Starling + Coconut: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Starling Bank bank statement into Coconut? Starling uses DD/MM/YYYY and single Amount column with +/- signs, merchant categories, and running balance — which needs converting to CSV (Date, Description, Amount — Coconut accepts a single amount column with positive for income and negative for expenses) for Coconut import.
