How does Banknaked find hidden fees?

Banknaked uses advanced algorithms to automatically scan and analyze the transaction data from your connected bank accounts via Open Banking. It is programmed to recognize thousands of fee descriptions and patterns, identifying everything from monthly maintenance charges to subtle foreign exchange markups that are often buried in your statements.

What if my bank isn't supported?

We are continuously expanding our list of supported banks and financial institutions through Open Banking partnerships. If your bank is not currently available, you can often still use the service by manually uploading your bank statements for analysis, or you can register your interest to be notified when support is added.

How much money can I really save?

While savings depend on your individual banking habits, the average user identifies over €250 in unnecessary banking fees each year. Many users discover significantly more, especially if they travel frequently or use services like international wire transfers. Banknaked not only finds these fees but provides actionable recommendations to eliminate them.
