What's the difference between Connected and NoFrixion Accounts?
A NoFrixion Account is an account opened directly within the NoFrixion platform.
A Connected Account is your existing external business bank account (for example, Bank of Ireland or AIB) that you securely link to NoFrixion using Open Banking.
What is a NoFrixion Account?
A NoFrixion Account is:
- Regulated like a bank account
- Created instantly within the platform
- Used to hold, send and receive funds
- Fully operational inside NoFrixion
This is where your money is managed within the platform.
What is a Connected Account?
A Connected Account is:
- Your existing external business bank account
- Securely linked using Open Banking
- View-only access (balances and transactions)
NoFrixion cannot move funds from a connected account unless you explicitly use a payment initiation feature, like our payment requests.
The purpose of a connected account is to give you visibility, not custody.
Simple way to think about it
NoFrixion Account = An account you open and operate within NoFrixion
Connected Account = An external bank account you link for visibility
