About BooksReady

BooksReady turns the CSV files that payment apps and marketplaces let you download into files that accounting software can import. It exists because the usual answer to "how do I get my Venmo or Stripe history into QuickBooks" is a forum thread of people failing, a paid desktop program, or a script on GitHub.

Everything happens in your browser. The page loads a small conversion engine, reads your file on your device, and builds the output file there. Your file is never uploaded, so there is no server copy to leak, and the tool keeps working if you lose your connection after the page has loaded.

Each source format is built from real export layouts found in public files and the apps' own documentation, and each output follows the import rules the accounting software documents. Where a detail could not be confirmed, the converter takes the cautious choice, and when a file has something it cannot handle with certainty, it tells you in plain language instead of guessing.

The tool is free to use. It is not accounting or tax advice: how to categorize payments, fees and taxes is a question for you and whoever prepares your return.

Open source

The conversion engine is open source under the MIT license, so you can read exactly what it does with your file: source code on GitHub.

Not affiliated

BooksReady is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Intuit, Xero, Quicken, PayPal, Venmo, Block (Cash App and Square), Stripe, Shopify, Wise, Etsy, Airbnb, Gumroad, Amazon, eBay, ING or Rabobank. Their names appear only to say which files the converter reads and writes.

Something did not import?

The converter shows a note for anything unusual it finds in a file. If an import still fails, the error text from your accounting software and the name of the source app are what we need to fix it. Send them through the contact form; there is no public email address, and you do not need to give one unless you want a reply.
