# Convert Brex CSV to QuickBooks (.QBO)

_Canonical: https://qbomaker.com/banks/brex.html_

Brex is a corporate-card and business-account platform, not a traditional bank, and its export is built around CSV. From the Accounting or Transactions view you can download in CSV, TXT, or Excel, and Brex even lets you build custom export templates where you rename headers, reorder columns, and add or drop fields. That flexibility is great until you need a .QBO file: Brex doesn't produce one.If you don't use Brex's direct QuickBooks Online integration (or you're on QuickBooks Desktop, which has no CSV banking import at all), you're stuck with a CSV that QuickBooks won't ingest cleanly. Because Brex templates are customizable, two exports can have totally different headers, so generic importers choke on them. QBO Maker reads whatever columns your template produced, lets you map Date / Description / Amount, and writes a standards-compliant .QBO (or .QFX / .OFX). It runs 100% in your browser, your Brex spend data is never uploaded. Convert your Brex export now.

## Steps

1. Export your transactions from Brex online banking as CSV or Excel.
2. Open the QBO Maker converter and drop the file in.
3. Confirm the auto-detected date, amount (or separate debit/credit) and description columns.
4. Choose .QBO as the output and click download.
5. In QuickBooks Online: Transactions → Bank transactions → Upload from file, then select the .QBO. In Desktop: Banking → Bank Feeds → Import Web Connect File.

**Can I get a .QBO file directly from Brex?**
No. Brex exports CSV, TXT, and Excel only. If you need a .QBO for QuickBooks Desktop (or a clean Web Connect import), you'll convert the CSV. Drop your Brex export into the converter and you'll get a .QBO in seconds.

**My Brex CSV columns don't match a standard layout, will it still work?**
Yes. Because Brex lets you customize export templates, QBO Maker asks you to confirm which columns are Date, Description, and Amount. Once mapped, it handles the rest regardless of how your template was built. You can even save the mapping as a template on Pro.

**Should I convert Brex card and Brex cash transactions together?**
No, keep them separate. Export and convert the card activity and the business-account activity as distinct CSVs, then import each .QBO into its matching QuickBooks account so reconciliation stays clean.

**Is converting safe for sensitive corporate-card data?**
Yes. The entire conversion happens locally in your browser, nothing is uploaded to any server. Your Brex transactions stay on your device, and you can verify the resulting file with the validator.
