HOW TO CONNECT (OR DISCONNECT) BANK FEEDS

What is a bank feed?

A bank feed, also known as a data feed, links your business transaction account with your business accounting software.

Why set up a bank feed?

Bank feeds could save you time on manual data entry and reconciliations and help to provide better visibility and control over your finances.

What accounts can I connect to bank feeds?

You can connect any eligible business or personal account*, including all transaction accounts and saving accounts. Please note, this does not include joint accounts or credit cards. If you’d like to connect your credit card transactions in Online Banking, you can export a list. Learn more on exporting transactions.

How do I connect a bank feed?

Before you can connect your accounts in Online Banking, you’ll need to set up a bank feed with your online accounting or third-party software provider. Contact your provider to find out how.

 

Once you have established a link to your preferred third-party, follow the steps below:

 

  1. Sign into Online Banking from a desktop
  2. Select Service
  3. In the Account service section, select Bank feeds
  4. Select an account (or multiple accounts), then select your pre-connected accounting provider under To third party service provider 
  5. Select Connect feed.

 

Note: If you are changing your third-party service provider or a User’s access levels, you will need to disconnect your current bank feed before proceeding.
