I hope online banking integration will be optional as I have tried too many apps that offer that and in my opinion it just overly complicates and removes a level of freedom and control.
Hello James, I feel the same way. I don’t want to change the philosophy of the app MoneyStats with the integration of banking either, I just want to create the option of automatically loading transactions into the app. The flexibility and configurability of the transactions should be retained, for example by giving you the option to set different comments or a new amounts for the imported transaction, if you wish, without it being overwritten again. As I said, this new feature will be optional and will only extend my services if desired. Otherwise, I’m of course open for feedback and improvements. Regards, Tom
Hi Tom, thanks for your amazing tool 🙂
Do you know when this feature will be available ?
Thanks !
Thank you! There are still the final steps to be checked, but I think I can start the roll-out in October 2023. However, the European banks will be offered step by step first. Please note that banks outside of Europe will take longer, as the requirements for licensing must first be checked. Cheers, Tom
Thanks for your answer ! I’m in Europe, so it’s perfect ahaha !
Hi Tom, when will this be available? WIll Swiss Banks such as ZKB be available?
Hello Alex, I will try to publish the new release the next days. Swiss banks will be not supported in the first release, but I will try to add further banks later. In the first step only European banks will be possible to connect under the frame of the Eruopean PSD2-regulations. Regards, Tom
Hi Tom, this is great news! I have some slight concerns regarding privacy however. Is this something that is taken care of? And if so, how?
Thank you!
Hello Robert, of course, I have looked into the topic intensively and the new app version also includes a new data privacy declaration with detailed information. My data supplier “GoCardless” for the bank connection is also PSD2 data protection compliant and data is only transmitted in encrypted form. Therefore, initially only European banks that meet European security standards will be supported. Regards, Tom
Hi Tom, I purchased the monthly subscription to manage 3 bank accounts listed in your app. However, when I try to link accounts, I get the message that the feature is coming soon. So it seems like I spent money without actually being able to enjoy what I purchased. By the way, one of the accounts I tried to connect was PayPal, while the others are Europe-specific banks.
Can you clarify? Thanks for your time!
Hello Cosmo, thank you for your interest in my app! Below the subscription models you can check if your banks are already supported. I don’t know which banks from which countries you try to connect, but more European countries will follow soon. Please contact me directly for more details (feedback@ttdeveloped.com). I apologize for the inconvenience caused! Regards, Tom
Hi, please add bpm webank italy asap!!
Hello, Italian banks are not yet supported in the current update (7.01). But I will add more EU member states such as Italy in the coming weeks. Best regards, Tom
Hello Tom,
Will this function work with Mexican banks?
Thanks.
Hello,
Thank you for your interest in MoneyStats!
So far only European banks are supported. In any case, I will try to offer more banks from other countries in the future, but this will probably take some time!
If you have any further questions or suggestions for improvement, please contact me.
Best regards
Tom
Hi Tom
Any news about Italian banks?
Best regards
Marco
Hello Marco, so far only European banks are supported, which are compliant to PSD2 data regulations. Otherwise, not all countries have been activated yet. This will only happen in the coming weeks after the first test phases have been completed. The Italian banks will be activated immediately after Christmas in the new update. Greetings, Tom
Believe it or not, I still use Microsoft’s Money Express 2000 on one PC every day. This is of course separate from the internet and only works on an older OS. One of the best I know so far and still use every day. Unfortunately, we were not able to link this to our bank in Europe (Belgium) and also that Microsoft has not rolled it out further… I have this Pro version of Money Stats and I also find it super fun and easy, but I am also waiting when transactions can be automated linked to your bank account…
You can now also connect bank accounts with my app! So far, only European banks that are compliant with PSD2 data protection regulations are supported. However, I will try to offer other countries in the future, but this will probably take some time! Currently only payment accounts are available for API access to the bank. Other account types such as savings accounts or securities accounts cannot be accessed due to the PSD2 data protection regulations. Regards, Tom
Where can I see the list of European banks to check if my bank can be linked to this app. If it’s not yet supported I won’t buy an app because I know for sure I won’t do anything manually.
Hello Yan, in the Apple App Store I also offer a free version of my app, where you can check it out and also see the supported banks in the menu of the In-App-Purchases (under the section of the subscription models). So far, only European banks that are compliant with PSD2 data protection regulations are supported. However, I will try to offer other countries in the future, but this will probably take some time! Also note, currently only payment accounts are available for API access to the bank. Other account types such as savings accounts or securities accounts cannot be accessed due to the PSD2 data protection regulations. Regards, Tom
Hi, any estimate on when the app is gonna start offering integration with UK banks (HSBC, Amex)? I really love the app but without these it would be hard to manage my transactions 🙁
Thanks
Hello, so far, only European banks that comply with the PSD2 data protection regulations are supported. However, I will try to offer other countries in the future, but this will probably take some time! For API access to the bank, only payment accounts are currently available. Other account types such as savings accounts or securities accounts cannot be accessed due to the PSD2 data protection regulations. Since for the UK I need to have an additional licence, this will at least take another 6 month until I am allowed to make use of API access. If you have any further questions or suggestions for improvement, just contact me. Best regards, Tom
