FAQs
What are Account Aggregators?
Account Aggregators are RBI-regulated entities that allow people to share and manage their financial data with companies under the new Data Empowerment And Protection Architecture framework. Learn more ↗
Financial data is only shared once the customer reviews a data request and approves it. Setu partners with licensed account aggregators, and we provide pre-built, customisable screens for your users to register, approve/reject/manage data consent requests.
What are FIPs and FIUs?
An FIP, is a financial information provider—like a bank or an insurance company—that is able to share financial data around a user of their product or service.
An FIU, or financial information user, is an entity that is requesting for data from an FIP—for their customer—for purposes like verification or enabling financial products for users.
How does the account aggregator’s consent framework work?
When an app/website requests for financial data from a customer, the customer can review details of the data request on an account aggregator app/website that they have registered with. The data request includes details like—
Type of data
Purpose and frequency of request
Duration of access to the data
...and more
The customer uses this information to approve or reject the request with a simple PIN based authentication.
A customer can also revoke consent for the data being shared. This gives complete control to users and also opportunities to financial apps and websites to build trust with their customers.
