Dext + Photographers & Videographers: Faster Bank Import
Photographers juggle client deposits, final payments, equipment purchases, and travel expenses — often mixing personal and business transactions. If you use Dext for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for Photographers & Videographers Using Dext
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV formatted for direct import into Dext. Convert your bank statements to Excel to separate business income from personal spending, track equipment costs, and prepare your self-assessment return.
The Photographers & Videographers + Dext Workflow
Photographers collect booking deposits, receive final balance payments before or after shoots, purchase and maintain equipment, pay for travel and accommodation for location work, and license images through stock agencies. They reconcile bank statements to match payments against client bookings, track equipment purchases for capital allowances, and prepare records for self-assessment.
Key terms you'll encounter: booking deposit, usage rights, capital allowances, stock licensing income.
How It Works
Upload any bank statement PDF
Supports all major banks. Saves 1-2 hours per month on income and expense tracking, plus 2-3 hours at year-end separating business and personal transactions for self-assessment
AI formats for Dext
