Faster, more reliable data feeds with open banking are here

What is the distinction between transactions and statements? I suspect this is semantics.

That would be the data provider. In any event, this is far less access than you’re currently giving.

it’s a citi thing, not a card thing. i did the upgrade once from the console and that was it. did my two citi bank accounts, my citi mastercard and my citi costco visa - all together as one. the only difference i can see is that updating from the console is a hair faster.

@dave007 we do not define nor have control over the scopes of what is accessed, this is between Citi and our data provider, Yodlee. More than likely the previous connection method already had access to the Statements so this is probably not new. What is new is that you have more insight into exactly what’s being accessed.

@aronos, the Citi sites/cards that this is available for are listed here: Known Data Feed Issues & Workarounds

Thanks @heather. I saw that and at this point I’m assuming “Citi Credit Cards” means Citi branded cards, rather than all cards serviced by Citi.

I have 4 cards that are serviced by Citi but aren’t branded as Citi cards. They all show up in their own sections on the Tiller console so they seem to be handled differently.

Is there any news regarding UK banks that support open banking since more than a year now :slight_smile: I am still waiting for my sheets to wake up from their dormant state.

This is exciting news! Innovation takes time with banks and at least its in progress for open banking. I’m hoping for great things in the future. I believe Capital One works this way (at least with Mint login going directly through Capital One website).

Capital One has had a developer api for a long time but I don’t think Yodlee uses it, which is frustrating and annoying. They may have been waiting for the Open Banking started to be adopted.

Statements contain far more data than simple transactions, which are all you need for Sheets to do its job. A list of transactions does not contain name, address, late/missed payment data, complete account number (see Chase statements), or anything else the company decides to include.

And yes, obviously I know it’s less access, but that doesn’t make the alternative correct.

The previous connection method had access to everything because it could just scrape everything. OAuth should be giving the power to the end user to determine which data they would like to release. Sheets needs a list of transactions, and perhaps current balance. No more, no less.

@emreoztimur no news on the EU/UK front. We’re still not officially registered in the EU/UK so we still can’t offer automated feeds to those banks at this time.

We’ve added Chase to the list today ! :tada:

Me too! I’m looking forward to additional open banking conversions in the future.

Hi @heather. I am having trouble with Schwab and tried a private browsing session and received this error: Screen Shot 2021-04-09 at 6.23.36 PM

Hi @hintz.jeffrey

I’d recommend reaching out to our support team via the chat window in the lower right corner of the Console at https://sheets.tillerhq.com/auth/google

Is there any sort of open banking white paper or advocacy group that I could utilize to help make the case to my credit union that they should adopt open banking standards/practices?

That’s a great idea, @Nic.Bab. I found this in a quick search and thought it was pretty good.

I like your approach: if your bank isn’t the bank you want, convince them to be better.
