Is Billroo Safe? π
We know security is one of the first things people think about when connecting their bank accounts to a budgeting app. The good news? Billroo is built with security and privacy at its core.
β Government-backed Open Banking
Billroo uses Open Banking, which is part of Australiaβs Consumer Data Right (CDR) framework. This means:
You never share your bank login or password with Billroo.
Your bank gives Billroo read-only access to your transactions through secure APIs.
You can disconnect access anytime from within your account.
π Our Data Partner: Fiskil
We partner with Fiskil, an accredited Open Banking provider. Fiskil complies with strict CDR laws, which are some of the toughest privacy and data protection standards in Australia.
