# Convert Varo CSV to QuickBooks (.QBO)

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

Varo is one of the most locked-down exports out there. It's an app-only, mobile-first bank: statements come as PDFs from My Varo > Statements and Documents, and there's no desktop banking site where you could download a structured file. Varo offers no CSV, Excel, OFX, QFX or QBO export, which makes getting transactions into QuickBooks genuinely awkward.QBO Maker can still help, once you have the data in a spreadsheet. QBO Maker reads CSV, Excel and text-based PDFs (scanned PDFs need a CSV step first) into a clean OFX/QBO file. So the workflow is: get your Varo activity into a CSV first (you'll need a separate PDF-to-CSV step since Varo won't hand you a CSV), then drop that CSV here. The converter rebuilds it as a .QBO QuickBooks Desktop accepts, or a CSV-to-QuickBooks-Online-ready file, with amounts signed correctly and dates normalized.Everything runs client-side in your browser, so your Varo transactions are never uploaded. If you can get a Varo CSV together, convert it here and skip the manual QuickBooks data entry entirely.

## Steps

1. Export your transactions from Varo 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.

**Does Varo let me export transactions as CSV?**
No. Varo is app-only and provides PDF statements exclusively, there is no built-in CSV, Excel, OFX, QFX or QBO export. You'll need to convert your Varo PDF into a spreadsheet first, then bring that CSV to QBO Maker.

**Can QBO Maker read my Varo PDF statement directly?**
No, QBO Maker reads CSV, Excel and text-based PDFs (scanned PDFs need a CSV step first) into .QBO. Use a PDF-to-CSV tool to extract your Varo transactions into a spreadsheet, then upload that CSV here to generate the QuickBooks file.

**Why won't QuickBooks take my Varo data?**
QuickBooks Desktop only imports .QBO/Web Connect files, and Varo provides none. Even for QuickBooks Online, a hand-built Varo CSV often maps incorrectly. Converting to .QBO gives QuickBooks a format it reads natively, no column mapping required.

**Is my Varo data kept private during conversion?**
Yes. The entire conversion happens in your browser. Your Varo CSV is never uploaded or stored, and you can inspect the output with the validator before importing into QuickBooks.
