Connect your bank account

The bank connection imports your account’s transactions into Kadrella, so each transfer received can be linked to a student payment. It goes through GoCardless, a secure bank connection service: you sign in on your bank’s own site and your login is never passed to Kadrella. This integration is part of the Pro plan.

  2. Step 2

    Choose your bank and authorise access

    Choose the country, search for your bank and click it. You are sent to your bank’s site: sign in as usual and accept sharing your transactions. The bank then sends you back to Kadrella, which confirms the connection.

  3. Step 3

    Your account is connected

    The account shows with the "Active" status, the connection date and the last sync. The sync switch pauses importing an account without disconnecting it.

  4. Step 4

    The imported transactions

    Each movement shows with its date, amount, bank label and the holder of the account that paid. The "Reconciled" column tells whether it is already linked to a payment. To link a transfer to a student, follow the "Record a payment for a lesson" guide.

    Good to know

    • Once a transfer is linked to a student, the family’s IBAN is saved on their record, and their next transfers create a payment by themselves.

Good to know

  • Transactions are imported automatically, twice a day: no need to start a sync by hand.
