We focus on what matters to grow your business. And as you grow, we add new apps that evolve with your growth, making your path to business continuity or expansion smooth.

With Bank feeds, you can import your data, review transactions, and connect them to invoices and bills.

The Bank feeds service is available to US, Canada, EU, and UK users.

Please note that the Connect Bank Account feature is only available on Premium Cloud, not for self-hosted installations.

Double-Entry with General Ledger, Balance Sheet, Chart of Accounts, Trial Balance, and more
