Xero + Business Loan Application: Complete Workflow
Preparing for business loan application and using Xero? Lenders and finance brokers require 6-12 months of business bank statements to assess cash flow and creditworthiness. Disorganised PDFs slow down applications. BankScan AI bridges the gap between your bank's PDF statements and Xero's import feature.
BankScan AI → Xero for Business Loan Application
Convert bank statement PDFs to CSV formatted for Xero import. Convert your business bank statements to clean spreadsheets showing cash flow, revenue patterns, and regular commitments — accelerating your loan application.
How It Works
Upload your bank statement PDF
Supports all major banks. Upload 6-12 months of business bank statements; asset finance may only need 3 months while commercial mortgages often require 24 months of statements.

Import for Business Loan Application into Xero
After converting your bank statements for business loan application:
- In Xero, go to Accounting > Bank accounts > select your account > Import a Statement
- Choose the CSV file from BankScan AI

Common Import Issues
