If you have more than one login or credentials for an existing Akahu feed, you can authorise Akahu to access the new accounts via the existing connection already added in PocketSmith.
You will need to follow these steps if you want to connect your partner's accounts at the same bank, your business accounts, or any other accounts you have at the same bank with different logins.
Adding more than one set of credentials (or online banking logins) to an Open Banking Akahu feed
- Go to the Feeds (Manage > Feeds) page.
- Go to the Authorize tab for the feed, then select Authorize (or Reauthorize).
- Verify that the email you initially used with Akahu is correct, then press Continue. (If the email associated with Akahu is incorrect, select Use a different email address).
- If prompted, enter your login credentials and the OTP sent to you via email.
- If you are with ANZ you will also be prompted to scan a QR code before continuing the consent flow.
- Select + Add another connection.
Note: ANZ bank-specific information If you’re prompted to scan a QR code, you need to use the main credit card account holder's mobile device's camera or QR scanner, then open the link in your device's default web browser to continue. Please note that this step will not work if the QR code is scanned with the ANZ GoMoney app.
Adding more than one set of credentials (or online banking logins) to a classic Akahu feed
- Head to the Feeds page (Manage > Feeds)
- Click on your feed in the sidebar and select the Authorize tab
- Click REAUTHORISE
- You will then be taken to the Akahu Connect interface pop-up window. Follow through the Akahu verification process until you reach the screen with your accounts listed.
Note
When you are adding the second credentials, when Akahu asks you to Verify your email, it is important that you enter the same email address you did for your first set of credentials. We recommend using the email address associated with your PocketSmith user account.
- Click + Add another connection.
- Enter your extra set of credentials, and click CONTINUE. Follow the prompts to add these credentials to your Akahu.
- When you have added your second credentials, all of your bank accounts will be listed. The accounts you previously connected will already be selected, but the ones you've just added will not be selected.
Tick all new accounts you'd like to make available to PocketSmith. You may need to scroll down to access them all.
Then, select Connect from the bottom of the screen.
- Once you're back in PocketSmith and the Connection is synced, those accounts will appear within the Unlinked Accounts section on the Connection, ready to link up! Find more steps for this here: Steps to link a feed to an account.
