Bank Connection

Different banks will provide different levels of services. When you initiate a bank connection, the Sway application will let you know which services are specifically available for that provider.

Here is the list of key features that can be provided by banks in the Sway App:

• Consent Management: Grant access to your accounts directly via your bank. You will need to authenticate, usually with the usual bank identification application, and follow a process defined by your bank. You can then choose to revoke this consent at anytime from your bank and/or from Sway, to stop the connection.
• Multiple consents: The bank can be connected to several workspaces simultaneously. This is particularly useful if you have many accounts under one single contract and wish to split these into different workspaces for different users or teams, with different authorisation levels.
• Payment submission: Submit payment drafts to be signed-off in the e-banking. For instance, let a collaborator orchestrate all your payments in a single place via Sway (e.g. scanning QR invoices), sending them to the right bank in a few taps, then letting an authorised e-banking user sign them off.
• Payment initiation: Initiate payments for execution directly from Sway, while keeping it secure with an identification and approval process.
• Cash Management export (camt053): Export camt053 files generated by all your compatible banks, in one single tap, directly from Sway. You can then import these files in your accounting solution (such as Xero, Bexio, Cresus or Winbiz) for instance. Save the time of having to sign in the different e-bankings, finding the right place, the right file type, etc.

Note that many more features such as CSV export in Xero or Quickbooks format, collaborator management, transaction checks and so on, are available, independently of what the connected bank offers.

The aggregated balance is the sum of the amount of money that you currently have on your bank accounts connected with Sway. For instance, if you have one account with CHF 15’000.- and another one with with CHF 5’000.- your aggregated balance will be CHF 20’000.-. Your aggregated balance can be found on the top of your Dashboard.

A revoked consent means that the connection from your bank account to Sway was cancelled. This might happen if you or someone else decided to remove the connection (either within the Sway App, or from the e-banking directly). It’s also possible that the consent you had granted had ran out of validity. In any case you can always reconnect your account by adding it again from the Sway App, and all your data will be available again in no time. If you believe this is a mistake or need any assistance, please reach out to us via our contact form: https://www.swayapp.io/contact

When a consent is revoked (from the Sway app or from your eBanking for instance), connection to the related accounts is removed too. You may however still chose to display this account's data, in the workspace settings. If you do chose to display a disconnected account, the app shows a warning to inform you and potential collaborators, that the aggregated balance and its history, may not be up to date. It consists of a textual warning on the dashboard, as well as an icon near the account logo, in other screens. If you disable the account display, the warning will disappear as well.
