The bank statement
Payments come from the bank, not by hand. Buchify reads the statement and matches them.
- Import camt.053Every transaction in the statement — incoming and outgoing — with date, amount and reference.
- Several bank accountsPer account a number in the chart of accounts, the IBAN and the currency – a euro account too. The statement finds its account by the IBAN, each account has its own tab.
- No duplicate importsEvery file gets a fingerprint. Importing it twice doesn’t post anything twice.
- Check against the closing balanceIf the sum of the transactions doesn’t match the bank’s balance, Buchify tells you — before anything is posted.
- Match incoming paymentsAutomatically via the QR reference, otherwise with one click. Partial payments remain as an open balance.
- Pay supplier invoicesLink a debit to one or more open supplier invoices. The sum has to add up, otherwise nothing is posted.
- Already recorded by handIf you have already recorded a payment on the invoice, Buchify finds it on import and links the bank transaction to it – instead of booking it a second time.
- Stripe payouts booked automaticallyCard and TWINT payments through your Stripe account – payment link, till or Pixify shop – sit on an account of their own. Buchify fetches the fee from Stripe and books the payout to the bank itself, to the cent.
- VAT payment recognisedBuchify recognises a payment to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration and suggests the VAT settlement account – that is where closing the period booked what is owed.
- Payment file for suppliersTick your open supplier invoices and upload the file (pain.001) to your e-banking – with a QR or RF reference, in CHF and EUR, abroad too. You then match the debit here. More →
- Input tax at the right timeWith the received consideration method, the payment date counts — and that comes from the statement.

Questions about the bank
Does Buchify need access to my e-banking?
No. Buchify reads the camt file you download from your e-banking. It doesn’t connect to any bank and never knows a bank password. You upload the payment file for suppliers and salaries to your e-banking yourself.
