What is an OFC file?

OFC files mostly belong to OFX Home Banking. OFC files hold banking transaction data under the Open Financial Connectivity (OFC) format.
This file is mainly used as a bank statement file to import and share account data with personal finance or online banking software.
Key points summarized by FilExt.com:

They are structured to contain transaction details and account balances.

The major use—account management—is supported by OFX Home Banking systems.

A small portion is used by Brazilian banks; for instance, files marked as Brazilian bank statements are linked with Itaú Bankline.

If you have an OFC file, you will need a finance application that reads this format.
FilExt.com tip: You can also open the file in a text editor to view its structure, but do not edit the file manually as this can corrupt its data.

How to open an OFC file

You need a suitable software like OFX Home Banking to open an OFC file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your OFC file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a OFC file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

OFC format details:

To find out what program is needed to open OFC files, you need to determine the file format. The initial characters of a file are called signature, sometimes also referred to as "magic bytes". The signature can be used to infer the file format. If the file extension does not match the file format, double-clicking on the file will cause an error upon opening. If there are problems opening a file, you must first determine the file format used. Our analysis of the OFC files produces the following result:

The OFC file extension predominantly uses a uniform format. But the following two file formats are common:

• 90% of all OFC files belong to Open Financial Connectivity. The files are using the common file format XML. The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a simple text-based format for representing structured information: documents, webpages, data, configuration, books, transactions, invoices, and much more. XML defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. The contents of these files can even be read by a human. The files are often between 1 KB and 34 KB in size. The file type is relatively new. Several words can almost always be found in the files, e.g. ACCTID, BANKID, <OFC>, <ACCTFROM>, <ACCTSTMT>, DTSTART, DTEND, <STMTRS>, </ACCTFROM>, <CPAGE>1252, <DTD>2, LEDGER, <ACCTTYPE>0, <STMTTRN> and TRNTYPE. Files like these are sometimes connected to statement, nodelx, nbcinter, transaction, history, cpte, brackley and extrato.
• 5% of all OFC files use the same file format, which can be identified by the letters "0 1 13 341 " at the beginning. They consist of unreadable binary data. Most of these files are 620 bytes to 19 KB in size.

All other OFC files (5%) have no uniform format. Tagged as transactions, account, nedbank or caixa. Just click the "Choose your .ofc file to view" button on this page to find out what your OFC file is.
