How to link a bank account?
To add an account, you need access to your bank's online or mobile banking. After choosing a bank, you access authentication on the bank's page through the GoCardless interface. The method of granting consent for the transfer of bank account information varies from bank to bank. The usual way is through authorization tokens, while some banks use certificates to access their online banking.

What happens during the first connection?
FIRA downloads the balance and bank transactions for the previous 30 days, and during subsequent downloads it backfills the data as far as possible, usually up to 90 days. Status and traffic are updated with each subsequent data download, four times a day, at 8:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m., 2:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m.

The cash flow of your bank accounts
FIRA generates a monthly overview of deposits and withdrawals for all linked accounts. Your cash flow is displayed on the home page, allowing you to see monthly inflows and outflows throughout the current year. All transaction details are visible similarly to your Bank's online banking, and if necessary, you can download a .csv document with your bank account transactions.

Automated invoice collection tracking
FIRA compares traffic with unpaid invoices and notifies you when an invoice has been paid. In order to recognize the payment, it is necessary that the reference number is identical to the one on the offer or invoice you issued. So you always have accurate information about the status of your issued invoices.
