Comma or semicolon separated values
CSV (Comma-Separated Values) files are plain text files used to store tabular data. They are commonly exported from Excel, Google Sheets, bank statement downloads, and e-commerce platforms like Shopify.
Upload a CSV file to view it as a formatted table, inspect your data, and download as JSON. Useful for checking bank statement exports, inspecting data files before importing to Excel, and converting tabular data to JSON for developers and APIs.

Why do my CSV characters look garbled?
The file likely uses Windows-1252 (Western European) encoding rather than UTF-8. Common with older Australian bank exports and Windows-generated files. To fix: open in Windows Notepad, File → Save As → Encoding: UTF-8. Then re-upload the saved file.
What is the difference between CSV and Excel files?
CSV is plain text — just values separated by commas, viewable in any text editor. Excel (.xlsx) is a binary format with formatting, multiple sheets, and formulas. CSV is universal and more compatible for data import/export; Excel is better for analysis and presentation. Most Australian accounting software (Xero, MYOB) exports to both.
