Open Banking is transforming how Kiwis interact with their finances. But what exactly is it, and why should you care?
What is Open Banking?
Open Banking is a secure way for you to share your financial data with trusted third-party apps like MoneyWise. Instead of giving away your login credentials, you authorise specific, read-only access through your bank.
How It Works
- You choose to connect your account in MoneyWise
- Your bank asks you to confirm the connection
- MoneyWise receives read-only access to your balance data
- Revoke access anytime through your bank
Security First
- We never see your banking passwords
- All connections are encrypted end-to-end
- Read-only access means we can never move your money
- Fully compliant with NZ data protection laws
The Future
As more NZ banks adopt Open Banking standards, connecting your accounts will become even easier. We're working with major NZ banks to bring seamless integration to MoneyWise.
