Why BankTidy handles First Interstate Bank statements that other tools miss
First Interstate Bank is a regional bank with a non-standard statement layout that varies across its products, which is exactly where template-based converters tend to stumble. Its business and personal checking, savings, and card statements each arrange transaction and fee sections differently. BankTidy reads the First Interstate statement PDF as it actually appears rather than mapping it to a fixed template, and it reconciles each extracted transaction against the closing balance printed on the statement, so the CSV, Excel, QuickBooks, or Xero file you produce is proven complete before you begin matching it.

Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to convert my First Interstate Bank statement?
Yes. You upload a statement you already have — there's no First Interstate Bank login and no account linking. Files are processed only to produce your Xero import file and are not used to train anything; data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
Does this work if my First Interstate Bank statement is scanned or a photo?
Yes. BankTidy reads the page directly rather than relying on a pre-built template, so scans and phone photos work — exactly where template-based converters tend to fail.
Will the Xero output balance?
Every conversion checks the opening balance plus all transactions against the printed closing balance. If it ties out you get a reconciled confirmation; if not, the likely rows are flagged.
How many First Interstate Bank statements can I convert?
Three per month free, no card. Just have one big job? A one-time $9 pack covers 50 pages with no subscription, and credits never expire. Monthly plans start at $15 for regular volume.
Do I have to subscribe?
No. If you only need one statement converted, the $9 pack is a one-time purchase — nothing renews, nothing recurs. Plans exist for people converting statements every month.
