Tide + Bench: Bridge the Gap
Need to get your Tide Business Banking bank statement into Bench? Tide uses DD/MM/YYYY and single Amount column with category tags, invoice references, and running balance — which needs converting to CSV (Date, Description, Amount — Bench bookkeepers handle column mapping during their review process) for Bench import.

Convert bank statements to CSV with BankScan AI for Bench-compatible import. Useful when bank feeds are unavailable or historical statements need processing. Tide business account statements include invoice references and categories that BankScan AI maps to your bookkeeping codes.
