Yodlee, one of our third party connectors, can help you get your expenses automatically imported from your bank accounts, credit cards, and PayPal accounts (Crypto, Investment, Loan and Line of Credit accounts will not be imported). These transactions are imported into your account through a mix of data sharing methods like Open Banking and data extraction depending on the financial institution.
All accounts you set up will appear in the Bank Connections section, and any newly imported expenses (up to 30-90 days of activity) will appear in the Expenses section for you.

Automatically Categorize Imported Expenses
If you have a lot of Expenses that are consistently importing in that belong to the same category, you can mark them to automatically apply the category for you next time. This requires that the Expense is imported in with the exact same Merchant name every time for it to be automatically categorized. Use the below steps:
- Go to the Expenses section
- Click on the pencil icon on the right side of the Expense you want to edit
- If the Expense does not have a category yet, click on Choose a category and pick one
- If the Merchant is not filled out, click on Add Merchant and type in a new Merchant or choose from an existing list
- Check the box off next to Apply to future imported expenses
- Click Save to finish.
