About reports and statements
You can use the Equals API to generate CSV or PDF reports about past transactions and receive them by email. Currently, we support two types: transaction activity report and statement. A transaction activity report is a list of all transactions generated for an account over a given period, which can be up to the date you’re making the request. This report is available in CSV format only. A statement is a list of balances and completed transactions that occurred on an account over a given period, which can be up to the day before the date you’re making the request. This report is available in PDF and CSV format.We also provide an endpoint to list transaction activity for an account. It includes a number of filters, so you can easily narrow down your results. Your results will be returned as a normal JSON payload, rather than a downloadable CSV or PDF file.
