Import your Mint data into Fyncora

Mint is gone, but your transactions CSV still works — Fyncora reads Mint's exact format, including the Transaction Type column that decides income vs expense.

Intuit shut Mint down, but the export format it used for years is still the best-understood CSV in personal finance. If you have a Mint file, Fyncora has a verified preset that reads it exactly as Mint wrote it.

What you'll need

A Mint transactions CSV — usually named transactions.csv, with the columns Date, Description, Original Description, Amount, Transaction Type, Category, Account Name, Labels, Notes. Any of these routes can produce one:

  • An export you saved while Mint was still running.
  • Intuit's data download, if your account still offers it: Account → Data & privacy → Download your data.
  • The open-source "Mint Data Exporter" Chrome extension (published by Monarch), if you used it before access closed.
Note:

Note: these recovery routes depend on Intuit still serving your data, and that window has been closing since the shutdown. If none of them work and you've been using another app since, export from that app instead — see Switch from another app.

Import the file

  1. In Fyncora, open Transactions and select Switch from another app.
  2. Pick Mint (Intuit).
  3. Upload your transactions.csv.
  4. Map each Account Name from the file to a Fyncora account, creating any that don't exist yet.
  5. Review the category matches and the preview, then commit.

The preset does the reading for you. Mint writes every amount as a positive number and uses the Transaction Type column to say which way the money went — the preset turns debits into expenses and credits into income, so nothing arrives flipped. Dates are read as MM/DD/YYYY, Labels become Fyncora tags, and Original Description is kept in notes. Category names are matched to yours (Mint's "Restaurants" lands in Dining, "Gas & Fuel" in Transportation); anything unmatched arrives uncategorized for you to fix in bulk.

What comes across, and what doesn't

Comes across: your dated transactions with amounts, descriptions, categories and labels.

Doesn't come across: budgets, goals, and recurring bills. Those are quick to set up fresh in Fyncora — and they'd be wrong if we guessed them from a shut-down app's file.

After the import

Check a handful of rows before you trust the numbers: a paycheck should be positive, groceries negative. If anything looks off, you can remove the whole import in one step — open Transactions, find the import batch, and select Delete batch.

FAQ

Why did everything import as income? The file was read without Mint's rules — Mint amounts are all positive, so the direction lives in the Transaction Type column. Delete the batch and re-import, picking Mint (Intuit) as the source.

Why were rows rejected for their dates? Mint dates are MM/DD/YYYY, which the preset expects. If you opened the CSV in a spreadsheet app first, it may have rewritten the dates — go back to the original file.

Is it safe to import twice? Yes. Fyncora fingerprints each row (date, amount, description, account) and skips ones it already has, so a re-import doesn't double your history.
