If you use Keeper to track business write-offs, you can link it directly to your Capital One account for automatic scanning of bank statements. If you prefer to download your statements as a spreadsheet, log into Capital One on a computer, view your account, and download transactions as a .csv file. However, using Keeper simplifies this process by automatically categorizing your transactions without needing to download or upload anything.

Step #1: Log into Capital One on a laptop or desktop

You’ll need to go to https://www.capitalone.com/ and log into your account. Unfortunately, neither the app or the mobile website for Capital One allow you to export your statements. It has to be from a computer.
