In this tutorial, we will walk you through how to convert your Wells Fargo statement to Excel using Lido. Simply follow the steps below.
Before you start, make sure you have your Wells Fargo statement saved as a PDF, image, or scanned copy. If you bank online, you can download PDF statements from the statements and documents section of your Wells Fargo account.
If you don't have a Lido account yet, you can create one for free here.
Once you're logged in, create a New File.
Click on Tools in the top menu and select the PDF Table Extractor. This tool is designed to read tables and structured data from your bank statement.
Drag and drop your file into Lido, or click to upload. PDFs, scanned images, and photos of paper statements all work.
For the purpose of this tutorial, we are using a sample statement, but Wells Fargo statements share the same basic layout, so the steps apply to yours. Wells Fargo statements are split into sections, so you can extract just the ones you need. Drag the selection box over the tables you want to pull. Once you have your selection, click Extract Data.
Review the extracted data to make sure everything looks correct. You can go back to adjust your selection. When you're satisfied, click Insert at Active Cell to add it to your spreadsheet.
You can edit and format the cells however you need. Adjust column widths, format amounts as currency, or reorganize the data to suit your workflow. Withdrawals may show as positive numbers in the transaction list, so you may want to add a column that makes them negative before you calculate totals.
Once you're done, click Export to Excel at the top to download your Wells Fargo statement data as a spreadsheet file.
Lido handles Wells Fargo PDF statements from online banking and scanned paper statements.
Format notes: Wells Fargo statements include a daily balance summary table at the end that some converters incorrectly merge with the transaction table. Business account statements have a different layout from personal accounts.
Lido's AI handles these format variations automatically. Unlike template-based converters that break when layouts change, Lido reads the document contextually, so it adapts to Wells Fargo's specific formatting without manual configuration.
Copy-paste from online banking: Wells Fargo's website lets you view transactions online, but copying and pasting into Excel produces messy formatting that requires significant cleanup. This works for a handful of transactions but breaks down at volume.
CSV download from Wells Fargo: Some Wells Fargo accounts let you download transactions as CSV directly from online banking. This works for recent transactions but doesn't cover older statements, scanned paper statements, or statements received from clients.
Manual data entry: Typing transactions into Excel. At roughly 45-60 minutes per 30-page statement with a 2-4% error rate, this is the option Lido replaces.
