Guaranty Trust Bank, based in Lagos, Nigeria, delivers account statements as PDFs through its online banking portal. Upload the statement PDF below and download a QuickBooks-ready CSV (Date, Description, Amount) — extracted, normalized and reconciled first.
Privacy: uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete your download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes. Files are never used for any other purpose.
The QuickBooks export uses the Date, Description, Amount layout QuickBooks Online's bank-data upload accepts: one signed amount column, dates in a consistent format, descriptions cleaned of the PDF's line wrapping.
The main use is catch-up months in QuickBooks, imported in order and reconciled there. 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.
Trust in the output comes from the statement's own arithmetic. Guaranty Trust Bank prints balances that its transaction list must sum to; the converter repeats that sum independently on the extracted data. 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.
A Guaranty Trust Bank 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 Nigeria, bookkeepers commonly work in Sage and QuickBooks; 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.
Keep the PDF beside the CSV in your records. QuickBooks holds the transactions, but the statement PDF plus the conversion's reconciliation result is the evidence pair for the month.
These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.
Tip: where the portal shows a 'final' or 'corrected' version of a statement, convert that one — reissued statements supersede the original figures.
Save the statement as a PDF from Guaranty Trust Bank online banking, add it to the converter above, and take the a QuickBooks-ready CSV (Date, Description, Amount) it produces. Extraction, column normalization and the reconciliation check all happen before the download is offered.
Guaranty Trust 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.
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.
The statement PDF. It is the issued document and it carries the opening and closing balances the reconciliation check verifies against; a portal CSV has the transactions but nothing to prove them against.
No. The converter changes layout, not currency: figures stay in ₦ exactly as Guaranty Trust Bank printed them.
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.
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.
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.
No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
