Regiobank is compatible with Flow! You can connect your account and start flowing money to and from your Regiobank account in the Flow app. However, there are some limitations that you should be aware of.
Flow + Regiobank = 💛
While open banking ensures that banks give you the option to share your data with services like Flow, it’s up to the bank to decide the quality and limitations of the integration, which is why not all banks are equal in Flow. If you want Flow to be able to provide a more advanced integration with Regiobank, the best way to help is to reach out to Regiobank and ask for it.
1 bank account 💶 = 1 jar 🍯
Flow uses different bank accounts you own to set up rules and automatically move money for you. For example, you might have one jar for your inbox (where money comes in), one for holiday savings and one for housing expenses. That means you need more than one bank account to make the most out of Flow.
Those accounts don’t have to be at the same bank. The power of Flow is being bank-agnostic and bridging the gap between all your accounts, so you have the option of opening more Regiobank accounts or open a new account with another bank that offers more flexibility.

FAQs
❓ Can I use flow with just one Regiobank account?
Yes. But you’ll be limited in how much you can automate your money. Flow supports 2 types of money destinations. Internal → your bank accounts, and External → services like Meesman, other investing accounts and saving accounts that have an IBAN. With one bank account, you will still be able to run automations and send money to external destinations, like investing accounts, but you won’t be able to create jars and organize your money.
❓ How can I open multiple Regiobank accounts?
If you want to open a new business bank account at Regiobank, you have to contact them directly. They have a monthly cost for each additional business or personal account that you open with them.
❓ Is it better to have multiple Regiobank accounts or open with a new bank?
One of the biggest advantages of Flow is being truly bank-agnostic. That means you can connect multiple accounts from different banks and manage them all from one place. Keeping up with that, we think the best approach is to open an account with a new bank that offers more features (and can be even cheaper). You can still use your Regiobank account for salary and fixed expenses, but use your other account for more advanced automations and budgeting.
❓ What does manual and auto approving flow mean?
Flow = money automation. That means you set up conditions (ex: when I receive my salary) and actions (send 10% to my holiday savings account). These conditions can happen automatically in the background each month, without you needing to press any button. However, we know that sometimes you want a bit more control over where your money flows, so you also have the option to manually approve Flows. In this case, you’ll get a notification and be asked to approve the transaction before your money flows anywhere.
❓ Can I use Flow for both business and personal?
Yes. As long as the bank is supported, you can add as many business and/or personal bank accounts as you want. We think having all your finances in the same place is a big advantage of Flow, so we encourage you to add and organise everything in the Flow app.
