  1. AmBank Group Malaysia (including AmBank Islamic) currently has no direct bank feed integration with Xero. Malaysian SMEs using AmBank must manually export and upload CSV statements, which is inefficient and error-prone. We request Xero to establish a direct API-enabled bank feed with AmBank, similar to the existing CIMB and RHB Malaysia integrations. This would greatly benefit Malaysian businesses and support Xero's growing presence in Malaysia.

  2. Before triggering direct advice to the bank to disconnect a bank feed(s), send a warning to the Xero Administrator that outlines the impending course of action in an attempt to stop an unintended consequence after archiving an active bank account.

  3. Good day,

    The bank feed is currently taking days to load new transaction into the system to be reconciled. This cause issues like outstanding payment emails being sent automatically to clients even though the money is in the account already, it is just not yet pulled through to the system yet. Admin gets piled up.

    It would be ideal if the transactions would show on the system the same time it shows in the bank as well. And not wait days to be pulled through.

    Let me know if you need any further clarification from my side.

  4. Dear Support,
    Please expand bank feed connections to the Bank of Singapore (An OCBC Company). This will assist greatly in processing bank account information in Xero.

    Thanks for taking the time to suggest this. We understand the request to add Bank of Singapore as a supported bank feed connection. This could help customers and advisors spend less time managing manual statement uploads.

    For now, bank transactions can be brought into Xero by importing a supported statement file from your banking provider.

    We've updated this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking interest from the community. If this connection would help your business, add your vote and let us know more about your setup.

  5. The new RBC connector cannot see the Line of Credit feeds and has to be refreshed separately compared to the old connector (Yodlee?)

    Hi Samantha, thanks for highlighting this improvement. We understand the ask to have a direct bank feed for RBC Line of Credit accounts could make it much easier to keep borrowing activity and repayments up to date without relying on manual imports.

    At the moment, direct feeds for some RBC Line of Credit accounts aren't available. This means transactions may need to be imported manually, which can add extra steps when reconciling your accounts and monitoring balances.

    In the meantime, you can download transactions from your RBC Online Banking account and import them into Xero using the Import a Statement option. This helps keep your account up to date while continuing to reconcile activity in Xero.

    We'll continue to track interest and gather more input from others who'd benefit from this capability.

  6. When linking a Co-Operative Bank Business account it is currently necessary to download and print off a pre-populated form, sign and then upload. Two weeks later you (I assume this is a common experience) receive a message saying the bank account number needed to be 16 digits. You then need to do the whole thing again, this time adding two zeros to the end of the bank account number so the system can recognise it.

    Ideally of course non of this would be necessary but I think the piece of paper itself is a Co-Op problem not a Xero one.…

    Hi Carolyn, thanks for raising this with the community. We can see how a simpler way to connect Co-operative Bank accounts could make getting started with bank feeds much easier.

    At the moment, the setup process for some bank feeds is determined by the bank's requirements, which may include completing and submitting an authority form before the feed can be activated. While waiting for the bank feed to be approved, you can import bank statements manually using CSV files to keep your accounts up to date and continue reconciling transactions.

    I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking community interest. If you'd like to share more, it would be helpful to know which part of the setup process caused the most friction, whether it was the forms, the approval timeframe, or something else.

    Hi everyone, thanks for raising this with the community.

    We can see how email notifications for disconnected or expired bank feeds could help users stay on top of issues and take action sooner when a connection needs attention.

    I've updated the status of this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue gathering feedback and better understand how proactive bank feed notifications could support your workflows.

    Please keep adding your votes and sharing more detail on how you'd like these alerts to work.


  9. Currently, a check written is downloaded in the feed with the date the check cleared and no payee name. It would be fantastic if AI could read the check, enter the payee and the date the check was actually written rather than the date it cleared. That would save the user from having to look up the check on the bank website and manually editing it so that the bank reconciliation is actually correct.

  10. I have a linked Revolut Business account. Transactions are showing up correctly. The issue comes when an already reconciled transactions is marked as expense in Revolut (and adding an invoice). Those expenses comes as a separate transactions in Xero.

    The expected behavior is to update the existing transaction and add the expense info (attachment, category) to it.

    Hi Stefan, thanks for raising this idea. We understand why automatically matching Revolut expense syncs with existing transactions could help keep your bank reconciliation cleaner and reduce manual review.

    Currently, when synced expenses create separate lines instead of updating existing records.

