Why convert OFX to QFX?
Banks that support Quicken's Web Connect feature provide .qfx files directly. If your bank only exports standard .ofx, the file lacks Intuit-specific tags that Quicken validates on import, so a dedicated converter is required.
How to convert OFX to QFX
OFX2QFX APP
Load the .ofx file in OFX2QFX to produce a .qfx file with the Intuit-specific fields Quicken requires. Import the result into Quicken via File > Import > Web Connect File (.QFX).
ProperSoft APP
Open the .ofx file in ProperSoft, select QFX as the output format, and save. Import the .qfx into Quicken via File > Import > Web Connect File (.QFX).

Open .QFX details →Quality & what to watch
- QFX is OFX with Intuit-specific extensions; core transaction data (dates, amounts, payees, account numbers) transfers intact.
- Quicken validates a financial institution identifier embedded in QFX files - if it is missing or unrecognised, the import is blocked even after conversion.
- The rename trick (
.ofx→.qfx) works only when the OFX file already contains a valid institution ID Quicken recognises; for most third-party bank exports it will not.
