The Belgian finance automation platform Ponto announces its integration to Zapier today.
Ponto, an Isabel Group solution, allows its users to connect their bank accounts from more than 150 European banks to all the SaaS (Software as a service) platform available in Zapier. With this integration to a leading platform such as Zapier, the Open Banking and PSD2-enabled aggregation solution reaches a new milestone.
Ponto allows companies of all sizes to push bank account information into their finance and back-office software via APIs (Application programming Interface). Organizations can enter this banking data at any point in their financial processes, offering them a personalized accounting and banking experience.
With Ponto, businesses can automate their flow in many ways via different features, such as the reconciliation of invoices in their accounting software or ERP for instance. Thanks to the integration with Zapier, another 2,000 apps are added for businesses to experiment with. They can now build a centralized dashboard of bank accounts or create a personalized alerting flow themselves.
“We built Ponto with business process automation in mind,” says Marc Lainez, VP Ibanity at Isabel Group, the company behind the Ponto solution. “We wanted to create a way for businesses to decide which software can access which bank account and more. That is exactly what Ponto does: it allows you to connect your bank account to the software you are already comfortable with. At any given time, Ponto customers can manage those consents, revoke them and trigger a Strong Customer Authentication flow whenever needed. Furthermore, this integration to Zapier will unleash the true potential of PSD2 account information and finally offer organizations the flexibility they have longed for during the past decade.”
Open banking meets workflow automation
Ponto is an Isabel Group solution licensed by the National Bank of Belgium in 2019 and serves customers such as Teamleader (BE), Odoo (BE) and MoneyBird (NL). The platform takes care of all the registration and technical connections to banks and bridges the gap between business bank accounts and back-office systems, such as ERP, invoicing, accounting or financial applications.
Founded in 2011, Zapier helps customers grow their businesses with the power of automation. The company connects over 2,000 apps to help people be more productive at work.
