How to Convert Synchrony Bank Statements to Excel
Quick Answer: To convert a Synchrony Bank statement to Excel or CSV, log in to the Synchrony portal, download your monthly PDF from the Statements section, then upload it to QuickBankConvert. QuickBankConvert extracts all transactions from the PDF and delivers a clean, column-formatted spreadsheet in under 30 seconds.
Synchrony Bank and Its Statement Formats
Synchrony Bank is one of the largest issuers of store credit cards and private-label financial products in the United States, as well as a provider of high-yield savings accounts, CDs, and money market accounts. Synchrony powers the credit programs for retailers like Amazon, Lowe's, TJX, and dozens of others, meaning many Americans have a Synchrony account even if they don't recognize the Synchrony name.
Synchrony offers two primary types of accounts that generate statements relevant to conversion:
High-Yield Savings Account (HYSA): Synchrony's online savings account is a popular choice for emergency funds and short-term savings, with competitive APYs. Monthly statements are available as PDFs from the online portal.
Synchrony-Issued Credit Cards: Synchrony issues store cards and cash-back cards for a wide range of partners. These cards generate monthly credit card statements with purchase history, payment records, and interest charges.
The challenge with both statement types is the same: Synchrony does not offer a native CSV or Excel download. For anyone who needs their Synchrony transaction data in a structured format, PDF conversion is the path forward.
How to Download a Synchrony Statement
For the Synchrony HYSA (Online Savings)
- Log in at mysynchrony.com or synchronybank.com.
- Click on your Online Savings Account from the accounts dashboard.
- Navigate to Statements & Documents or eStatements in the account menu.
- Select the statement period you need.
- Click View or Download to open the PDF.
- Save the PDF to your computer.
For Synchrony Credit Cards
- Log in to your card's account portal (this may be a co-branded portal like mysynchrony.com or a retailer-branded portal).
- Navigate to Statements or Payment History.
- Select the billing period and download the PDF statement.
Tip: If you have multiple Synchrony credit cards (e.g., both an Amazon Store Card and a CareCredit card), each is managed through a separate portal or tab within mysynchrony.com. Download statements from each account separately.
Converting with QuickBankConvert
Once you have your Synchrony PDF, conversion with QuickBankConvert is quick:
- Go to [QuickBankConvert](/) โ no account or download required.
- Upload your Synchrony PDF: Drop the file on the upload area or click to browse.
- Preview the extracted data: QuickBankConvert shows a transaction table. Verify dates, descriptions, and amounts match what you see in the PDF.
- Choose output format: CSV for importing into budgeting apps or accounting software; Excel for direct analysis.
- Download your file: Click Export and save.
All processing is browser-local. Your Synchrony statement data stays on your device.
Privacy note: Synchrony accounts often include sensitive credit data (credit card purchases, payment history). QuickBankConvert's browser-only architecture ensures this data never leaves your device during conversion.
Synchrony Statement Quirks
Credit Card vs. Savings Statement Layout
Synchrony credit card statements and savings account statements have distinctly different layouts. Credit card statements include sections for New Charges, Payments, Credits, Fees, and Interest โ each as a separate table. QuickBankConvert handles both, but the output structure will reflect the type of statement.
Interest Charges and APR Summaries
Credit card statements include interest charge rows and sometimes an APR summary table. These will appear in the converted output. You may want to filter out summary/non-transaction rows after export.
Store-Branded Headers
Co-branded Synchrony credit cards (Amazon, Lowe's, Gap, etc.) have retailer logos and branding in the statement header. QuickBankConvert skips header content and extracts from the transaction table.
Savings Interest Credits
On the HYSA statement, interest credits appear as separate rows (labeled "Interest Paid" or similar) at the end of each month's transactions.

Using Synchrony Data in Excel
Interest income for taxes: Synchrony HYSA interest is taxable income. A monthly spreadsheet of interest credits, combined with your 1099-INT, ensures accurate tax reporting and helps with quarterly estimated payments.
Credit card expense tracking: If you use a Synchrony store card for purchases (e.g., all home improvement at Lowe's), converting the monthly statement to CSV gives you a clean categorized expense record.
Payment history verification: For credit monitoring or dispute resolution, having your payment history in a spreadsheet makes it easy to verify on-time payments and cross-reference with your credit report.
Savings growth visualization: Use the Balance column from converted savings statements to build a chart showing your HYSA balance over time โ useful for tracking progress toward a savings goal.
Callout โ For Amazon Store Card Holders: If you use the Amazon Store Card (issued by Synchrony) for all your Amazon purchases, converting your monthly statement to CSV gives you a complete purchase history that is far easier to analyze than scrolling through Amazon order history. Use it to identify subscription charges, evaluate spending on specific product categories, or prepare for tax deductions on business-related purchases.
Tips for Accurate Conversions
- Use the true PDF, not a print-to-PDF screenshot: Always download the PDF from Synchrony's portal, not a browser print. Printed PDFs may lack the text layer needed for parsing.
- Credit card statements can be long: Some months may have 50+ transactions across multiple pages. QuickBankConvert handles multi-page PDFs โ just verify the row count after conversion.
- Look for the "Fees" section separately: Credit card statements often include a fees summary table in addition to the transaction list. Review the output to ensure fee rows are captured correctly.
- Separate cards, separate conversions: If you have multiple Synchrony credit cards, convert each statement separately. Do not try to combine them into a single PDF before uploading.
Callout โ For CareCredit Holders: CareCredit (issued by Synchrony) is widely used for healthcare expenses โ dental, vision, veterinary, etc. Healthcare expenses can be tax-deductible above certain thresholds. Converting your CareCredit statements to CSV makes it straightforward to total your annual healthcare spending for tax preparation.
