Connect Money to the financial accounts you already use. Each one adds a different part of your cash picture, and they all belong to the business, so your team sees the same numbers.

Link your bank for your cash balance

In the Cash pipeline, click Connect bank. The link is read-only and goes securely through Stripe. Once it's linked, Money shows your balance as Money in the bank, with when it was last checked. This is your main cash figure.

Connect QuickBooks for your books

Click Connect QuickBooks or the QuickBooks pill under Connections. Aventide asks whether you already have a QuickBooks account, then opens QuickBooks so you can sign in. Money brings in your QuickBooks customers, invoices and payments, and syncs about every 15 minutes. QuickBooks Undeposited Funds and deposits show in the Cash pipeline, and you can send invoices through QuickBooks.

Connect Stripe for card payments

Connect the Stripe account that collects your customer payments, or let Stripe set up a new one. Money then shows money Stripe is holding under Pending deposit, and payouts that reached your bank under Deposited. Stripe money is never counted as your bank balance.

Use them together

Connect more than one for a fuller picture. Your bank is the cash you have, QuickBooks keeps your books in step, and Stripe shows card payments on their way to you. When both Stripe and QuickBooks are connected, choose which one sends new invoices under Send invoices with.

If you disconnect one, its records stay stored but drop out of your Money totals.
