Securely Integrate Común Account, Transfer, and Balance Data into Your Systems

We provide specialized protocol analysis for the Común app, enabling programmatic access to account balances, transaction histories, and remittance details. All integrations follow Open Banking principles and authorized data extraction standards, supporting use cases from personal finance aggregation to compliance auditing.

Account Authentication API — Simulate the Común app login flow with OAuth/Token validation. Securely bind user accounts and refresh session tokens for continuous data access, mirroring standard Plaid or Open Banking flows.
Transaction History Sync — Extract detailed transaction records including US domestic transfers and international remittances (via UniTeller). Support for pagination, date filtering, and exporting to JSON or Excel formats.
Balance & Account Verification — Retrieve real-time available balances and routing/account numbers issued by Community Federal Savings Bank (CFSB). Useful for loan origination underwriting or secondary account linking.
Remittance Tracking Data — Query the status of international money transfers to Latin America. Extract exchange rates applied, recipient details, and exact delivery timestamps.

Typical Integration Scenarios

Personal Finance Management (PFM): Sync Común account balances and debit card transactions into third-party budgeting apps. Utilizes the authentication and transaction history APIs to provide users a holistic view of their finances.
Lending Underwriting & Risk Assessment: Access historical transaction data to verify income (e.g., direct deposits arriving up to 2 days early) and assess spending habits for loan approvals, replacing manual bank statement uploads.
Accounting & ERP Synchronization: Automatically export monthly statements and cross-border payment records (via UniTeller) into enterprise accounting software like QuickBooks or Xero, facilitating seamless reconciliation.
Compliance & Audit Reporting: Programmatically retrieve detailed remittance logs, including exchange rates and destination countries, to satisfy regulatory reporting and anti-money laundering (AML) internal audits.

Compliance & Privacy

Our integration methods strictly adhere to authorized access principles. We design solutions that respect user consent and align with modern financial data privacy standards.

For US operations, our architecture supports compliance with the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) regarding the protection of nonpublic personal information (NPI), and respects the data handling practices outlined by Común’s banking partner, Community Federal Savings Bank (CFSB).

Data Flow Architecture

A standardized, secure pipeline for extracting and processing Común app data:

  1. Client Authorization: User securely provides credentials or OAuth consent.
  2. API Gateway: Our integration layer handles session tokens and rate limits.
  3. Data Extraction: Programmatic requests fetch balances, transactions, or remittance logs.
  4. Transformation: Raw JSON is converted into standardized Open Banking formats or custom DB schemas.