    I’ve updated this post to Gaining Support so we can continue tracking feedback and gather more votes.

  11. When adding a new bank account the client needs to tick 'don't select' on all the other accounts which can be unsettling if these accounts already have bank feeds. There must be better wording for this, or remove the need to tick 'don't select'.

    Hi Saara, we can see how updates to the labels or instructions in the bank feed connection flow could help make setup clearer and reduce the chance of selecting the wrong account.

    We'll continue tracking interest and share the feedback with our product teams.

    Thanks for sharing your idea, Ellen. We appreciate there are more banks our customers would like to see us to connect with and save manual efforts involved in having to import bank statements manually.

    We'l start to get a sense of the wider interest in a feed with Caixa and I'll be sure to let you know here if there are any plans made for this.

  13. It would be great if Xero can support Japanese banks in the Bank Feed. Been looking for any API to help me connect the Rakuten Bank to Xero but I found nothing.

  14. Xero urgently needs to add support for Hong Leong Bank commercial banking accounts (ConnectFirst) for automatic bank feeds and auto reconciliation. Right now, the Hong Leong connection appears limited to personal banking, which is not useful for many real business users.

    For companies like ours, the actual operating account is under ConnectFirst, not personal banking. Without commercial bank feed support, we are forced into manual uploads and manual reconciliation, which defeats the purpose of automation and increases admin workload and error risk.

    Please add Hong Leong ConnectFirst support as soon as possible. This would be a high-impact improvement for Malaysian…

    Hi Rex, thanks for sharing this suggestion. We understand you’re looking for automatic bank feeds for Hong Leong Bank ConnectFirst business accounts, so transactions can flow directly into Xero without needing manual imports.

    Having a direct connection could help make reconciliation more efficient and reduce extra steps when managing daily finances.

    I’ve updated this idea to Gaining Support so we can continue gathering feedback and examples from the community.


  15. Would be great if users could be directly notified if there is a bank feed disruption or issue for their specific bank accounts.

    Thanks for sharing your suggestion for Xero. We've reviewed the proposed changes, and your idea is now officially open for community voting and comments.

    Please spread the word! Share your idea with colleagues and others who would benefit, urging them to add their vote and specific feedback. Community support is the key to moving this forward.

  16. HSBC Business bank feed that updates more frequently than 24 hours in arrears. The fact that it takes more than a day for a customer payment to appear in Xero makes it hard to have effective account management.

    Hi Nikki — thanks for sharing this and explaining how more frequent updates would help your account management. I can see that you have raised this previously with Xero Support and as you know there is a delay of 24 hours for the UK HSBC bank feed to reduce duplicates 😣. We can assure you that we’ll keep monitoring this and will update the thread as further improvements become available. Thanks again for raising it and helping us track demand.

    Returning to the idea here we appreciate while Xero currently supports feeds for Personal Fidelity bank account types it's not possible to set up a feed for investment account types.

    We'd like to track and understand the interest from our community in this. We'll share with everyone here if plans are made.

  18. On the dashboard and/or Accounting drop-down? I find that I have to manually refresh my Chase accounts daily to get up to date.

    ✨ Thanks for the suggestion – we love hearing how we could make bank feeds easier to manage.

    Right now we’re not planning a single “refresh all bank feeds” button in the near future. A few reasons why:

    • Banks control timing: Many feeds update on a schedule set by the bank or provider, so a global refresh wouldn’t guarantee instant data across all accounts.
    • Reliability & limits: Triggering lots of refreshes at once can hit provider limits and make refreshes fail more often, which is a worse experience overall.
    • Security & MFA: Some feeds require multi‑factor authentication or a specific user to refresh, which can’t safely be handled by a single bulk action.

    For now we’re focusing on keeping per‑account refresh reliable and clear in the new homepage banking widget, and we’ll keep tracking interest in bulk refresh for future planning.

  19. Support Morgan Stanley Client Serv.
    Just signed up for Xero today, and now I have to cancel because you don't support my bank. Worth mentioning that MS doesn't provide acceptable export options for their data, so there isn't a clean method for me to transform their data to get it into Xero. I will mention that QBO perfectly integrates with it, so clearly the pipeline has been built by someone.

    Hi Seth, thanks for sharing this suggestion. It’s clear that bank feeds for Morgan Stanley investment accounts would reduce manual imports and make it easier to keep investment data up to date in Xero.
