About Quicken Interchange Format (.qif)

QIF is Quicken's original text-based format. Modern Intuit products deprecated it, but it remains the lingua franca for open-source personal finance apps (GnuCash, KMyMoney, HomeBank) and legacy Quicken installations. Our converter emits a well-formed QIF with proper date normalisation and !Type:Bank headers.

FAQs

Why doesn't modern Quicken accept QIF for bank accounts?

Intuit dropped bank-account QIF import in Quicken 2005 to push Direct Connect. Use QFX or QBO instead — we support both.

What date format does the QIF use?

MM/DD/YYYY by default; toggle to DD/MM/YYYY in export options for European/Australian conventions.
