Monzo bank feed for Xero: for personal accounts and Business Lite

Where the native Monzo feed falls short

Monzo has a native Xero feed, but only on the paid Business Pro and Team plans. Personal accounts, joint accounts and the free Business Lite plan cannot connect, which is exactly where many sole traders sit.

Monzo's CSV export is rich but quirky. There is no running balance column, so a hand-built import gives Xero no arithmetic proof the period is complete, and date and time arrive as separate columns. Every foreign purchase carries two amounts - the account-currency amount and the local spend amount with its own currency column - which is an easy mis-mapping when building an import file by hand. Transfers to and from Pots appear as ordinary-looking lines that need treating as transfers, not income or spend.

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.

1. Step 1

   Start with your statement

   Preview a file before choosing how to get it into Xero.

2. Step 2

   Upload your Monzo statement

   PDF, CSV or Excel - whatever you can export. Map the columns once and we remember the mapping.

3. Step 3

   We check it first

   Review dates, amounts and signs. Balance checks use the source data, and overlap checks use prior StatementClear uploads.

4. Step 4

   Send to Xero or download CSV

   Send eligible lines directly to Xero or download a Xero-ready CSV. You complete reconciliation in Xero.
