# Download your Brex statements

Where to find Brex card and business account statements and how to get them into ZeraBooks as PDFs.

## Download a statement

Brex keeps card and business account statements in one documents menu.

1. Sign in to Brex on a computer.
2. Click your name at the top left and open "Statements and documents".
3. Choose the card statements or the business account (banking) statements.
4. Click the download icon on the month's row to get the PDF.
5. In ZeraBooks, click **Banks & Cards** › **Upload statement**, choose the matching account and upload the file. See [Upload a bank or card statement](https://www.zerabooks.com/help/banks-and-cards/upload-a-statement).

## How far back you can go

Brex keeps past statements online. Business account statements appear in the first week after the month ends.

## PDF or CSV

Download the **PDF** statement. ZeraBooks reads the printed opening and closing balances from it and uses them to prove the month is complete. See [How ZeraBooks proves a statement](https://www.zerabooks.com/help/banks-and-cards/how-zerabooks-proves-a-statement).

Brex statements are PDF only; transaction reports (including CSV) are a separate download. A CSV works in ZeraBooks too, but it usually has no opening or closing balance. After you upload one, enter both balances exactly as printed on the statement with **Fix statement details…** in Reconciliations. See [Fix a month that doesn't tie](https://www.zerabooks.com/help/reconciliations/fix-a-month-that-doesnt-tie).

Only need the transactions in a spreadsheet? Once you have the Brex PDF, convert it to Excel or CSV with the ZeraBooks [bank statement converter](/bank-statement-converter).

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important:** Brex card statements and business account statements are separate. Upload card statements into a credit card account and business account statements into a bank account in ZeraBooks.
{% endhint %}

<summary>Which statements should I download?</summary>

Every month from the date your books start, for every account, oldest first.
