Ask HN: How do Swipely and Blippy get their data?
I couldn't find this online, but was wondering how they were going about pulling people's purchases?
I doubt all or any banks have apis. Are they then simply scraping data by using the customers log-in info?
- pascalchristian 16y agoProbably the similar to how Mint and inDinero works; they use a third party service (such as Yodlee) which provide aggregation of financial data. There was a thread about this: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1537825 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1537825
