About Flinks
Flinks is a Montreal fintech company founded in 2016. It securely connects bank accounts to apps, so services for lending, payments and account checks can access financial data with the customer's permission. When you link a bank account to a budgeting app or loan application, a company like Flinks often works behind the scenes.
Flinks mainly serves banks, lenders and financial apps rather than individual shoppers. It is a name worth knowing if you work in finance or tech, or if you are curious about how open banking works. For everyone, it is a reminder to read permissions before linking your accounts. The company is part of Montreal's fintech scene.
