Connect a bank account

Before you start

Skileo connects to banks in 31 European countries. You give your consent on your bank’s own page: Skileo never sees your bank password. Skileo only reads your accounts, their balance and their transactions. It can’t make payments.

Connect your bank

1. Open Bank in the menu of Accounting, then Accounts.
2. Click Add new, then Connect bank account.
3. Choose your Country.
4. If the Bank field shows, choose your bank. In some countries, you choose it later, on the next page.
5. Choose the Period: how far back to fetch transactions. The choice depends on your country and your bank, from 30 days up to 12 months.
6. Click Connect bank account. Your bank’s page, or a secure page where you choose your bank, opens.
7. Sign in to your bank there and give your consent.
8. You come back to Bank accounts. If the window Connect Bank accounts opens, tick the accounts to connect and click Connect selected bank accounts.

Skileo adds the accounts and gets their transactions at once. Then see them in Transactions.

If the message This bank does not allow any history window. Please choose another bank. shows, choose another bank.

When the connection ends

Your consent lasts a limited time, set by your bank. After that, the account shows Connection expired on: in red, and its menu offers Reconnect instead of Sync.

1. Click Reconnect in the account’s menu.
2. Give your consent again on your bank’s page.
3. Back in Skileo, if the window Connect Bank accounts opens, check that your accounts are ticked and click Connect selected bank accounts.

Skileo doesn’t remind you before a connection ends: watch the Connected until: date.
