Built for production PDF → QBO conversion

Everything you need to convert bank statements to QuickBooks at scale.

PDF in, QBO out

POST a PDF bank or credit card statement; the API returns a .QBO (Web Connect) file ready to import into QuickBooks Desktop or QuickBooks Online via Bank Feeds.

Reconciled transactions

Each statement is parsed, transactions are reconciled against the printed balance, and the QBO file is generated only when extraction passes the reconciliation check.

9,000+ banks supported

Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Capital One, Citi, US Bank, Truist, plus 9,000+ regional and international banks. No per-bank templates.

Async + webhooks

Upload returns a documentId immediately. Poll the export endpoint or subscribe to a webhook. Built for batch ingestion.

Bearer-token auth

Personal Access Tokens scoped to your account. Documents encrypted at rest, hard-deletable via API.

Curl, Python, Node, anything HTTP

REST + JSON. Multipart upload. No SDK lock-in. Works from cron jobs, Lambdas, or your backend.

PDF to QBO API FAQ

QBO (QuickBooks Web Connect) is the file format QuickBooks uses to import bank transactions. Banks that don't support direct connections to QuickBooks distribute QBO files for manual import. DocuClipper generates valid QBO files from any PDF bank or credit card statement.
Yes, both. QuickBooks Online imports QBO via Bank Feeds > File Upload. QuickBooks Desktop imports via Banking > Bank Feeds > Import Web Connect File.
Yes. The export endpoint accepts format=qbo, ofx, or qif. The QFX format (Quicken Financial Exchange) is also available.
DocuClipper supports 9,000+ banks. New formats are added on request, usually within a few business days. Contact support with a sample statement and we'll add it.
Yes. Pass documentType=bankStatement and the API auto-detects credit card statements. The exported QBO file uses the correct CCSTMTRS payload so QuickBooks treats the account as a credit card.
Bearer-token auth using a Personal Access Token (PAT) scoped to your account. Generate tokens in your account settings; rotate or revoke any time.
