Redbark connects Australian bank accounts to Sure through the Consumer Data Right (CDR) open banking framework. Data flows one way, from your banks into Sure, using read-only consented access. Your bank credentials are never shared with Redbark or Sure.

How it works

  1. You connect your banks in Redbark through each bank’s official consent flow
  2. You create a Redbark API key and paste it into Sure
  3. Sure pulls your accounts, balances, and transactions from the Redbark API
  4. Syncs run automatically to keep your data current

Setting up Redbark

API access requires a Redbark Developer or Professional plan. It is not available on the Saver plan.
  1. Sign up at app.redbark.com and connect your bank accounts
  2. In Redbark, go to Settings > API Keys and create a new key (it is only shown once)
  3. In Sure, go to Settings > Providers, find the Redbark panel, and paste the key
  4. Link each bank account to an existing Sure account or create a new one from it

Features

Account syncing

  • Account listing: All connected bank accounts with institution names and logos
  • Balances: Current balances fetched from your bank on every sync
  • Transaction history: The first sync pulls 90 days of history (or from a start date you choose); later syncs are incremental with a 7 day lookback
  • Deduplication: Transactions are deduplicated by their Redbark transaction id, so re-syncing never creates duplicates

Pending transactions

Only posted transactions are imported by default. To also import pending transactions, set this in your Sure environment:
When a pending transaction settles, the posted version replaces it automatically.

Limitations

  • Australian institutions only (banks under the CDR regime)
  • Banking accounts only; brokerage accounts connected to Redbark are not imported
  • Data is read-only; Sure never writes anything back to your banks

Troubleshooting

Connection requires update: your API key was revoked or expired. Create a new key in Redbark and update it in the Sure provider panel. An account is missing: check the account’s consent is still active in Redbark under Settings > Consents, and note that brokerage accounts are not synced.
