FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How often does Isbank sync to Actual Budget?
Synci polls Isbank for new data every 30 to 360 minutes, depending on your plan. Some banks may not support high-frequency sync (30 min). When new transactions or balance changes are found, they are transferred to Actual Budget within seconds.
Does Isbank support pending transactions?
Isbank may not expose pending transactions through PSD2. Booked transactions are always supported, and are typically available within a day of being processed by the bank.
Are Isbank credit card accounts supported?
Isbank may not expose credit card accounts through PSD2. If yours does, you'll see them listed when you connect.
Is my Isbank login shared with Synci?
No. Synci connects to Isbank through regulated PSD2 APIs, which means authentication happens on Isbank's own login flow. Your bank login credentials are never shared with or stored by Synci.
Which provider does Synci use to connect to Isbank?
Synci currently connects to Isbank through GoCardless, a regulated PSD2 data provider. Providers handle the technical connection to the bank — your login credentials stay between you and Isbank.
