YNAB Direct Import
YNAB Direct Import (Plaid) only covers select banks in Norway — many users still CSV-import from Bank Norwegian. BudgetSyncer uses open banking where Bank Norwegian is listed in GoCardless.
Connect your Bank Norwegian account through secure open banking — you authenticate at your bank, not with BudgetSyncer.
Connect your YNAB budget with OAuth so BudgetSyncer can import transactions into the accounts you choose.
BudgetSyncer imports new Bank Norwegian transactions into YNAB automatically, several times per day.
No manual CSV imports from online banking.
Less delay in keeping your YNAB budget current.
A simpler budgeting workflow — categorization and reconciliation stay in YNAB.
YNAB users in Norway who bank with Bank Norwegian.
People tired of manual bank imports or broken Direct Import connections.
Anyone who wants automatic transaction syncing without storing bank passwords in a third-party app.
Bank Norwegian is one of the most searched banks among European YNAB users in Norway. The budgeting method works — but keeping accounts current when your bank and YNAB do not talk to each other creates weekly friction.
YNAB offers Direct Import in Norway through Plaid, but coverage is limited to certain institutions — and Bank Norwegian is often not on the list, or the connection breaks after credential changes. Many Bank Norwegian customers still export CSV files from online banking and import them manually each week.
Even when imports work, the process is fragile: export formats change, pending transactions appear twice, and your YNAB budget is only as fresh as your last upload. If you share a budget with a partner or track multiple Bank Norwegian accounts, the manual work multiplies.
BudgetSyncer is a YNAB-approved integration built for European YNAB users who want automatic bank sync without storing bank passwords. You connect YNAB once with OAuth, then authorize Bank Norwegian through regulated PSD2 open banking (via GoCardless). BudgetSyncer reads transactions and imports them into the YNAB accounts you choose.
Your Bank Norwegian login never passes through BudgetSyncer — authentication happens on your bank's own secure consent screen, the same flow used by other open-banking apps in Norway. Access is read-only: BudgetSyncer cannot move money or change account settings.
Transactions sync on a schedule (several times per day). YNAB handles duplicate detection when transactions arrive — BudgetSyncer focuses on keeping the feed from Bank Norwegian reliable, including notifications when bank consent needs renewal.
Step 1 — Create a free BudgetSyncer account and sign in. You can browse supported banks and connect YNAB before subscribing. No credit card is required to explore whether Bank Norwegian appears for Norway in the bank directory.
Step 2 — Connect YNAB with OAuth. BudgetSyncer requests permission to read your budgets and accounts and to create transactions in the YNAB accounts you select. You can revoke access anytime from YNAB or BudgetSyncer.
Step 3 — Add a bank connection and select Norway in the country picker. Search for Bank Norwegian. If your branch or subsidiary appears under a slightly different name, pick the listing that matches your account — open banking directories sometimes use legal entity names.
Step 4 — Complete Bank Norwegian's authorization flow in your browser. Your bank may ask you to confirm access in its mobile app or with strong authentication. Once approved, BudgetSyncer can read new transactions from the linked account.
Step 5 — Map the Bank Norwegian account to the correct YNAB account and enable sync when you subscribe. New transactions flow into YNAB automatically. Review imports in YNAB as you normally would; categorization and reconciliation stay in YNAB.
Bank connections run through GoCardless Bank Account Data, a PSD2-regulated provider. BudgetSyncer does not store your Bank Norwegian credentials. Consent expires under EU rules — when it does, you re-authorize through a short in-app flow.
You can disconnect Bank Norwegian from BudgetSyncer or revoke consent directly at your bank. We store only OAuth tokens and mapping settings needed to sync while your subscription is active, as described in our privacy policy.
Most users complete setup in under five minutes. After the first sync, check YNAB for imported transactions from Bank Norwegian and confirm payee names look right. You can adjust field mapping in BudgetSyncer if you want cleaner memos or payees.
Running a shared YNAB budget? Each linked Bank Norwegian account counts as one connection — map checking and savings separately if you track them in different YNAB accounts. Cancel anytime from account settings; bank consent can also be revoked at Bank Norwegian directly.
If Bank Norwegian is not listed for Norway, use the unsupported-bank form on this page — we track demand and expand coverage as GoCardless adds institutions. Pricing starts at 4.99€/month for one bank connection, with +1.49€/month for each additional linked account.
