How to import your Mint export

Updated November 3, 2026 · 4-minute read

Mint shut down in 2024. If you downloaded your transactions before it closed, you can keep your history: MAAT reads the Mint file directly.

What you need

• The transactions file you exported from Mint. It’s a CSV file, usually named transactions.csv, with columns like Date, Description, Original Description, Amount, Transaction Type, Category, Account Name, Labels and Notes.
• A computer or phone with MAAT open. On a computer, open MAAT in your browser.

Steps

1. Find the file. Check your Downloads folder, email or cloud storage for transactions.csv from Mint.
2. Open Transactions → Import transactions in MAAT.
3. Choose the file, or open it, copy everything and paste it in. MAAT recognizes a Mint file on its own.
4. Check the preview. For each account in the file, choose which MAAT account it goes to, or leave it out.
5. Match categories. Mint categories that MAAT doesn’t have can be matched to yours, turned into new ones, or left as Uncategorized for your saved rules to sort.
6. Import. Transactions already in MAAT are skipped, so importing the same file twice never adds anything twice.

Very large files come in parts: the first part imports now, and MAAT tells you how many more to bring in from a second file.

Didn’t save a Mint export?

You can still rebuild your history from the source: your bank and card websites. Most let you download transactions as CSV, OFX, QFX (Quicken) or QIF files, often for a year or more. MAAT reads all of these the same way. Look for “Download”, “Export” or “Statements” in your bank’s online account.

Coming from Monarch Money or YNAB?

MAAT also reads Monarch Money transaction exports and YNAB register exports (including the older YNAB 4 format). The steps are the same as above.

After importing

• Add your income and bills under Income & Expenses so Safe to spend and the forecast know what’s coming.
• Set monthly budgets in one tap: MAAT can fill them in from your last 3 months.
• Invite your partner or roommate under Settings → Profile → People.
