Feature 01 / Banking & Investment Automation

Banking & investment automation.

Vardon connects your bank and brokerage accounts so you can track transactions and investments together. Automatic bank imports can use your saved payment choices to reduce repeat entry.

You choose what syncs through read-only connections.

    Choose a supported bank or brokerage and approve the account access requested by its connection provider.

  2. 02 / Configure

    Choose your sync settings

    Turn bank sync and automatic imports on or off for each account. Choose a Vardon card for spending imports.

01 / Automatic bank sync

02 / Transaction mapping & reconciliation

Save your choices for matching payments

When you review a bank payment, you can save your choices as a mapping. With automatic import enabled, matching payments can use that mapping to go into your ledger.

Other activity appears in Reconciliation. Check the pre-filled details before adding it to your ledger. You can pause or delete saved mappings at any time.

Questions about banking automation

Read the documentation

What is banking and investment automation in Vardon?

Vardon automates parts of your financial record keeping. It can sync connected bank accounts and import transactions using saved mappings. It also brings brokerage holdings and activity into the same workspace.

Does Vardon import every bank transaction automatically?

No. You can turn on automatic imports separately from bank sync. Matching payments can use saved mappings, while activity that needs your input goes to Reconciliation for review before you add it to the ledger.

Will Vardon buy or sell investments for me?

No. Vardon uses read-only brokerage connections to sync holdings and activity for tracking and record keeping. It cannot place trades.

Which banks and brokerages can I connect?

The supported banks and brokerages are listed in Vardon. What you can connect depends on the institution, its provider and the connection available. Check Connection Status for current information.

How often does my bank account sync?

Sync timing and availability depend on your bank connection. Vardon shows each account’s next scheduled sync. In Settings, you can check the last successful sync and change your automatic sync preferences.

Can I turn off imports or disconnect an account?

Yes. Each bank account has separate controls for automatic sync and imports. You can pause or delete saved mappings and disconnect accounts in Settings. If bank consent expires, you can reconnect there too.
