4. Give Consent for a Bank Feed, Jiwa
This article describes how to give consent for a direct bank feed. The majority of banks require a Customer Authority Form (CAF) to be created, printed and signed with blue or black pen, before sending it to us for processing. Digital signatures will not be accepted.
Transactions are supplied from the date of approval, or when the feed status becomes Active. Historical transactions are not made available. You can begin to import transactions once the Feed Status is Active.
