter are the files those tools import, and the QuickBooks export is laid out for direct import where the tool accepts it.
Ask clients for the issued PDFs rather than portal screenshots or spreadsheet exports. The PDF is the only version that carries the balances the check needs, and a folder of monthly PDFs plus their conversion results is an audit trail that assembles itself.
A converted workbook is a good place to code transactions: add your own category column beside the standard ones rather than editing descriptions, so the file can always be re-performed against the statement. Keep the summary block intact when you pass the file on — it is the evidence the figures were checked.
These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.
Tip: if the bank offers both a statement PDF and a transaction-list PDF, take the statement — it is the one carrying the balances the reconciliation check needs.
Get the PDF from Tangerine's statements area, upload it here, and download the converted an Excel (.xlsx) workbook. The converter reads the transactions, standardizes the columns and verifies the totals against the statement before the file is ready.
Expect a written month or day/month/year — "Apr 3, 2026" and 03/04/2026 both appear dates and amounts with a comma for thousands and a point for decimals (1,234.56) on a Tangerine statement. The reader is locale-aware, so those conventions are handled rather than misread, and the output columns come out in the standard layout regardless.
Where the statement prints opening and closing (or running) balances, the converter adds up the extracted transactions and compares the result with the statement itself. If the numbers do not tie, the conversion is flagged and the mismatched rows are marked — a failed check is never shown as a success.
Yes. Credit-card statements use a Previous Balance / New Balance layout, which the converter reads as well; purchases are positive and payments are negative, and the same totals check applies.
Date, Description, Amount, Debit, Credit and Balance — the same normalized columns for every bank, so a Tangerine file and a file from any other bank in Canada can be imported and reviewed the same way.
The conversion is flagged, and the rows whose running balance disagrees with the statement are marked with the expected and printed figures. Nothing is silently adjusted — you see exactly where the statement and the extraction part company.
Yes. Scans and photo-based PDFs are read with OCR and marked as OCR-extracted. The reconciliation check applies identically; on a poor scan it is the check that tells you whether the read can be trusted.
No. There is no sign-up: upload the PDF, check the reconciliation result, download the file. Uploaded files and exports are deleted automatically within 15 minutes.
No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
