Family Bank statements to OFX: what you get

OFX exists so statements can move between financial software without retyping. The export writes the Family Bank transactions into that format, preserving dates, amounts and descriptions in their tagged fields.

The main use is desktop accounting and personal-finance software that imports OFX or QFX. Every conversion is checked against the statement itself: where the statement prints opening and closing (or running) balances, the extracted transactions must add up to them, or the conversion is flagged and the mismatched rows are marked. A statement whose layout the reader cannot parse is reported honestly — never passed off as converted.

The check itself is simple arithmetic, applied without exception: add the opening balance to every extracted transaction and compare the result with the closing balance printed on the Family Bank statement, then walk the running balances row by row. Passing both checks is the only route to a reconciled result; there is no partial pass and no silent correction. What cannot be proven is labelled, never smoothed over.

Before converting, spend thirty seconds on the Family Bank document itself: confirm the period matches the month you are closing, note the opening and closing balances, and scan for the period's largest transactions. The closing zone carries the balances and any fees or interest summaries; it is the closing zone the reconciliation check answers to, and the first place to look when a conversion is flagged.

In Kenya, bookkeepers commonly work in QuickBooks 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.

Month-end with Family Bank statements

A workable rhythm: download the month's PDF the day the period closes, convert it, read the reconciliation verdict, then import. Months proven in order chain together — each closing balance becomes the next month's opening — so a difference is always owned by exactly one month.

Before you use the file

Import the OFX file into a copy or a test account first if your software allows it: OFX imports typically cannot be undone in bulk, and a thirty-second trial shows whether the date range and account mapping are right before the real ledger takes the file.

How to download a statement PDF from Family Bank

  1. Get the statement from Family Bank itself. Statements downloaded from the bank's own portal are the document of record. Avoid email forwards and re-saved copies where you can.
  2. Open the account and find Statements or Documents. Statements usually live under the account menu, labelled Statements, Documents, or eStatements, depending on the bank.
  3. Download the periods you need. Pick the month (or months) you need. For catch-up bookkeeping, download each month as its own PDF.
  4. Save the PDF unchanged. A downloaded PDF carries the text layer the converter reads. If the portal only offers a print view, print to PDF instead of taking a picture.
  5. Upload and verify. Add the PDF to the converter on this page and read the reconciliation verdict on the result before exporting.

These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.

Tip: a statement that covers a partial period (account opened or closed mid-month) still converts and reconciles; its balances simply anchor a shorter chain.

Questions and answers

How do I convert a Family Bank statement to OFX?

Get the PDF from Family Bank's statements area, upload it here, and download the converted an OFX-formatted export of the statement's transactions. The converter reads the transactions, standardizes the columns and verifies the totals against the statement before the file is ready.

What date and number formats do Family Bank statements use?

Family Bank statements generally print dates as the order printed on the statement itself and amounts with the grouping printed on the statement itself. The converter reads the figures as printed and normalizes the output columns the same way for every bank.

What does the reconciliation check do?

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.

Are amounts converted into another currency?

No. The converter changes layout, not currency: figures stay in KSh exactly as Family Bank printed them.

Can I convert statements for several Family Bank accounts?

Yes — convert each account's statements separately so each one reconciles against its own balances, then combine the exports in your software if you need a single view.

What if Family Bank only offers paper statements?

Scan the statement as flat and straight as you can and upload the scan. OCR reads it, and the reconciliation check verifies the read against the printed balances; rows it cannot verify are flagged for a manual look.

How far back can I get Family Bank statements?

That depends on the bank's portal — most keep at least a year of PDFs online, and older periods can usually be requested. However far back you go, download each period as its own PDF.

Is the converted file ready to import into my accounting software?

The QuickBooks and Xero exports are laid out in the column order those tools import. The plain CSV and Excel exports suit everything else, including spreadsheet review before import.

Are my statement files kept?

No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
