Getting started is easy! Sign up for the free plan (no card, and nothing expires), connect your financial accounts using our secure integration, and you'll immediately see your complete financial picture. Our onboarding wizard will guide you through setting up budgets and goals.

Koney supports over 10,000 financial institutions including banks, credit unions, investment accounts, cryptocurrency exchanges, credit cards, loans, and more. We use Plaid for secure bank connections, ensuring your credentials are never stored on our servers.

Absolutely! You can import transactions via CSV from virtually any financial institution or other finance apps. We also support importing from popular apps like Mint, YNAB, and Personal Capital if you're switching from another service.

Self-Hosting & Technical

Koney has a self-hosted mode. Billing is disabled there and all features are unlocked. Contact us for the current setup information.

The self-hosted version runs in Docker and requires: 2GB RAM minimum (4GB recommended), PostgreSQL database, and optionally Redis for caching. We provide detailed setup documentation and Docker Compose files.

Yes! We offer a REST API for developers who want to integrate Koney data into their own applications or build custom workflows. API documentation is available in our developer portal.

Account data is automatically synced multiple times per day. You can also trigger a manual sync at any time. Some institutions may have delays based on their data availability, but most accounts update within hours.

Troubleshooting

First, ensure you're using the correct credentials for your bank's online banking (not your debit card PIN). Some banks require you to enable third-party access in their settings. If issues persist, try reconnecting or contact our support team.

Transactions typically appear within 24-48 hours of clearing with your bank. Pending transactions may take longer. If transactions are consistently missing, try refreshing the connection or contact support for assistance.

Try clearing your browser cache, using a supported browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge), and ensuring you have a stable internet connection. If viewing many accounts, the initial load may take a moment to aggregate all data.

You can reach our support team via email at hello@koney.money, through the in-app chat (click the help icon), or by visiting our community forum. Premium subscribers get priority support with faster response times.
