The Quicken Interchange Format (QIF) is an open file format used to transfer financial data between software programs. QIF files store data in plain-text, ASCII format, making them easily readable and editable. Each file begins with a header indicating the type of account (e.g., banking, credit card, or investment) and contains detailed transaction records with fields such as dates, amounts, payees, and categories.

Info
titleCan I import data from a QIF file into a banking or investment account?

Yes. While older versions of Quicken did not have this capability, there are no longer limitations on the types of accounts you can now import any account type using QIF.

See Exporting data from Quicken for information about setting up your export.
