Import your Scalable Capital portfolio into Quantic
Scalable Capital exports your transactions as CSV. Quantic reads it through column mapping — no Scalable-specific code, and no login.
Scalable Capital is a German paying agent, which changes what an import is for. It has already withheld Kapitalertragsteuer and the Solidaritätszuschlag from your dividends and settled them with the Finanzamt, so you are not importing in order to work out a tax bill. You are importing so that your income, your cost basis and your yield on cost live somewhere that is not one broker's app — and so they survive you leaving it.
Quantic maps the file's columns rather than recognising the broker, so an export whose format changes next year needs no new release — you remap the one column that moved. It infers day-first dates and the comma decimal separator from your own rows, reads buys and sells from the sign of the quantity, folds the commission into the cost basis rather than discarding it, and identifies each holding by ISIN. That last one matters more in Germany than most places: a Frankfurt listing and its American original are the same company under two different tickers.

Save the mapping, so next month's export imports in one click.
The tax report is narrower than it looks from Germany. Dividends are handled for any residence, but the disposals section is written against Spanish rules and will not produce a German calculation — your Kapitalertragsteuer is already settled by Scalable anyway. We also have not validated Quantic against a real Scalable Capital export yet, so check the guessed columns rather than accepting them; if a file will not read, the import screen offers to send it to us so we can add a reader for it.
Key terms
- Cost basis (average cost)
- What you actually paid for the shares you hold, per share — the money you put in, including the commission, spread across your shares. Buying more at a different price moves it; selling doesn't, because selling doesn't change what the shares you kept cost you. It's the baseline your gain, your yield on cost and any future tax calculation are measured against.
- Commission
- What your broker charges to execute a trade. It's small per trade but it's real money, and it counts as part of what the shares cost you — which is why Quantic records the commission on every trade it can read from your statement.
- Withholding tax
- When you own a foreign stock, the company's home country usually skims a percentage off each dividend before it reaches you — say 15% on US shares. Quantic estimates this from where each holding is based and your tax residence, so your income reflects what actually arrives. It's the tax withheld at source only — not any tax your own country adds, nor amounts you can often reclaim or credit back under a tax treaty.
- Gross vs. net
- Gross is the dividend before tax; net is what actually lands after withholding tax. Quantic tracks both.
- ISIN
- The twelve-character code that identifies a security worldwide, regardless of which exchange it trades on or what ticker it uses there. Unlike a ticker, it doesn't change when a company renames itself — which is why an import identifies your holdings by ISIN where the file carries one, so a renamed company keeps its dividend history instead of splitting into two positions.
