How deezbills keeps account records useful without bank sync

No bank login, with practical ways to maintain the records

deezbills does not connect to a bank feed and never asks for your bank login. Your banking credentials are not collected or shared through a bank-sync connection. Instead, you can use receipts, statements, screenshots, direct entries, financial email forwarding and optional Gmail support.

The aim is less repeated work while keeping you in control of the information you share. This does not remove the need for accurate source information. Your recorded balance is not a live balance read from your bank.

Start from a document when the fields are unfamiliar

Upload a supported statement or loan document to extract the details available in it. Review the extracted information, fill in anything missing and confirm the settings before saving. A document can make setup easier without requiring you to know every field in advance.

You can also choose Get started with Fred. He asks about your situation and can help set up accounts, income, a personalized budget and recurring expenses with your approval. Begin with what you know and continue at your own pace.

Savings interest can be calculated from your records

For a supported savings account, add the balance and interest rate. deezbills calculates interest using the recorded deposits and withdrawals, reducing the need to work it out and add it by hand.

The calculation depends on the rate, dates, transactions and supported account settings. Compare the record with the statement, especially when a bank posts an adjustment, changes a rate or uses terms not represented by the setup. A calculated amount is not a confirmation of what the bank has actually credited.

Loan records can update when you record payments

For a supported mortgage, loan or credit line, recording a payment updates what you owe in deezbills, accounting for interest. This helps you follow progress without recalculating the balance after each payment.

Recording and making a payment are different actions. The feature does not send money or assume that a scheduled payment has happened. Check the actual payment and keep the account terms and recorded transactions current.

Supported variable rates can follow prime-rate changes

If a supported loan is tied to a supported bank or institution’s prime rate, deezbills can pick up prime-rate changes and update the recorded rate. That reduces repeated manual rate entry.

Confirm that your institution, rate arrangement and account settings are supported. A tracked reference rate does not replace your lender’s documents or establish that every loan term is covered. Manual balance management remains available.

Statements help find what your spending records missed

Upload a statement and compare its purchases with the expenses already recorded. Review missing purchases before adding them, and correct expense details in the same view. This is especially useful when some purchases arrived through Gmail, others came from receipt photos and some were entered directly.

Check amounts, dates and categories against the statement. A receipt and a statement can describe the same purchase, so review whether an entry is already present. Categorization learns from corrections, helping reduce repeated sorting without promising that every guess will be correct.

Optional Gmail gives Fred another source to work with

You can enable expense detection and capture from financial emails, or type @ in Fred’s chat, choose your connected Gmail account and ask him to find and read the relevant message. Supported attachments can provide more context.

The Gmail plugin is optional and read-only. Fred cannot use it to send, edit or archive email. You can upload documents directly without enabling the plugin. Google Drive is coming soon.

How account records support planning

Once the records are useful, ask Fred something that matters: what changed this month, what you can save, or how a purchase would affect the next payday. He works with the finances saved in deezbills, asks for missing context, researches relevant details and helps compare options. Supported changes to the records and plans require your approval.

Cash-flow and goal contribution estimates connect the recorded information to expected income, bills, existing savings and a cash buffer. Treat these as estimates based on current inputs. Money expected later is not money already received.

You can mark an account closed in deezbills while keeping its history, and reopen the record if needed. This manages the record; it does not close or reopen an account at a bank.
