Yes, it’s completely safe to share your financial data with Pulse through Open Banking and Open Accounting. We are GDPR compliant and follow stringent security protocols to ensure that your data is protected at all times. You’ll only ever provide us third-party access to your data, which means we’re only able to view your data and we can’t take any action on your account.

In terms of access, we follow the practised and proven principles of open-source accounting, which means that you’ll only ever grant us third-party access to your data. This allows us to provide you with crucial accounting insights, cash flow analysis, and balance sheet overviews but restricts us from taking any actions.

We prioritise the safe handling of your business auditing and financial auditing data at all times, and should you decide, you can revoke Pulse’s access to your data at any stage.

Open Banking was rolled out in the UK back in 2018 and it transformed the way businesses and consumers, just like you, share your data – and as a result, you have a multitude of financial products at your disposal, with rates and other benefits you wouldn’t get without being able to share your data.

Don’t worry though… Open Banking is completely safe, as you only ever provide third-party access. Once you grant us permission to view your data, we can’t change it or take any action on your account. We’re simply able to view your data and use that information to provide the game-changing insights we do.

Open Accounting and Open Banking work perfectly together to enable us to provide businesses like yours with actionable, game-changing insights that can help transform the way you run your business.

Similarly to Open Banking, you grant third-party access to your accounting package provider and the rest is history! It’s totally safe and you can revoke access at any time – though if you do, we won’t be able to continue providing insights. Alongside Open Banking, with Open Accounting, we’re able to see a 360 view of your business data. We then break down the valuable data within your business and translate it into a way that makes sense to you, with suggestions on what’s working, what isn’t and how you can improve…
