ANZ bank feed for Xero: import ANZ statements as a live feed
ANZ's direct Xero feed covers transaction, savings, loan, funds management and credit card accounts, but it explicitly excludes asset finance products, ANZ Smart Choice Super and foreign currency accounts. Those are permanent exclusions, not outages, so no amount of reconnecting will produce a feed. StatementClear lets you review the statement, then send eligible lines to Xero or download a Xero-ready CSV. Direct delivery supports dates within the last year; older history uses CSV.
ANZ's direct feed is one of the better ones in Australia, and for a standard transaction or credit card account it does the job. This page is for the accounts it will not touch. ANZ excludes asset finance products, ANZ Smart Choice Super and foreign currency accounts from bank feeds entirely, and that is a policy exclusion rather than a fault, so waiting or reapplying changes nothing. A business holding a USD or NZD balance with ANZ, or running equipment finance, has an account that will never feed and a reconciliation that is manual forever. StatementClear lets you review the statement, then send eligible lines to Xero or download a Xero-ready CSV. Direct delivery supports dates within the last year; older history uses CSV.

Where the native ANZ feed falls short
ANZ has a direct Xero feed covering most of its range, including transaction, savings, loan, funds management and credit card accounts. Three categories are excluded outright: asset finance products, ANZ Smart Choice Super, and foreign currency accounts. Activation is next day for a weekday request, but a request made over a weekend does not start feeding until the following Tuesday.
The foreign currency exclusion is the one that hurts most, because it is exactly the account where manual entry is riskiest. An ANZ foreign currency statement is denominated in its own currency, so it needs a matching Xero bank account on a multi-currency plan, and every line has to keep its original currency amount rather than a converted one. Enter those by hand and the FX gain or loss at period end is built on numbers nobody can trace back.
The manual way, every month
- Download the statement for the missing period
- Check the file format, dates and signed amounts
- Import into the correct Xero account and review overlaps
- Compare the closing balance and reconcile the lines
A usable CSV or OFX from the provider may be enough. Native PDF import is also available for eligible US and Canadian Xero organisations.
Review the statement, then choose how to import it
Preview the extraction, check the transactions, then send eligible lines through Xero's Bank Feeds API or download a Xero-ready CSV. Direct delivery supports dates within the last year and can be blocked by another provider's feed connection. Use CSV for older history. Overlap checks cover previous uploads to the same StatementClear feed, so also check any period already imported from other sources.
