Import guide

Importing your Belfius transactions

Through Belfius Direct Net you can download your account history as a CSV file. That is all piggyme needs: your data stays yours, with no bank connection or third party involved.

First time: about five minutes. After that: one download and one drag-and-drop per month.

Exporting at Belfius

1. Sign in to Belfius Direct Net at belfius.be (on your computer — easiest for downloads).
2. Open your account and view the transaction history.
3. Pick the period and find the export/download option; choose CSV as the file format.
4. Download the file — that is all you need.

The export option lives near the transaction history; its exact spot varies slightly per version.

Importing into piggyme

1. Open piggyme and drag the downloaded file into the window (or click "Import your bank export" and pick the file).
2. piggyme recognises the columns automatically. If something looks off, the column helper shows exactly what it found and you point it to the right column — once; it remembers for future imports.
3. Done: your transactions get categories right away, and your overview, budgets and forecast fill themselves in. Fix a few categories if needed — the app learns from every correction.

Good to know

• Multiple accounts or banks? Drop all the files in at once — piggyme merges everything and automatically cancels out transfers between your own accounts.
• Re-importing overlapping periods is harmless: duplicates are recognised and only counted once.
• Your file stays on your own device — on the free plan your data never leaves your computer, and with Plus everything syncs end-to-end encrypted.
• Import monthly (or weekly if you like to stay on top of it) — forecasts and alerts get sharper with more history.
