Export U.S. Bank transactions

  1. Log in to U.S. Bank online banking and select the account you want to view.
  2. In the Transactions tile, select the download icon in the upper-right corner.
  3. Choose the date range and file format (Spreadsheet (.CSV)).
  4. Select Download.
  5. Select Open file, or save the file.

File formats and how far back you can go

Formats: Spreadsheet (.CSV), Quicken (.QFX), QuickBooks (.qbo). Choose CSV (or the spreadsheet option) for a budgeting app or spreadsheet.

History: Up to 18 months of transaction history. For anything older, U.S. Bank points you to your statements.

Good to know

  • U.S. Bank says transaction downloads aren’t available in the U.S. Bank Mobile App, so use a browser.
  • You can use Search (keyword, merchant, check number or date range) and Sort before you download.

Import into Money Tracker

Money Tracker is a budgeting app for iPhone and Android. CSV import is included on the free plan, and you don't have to link your bank.

  1. In Money Tracker, add an account for this card or bank account if you haven’t yet. Imported rows go into one of your accounts.
  2. On the Dashboard, tap the Settings icon in the top-left corner, then tap Import Data under Manage.
  3. Under Account, pick the account. Under CSV Data, tap Choose a CSV file and select the file you exported (or paste the CSV contents). Tap Continue.
  4. On Configure, check the separator, date format, number format and column mapping. Money Tracker detects these from your file’s headers, including separate debit and credit columns. If purchases show as positive numbers, map the amount column to “Amount (positive = spending)”. Tap Continue.
  5. On Preview, check the Valid and Errors counts and the sample rows, then tap Continue.
  6. On Review, check Rows to import and Duplicates (skipped), then tap the Import button, which shows how many transactions it will add.

Tips

  • Save the file where your phone can see it. Money Tracker opens files through the Files app, so if you exported on a computer, save the CSV to iCloud Drive or send it to your phone first.
  • Re-importing is safe. Rows that were already imported are skipped, so you can export an overlapping date range without creating duplicates.
  • Categories carry over when they match. If your file has a category column and a value matches one of your Money Tracker categories, it's applied directly. Other rows are categorized after import.
  • Pick CSV, not PDF. A PDF statement is a picture of your transactions, not data a budgeting app can read.
