How it works

Three minutes from statement to clarity.

01

Download your statement

Get the PDF from your bank app or email — the same one you'd send for a visa or loan. Sift tells you exactly where to find it for each bank.

02

Drop it into Sift

Sift reads it inside your browser, unlocks password-protected PDFs, and checks every total against what your bank printed.

03

See the real picture

Spending by category, money between your own accounts set aside, bank charges, recurring payments and a 90-day forecast.

All your banks, one view

OPay, PalmPay, Kuda, GTBank, Moniepoint, FirstBank, FairMoney, Stanbic IBTC, Sterling, Providus and Globus side by side — with balances, cash flow and every transaction in one place.

Your own transfers set aside

Moving ₦50k from FirstBank to PalmPay isn't spending. Sift spots transfers between your accounts so your numbers stay honest.

Checked against your bank

Every statement is verified against the totals your bank printed on it. If something doesn't add up, Sift tells you.

Bank charges, found

Stamp duty, SMS alerts, card maintenance, transfer fees — added up, so you can see what banking really costs you.

Budgets that make sense

Set monthly limits per category and see where you stand at 75% and 100%.

A forecast you can play with

Recurring payments detected automatically, plus a 90-day projection with what-if sliders.

Privacy by design

We built Sift so we can't see your money.

Bank statements are some of the most sensitive documents you own. So Sift never uploads them. Your PDFs are opened, read and stored inside your own browser, encrypted on your device.

Switching devices? Download an encrypted backup protected by a passphrase only you know, and open it on the other device.

Questions

Do you connect to my bank account?+

No. Sift never asks for your bank login. You upload the PDF statement your bank already gives you.

Which banks work?+

Right now: FirstBank, Moniepoint, PalmPay, Globus Bank, OPay, Kuda, Kuda Business, GTBank, FairMoney, Stanbic IBTC, Sterling Bank, Providus Bank. If your bank isn't there, use “Request your bank” and we'll tell you when it's added.

My statement has a password. Will it work?+

Yes. Enter the password when Sift asks — the PDF is unlocked in your browser, and the password isn't sent or saved anywhere.

What if I clear my browser or change phones?+

Your data lives on your device, so download an encrypted backup from Settings and open it on the new device. Without a backup, just upload your statements again.

Is my data used to train AI?+

No. Your statements never reach us. Ask Sift sends a summary of totals only to answer the question you asked.
