Chime + Wave: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Chime Financial bank statement into Wave? Chime uses MM/DD/YYYY and mobile-first format with Date, Description, Amount, and Balance columns, issued by The Bancorp Bank or Stride Bank as the underlying institution — which needs converting to CSV (Date, Description, Amount — Wave supports both single amount column and separate Income/Expense columns) for Wave import.

Wave's free tier has occasional processing delays on large files. Also, Wave uses MM/DD/YYYY by default which conflicts with UK DD/MM/YYYY — select the correct format during import.
