What a Commonwealth Bank statement looks like

Commonwealth Bank statements use a Date, Transaction description, Debit, Credit and Balance layout, with dates in a DD MMM format. Descriptions include the merchant, card and BPAY references.

The layout matters because ConvertFin reads the selectable text inside your PDF and rebuilds each transaction as a spreadsheet row. Wherever Commonwealth Bank places the dates, descriptions, amounts and any running balance, the converter maps them into a small set of clean columns you can sort, filter and total.

Columns you get in the export

Every Commonwealth Bank statement is exported to the same tidy structure, in both Excel and CSV:

ColumnWhat it holds
DateThe transaction date from your Commonwealth Bank statement
DescriptionThe merchant or payee text, kept on a single row
AmountThe debit or credit as a single signed value
BalanceThe running balance where Commonwealth Bank prints one, left blank for card statements that carry no balance

You get the same columns whether you convert the bank statement to Excel or convert it to CSV, so the file is ready to open in Excel, Google Sheets, or import straight into accounting tools.

Tip. CommBank keeps a running balance on each line, so after converting you can reconcile the final row against the printed closing balance.

Is it safe to convert a Commonwealth Bank statement online?

With ConvertFin there is no online step for your data. Your Commonwealth Bank statement is processed entirely in your browser, so the PDF is never sent to a server, never stored, and never seen by us. That is the whole point of the client-side design: a bank statement carries your account number and full transaction history, so the safest converter is one that never receives the file in the first place. There is more detail on the security page.

Runs in your browser with pdf.js, nothing is uploaded or stored, no signup, and clean Date / Description / Amount / Balance columns out to Excel and CSV.

Commonwealth Bank conversion FAQ

Do I need to upload my Commonwealth Bank statement anywhere?

No. The conversion runs locally in your browser with pdf.js, so your Commonwealth Bank PDF never leaves your device and is not stored on any server.

What formats can I export a Commonwealth Bank statement to?

Both Excel (.xlsx) and CSV. The columns — Date, Description, Amount and Balance — are identical in either format, so you can open the file in Excel or Google Sheets or import it into your accounting software.

Is there anything specific to watch for with a Commonwealth Bank statement?

CommBank keeps a running balance on each line, so after converting you can reconcile the final row against the printed closing balance.

Does it work with a scanned Commonwealth Bank statement?

Only if the PDF has selectable text. Scanned or photographed image-only statements have no text layer to read, so those are not supported. Download the original PDF from Commonwealth Bank online banking instead of scanning a paper copy.
