The above image shows the dashboard overview, which provides more clarity at a glance.
Akoni is using Moneyhub’s Intelligence & Data API, the most comprehensive in the market, to securely access consent driven financial data. Users can connect multiple banking accounts in the platform and preview their balance and transactions on these accounts through Moneyhub. This holistic view of their or their client’s finances enables better financial decisions and cash management.
Moneyhub’s actionable insight Nudges make decisions even easier. Nudges are alerts which prompt the user when savings can be made once Akoni has compared interest rates and returns of savings products across the market. Using this type of data and insight means that Akoni’s platform can facilitate returns of up to 10x more interest on a business’ cash within the firm’s risk requirements.
Businesses can use the platform directly with AkoniHub while wealth managers, investment platforms, advisers and other partners can provide savings solutions and cash tools to their clients through the white-labelled platform.
Utilising Moneyhub’s Open Finance APIs and Insight Nudges also allows Akoni to provide a smoother and more engaging user experience, creating deeper and more robust customer relationships.
Moneyhub’s secure platform is built to consume and provide APIs. Coupled with the team’s in-depth knowledge of Open Banking, it provides a seamless solution for compliance with regulatory standards and is the only comprehensive Open Finance data aggregation in the market bringing together pensions, loans, investments, mortgages, savings, property and of course bank accounts. Moneyhub also initiates account to account payments and supports banks to become fully PSD2 compliant in less than 30 days.
