Upload your bank statement

ConnectOne Bank just got a lot bigger, and the merger behind that growth is the usual reason a QuickBooks link to one of these accounts needs rebuilding. ConnectOne Bancorp completed its merger with The First of Long Island Corporation on June 1 2025, with The First National Bank of Long Island merging into ConnectOne Bank as the surviving bank, creating a roughly $14 billion institution across New Jersey, New York, and Florida. Former First of Long Island accounts moved onto ConnectOne's systems, so any QuickBooks feed pointed at the old First National Bank of Long Island profile was retired in the conversion. While you relink, you can work straight from the statement. Upload a ConnectOne Bank PDF statement to the converter at the top of this page and get the transactions back in a format QuickBooks accepts.

The converter turns a ConnectOne Bank PDF statement into a .qbo Web Connect file that imports into QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks Desktop, plus matching Excel and CSV copies. Every transaction keeps its date, description, and amount, and the running total is checked against the statement before you export. Here is how ConnectOne accounts connect to QuickBooks, why the First of Long Island merger broke feeds, and when converting the PDF is the faster route.

A real .qbo file QuickBooks accepts

Built for the statements US banks actually send, checked before it exports.

Reconciliation

Every total checked against the statement

The converter adds up the transactions it parsed and matches that to the statement total before you export, so nothing is silently dropped.

Web Connect

A genuine .qbo, not a renamed CSV

Valid OFX 1.02 with QuickBooks Web Connect headers. Online and Desktop import it as a standard bank feed.

OCR

Scans and phone photos read line by line

OCR runs before parsing, so a scanned or photographed paper statement comes out the same as a digital PDF.

Volume

A year of statements in one batch

Bulk upload for catch-up and cleanup work. Each file gets its own reconciliation check and its own exports.

Locked files

Password-protected PDFs handled

Enter the password on upload. Multi-column and multi-page statement layouts are parsed too.

Exports

Excel and CSV in the same download

One conversion, three files: the .qbo for QuickBooks, an XLSX to review, and a CSV for everything else.

How to convert your statement to QuickBooks

Three steps. No column-mapping wizard.

1

Upload the PDF statement

Drag in a PDF, a scan, or a phone photo. Password-protected and multi-page files are fine.

2

Review the reconciled rows

Every transaction is extracted and checked against the statement total. You see the parsed rows before exporting.

3

Import into QuickBooks

Download the .qbo and import it as a Web Connect bank feed. Excel and CSV are in the same download.

Does ConnectOne Bank work with QuickBooks?

Yes. ConnectOne Bank works with QuickBooks. Through its business online banking, ConnectOne lets you export account activity to accounting software including Quicken and QuickBooks, or as a plain CSV file, and it supports an aggregated bank feed in QuickBooks Online. The connection works once the account is linked to the ConnectOne Bank entry with your current credentials. The friction is the 2025 merger: accounts that used to bank with The First National Bank of Long Island had to be reconnected under ConnectOne once their data moved during the conversion.

Which bank do I select in QuickBooks, ConnectOne or First of Long Island?

Select ConnectOne Bank, not The First National Bank of Long Island, if your account came over in the June 2025 merger. The First National Bank of Long Island merged into ConnectOne Bank as the surviving institution, so the old First of Long Island connection profile was retired and its feed no longer pulls transactions. Picking the retired entry sends your credentials to a connection that no longer matches your account, which is the most common reason these links fail after the merger. If QuickBooks still lists a First of Long Island option, do not use it for a migrated account; choose ConnectOne Bank and sign in with your current online banking login.

Why is ConnectOne Bank not connecting to QuickBooks?

ConnectOne Bank usually fails to connect because a former First of Long Island account is still pointed at the retired First National Bank of Long Island profile from before the June 2025 conversion, or because the aggregation feed needs a few days to map the migrated accounts. Until you deactivate the old feed and relink under ConnectOne Bank, downloads return nothing or throw a credentials error. The same delay shows up right after any large bank conversion. The fix is to reconnect under the ConnectOne entry. If the relink stalls or the first download is empty, convert the ConnectOne Bank PDF statement to a .qbo file with the tool above so you are not blocked.

How do I download ConnectOne Bank transactions to QuickBooks?

Log in to ConnectOne business online banking, open the account, and use the export or download option, choosing the QuickBooks Web Connect (.qbo) format and a date range. ConnectOne also lets you export to Quicken or to CSV, but QuickBooks Desktop needs the .qbo, so pick that format. Import the file in QuickBooks through Upload from file in QuickBooks Online, or File, Utilities, Import, Web Connect Files in Desktop. The live download usually reaches back only about 90 days, and statements from before the merger conversion may sit in a separate archive, so older periods are often out of range. When the .qbo option is missing or the download comes back as Quicken QFX or CSV, save the PDF statement for that period and convert it instead.

How do I download a ConnectOne Bank statement as a PDF?

Sign in to ConnectOne online banking, open the account, and go to the statements or documents section to view your eStatements. Pick the month you need and save it as a PDF with the download or print option. Statements issued under the First National Bank of Long Island name before the June 2025 conversion may appear in a historical archive rather than the current list, so check there for older periods. Business users find statements inside the business online banking portal. Whatever the source, the PDF you download converts the same way.

How do I import a ConnectOne Bank statement into QuickBooks?

Convert the ConnectOne Bank PDF to a .qbo file with the converter above, then import that file. In QuickBooks Online, go to Transactions, Bank transactions, then Upload from file, and choose the .qbo. In QuickBooks Desktop, go to File, Utilities, Import, Web Connect Files. QuickBooks asks which account the transactions belong to, then drops them into the banking review queue for matching and categorizing, exactly as a working feed would, without waiting on the ConnectOne reconnection or worrying about which entry to pick.

What a ConnectOne Bank statement looks like to the converter

ConnectOne Bank statements convert cleanly because the layout stays consistent month to month across its business and commercial accounts. Personal and business checking statements list transactions in date order with a description and amount, separating deposits and credits from checks, withdrawals, and fees, with a daily balance summary. Commercial and analysis accounts add service-charge sections. The converter strips out the summary boxes, fee tables, and inserts, so only real transactions reach your .qbo file, and it reads scanned or photographed statements through OCR the same way it reads a digital PDF, including older statements printed under the First National Bank of Long Island name.

When to convert versus connect the feed

Use the ConnectOne feed for going-forward activity once the account is relinked and behaving, since it keeps QuickBooks current with little effort. Convert the PDF statement when a former First of Long Island connection is mid-move to ConnectOne, when a download comes back as QFX or CSV instead of .qbo, or when you need history the feed misses: pre-merger months, opening balances for a new QuickBooks file, a catch-up period, or a closed account.

How accurate is the converted ConnectOne Bank file?

Accuracy is the part that matters most, because a converter that quietly drops or misreads a transaction costs far more time than it saves. The error usually surfaces during reconciliation, sometimes weeks later, while you chase a few dollars across a long register. This converter totals the transactions it parsed and checks that figure against the statement total before it lets you export, so the .qbo you import reflects every line ConnectOne printed. You review the parsed rows in the preview first, then export once the numbers tie out.
