Can I integrate my Vivid Business account with ALF-BanCo?

Yes. ALF-BanCo (Windows) connects to your Vivid Business account via FinTS: you can see your accounts, balances and transactions and send SEPA transfers. Setup takes about 10–15 minutes.

This integration is available for businesses based in Germany. Any team member can set it up, whatever their role.

Before you start

  • Install ALF-BanCo from alf-banco.de.

  • Keep the Vivid app or Vivid web at hand: you will confirm the connection there.

Step 1. Create your FinTS PIN in Vivid

  1. Open Vivid Business and go to Transactions → Bookkeeping → Bookkeeping software.

  2. Generate a PIN. Copy it: you will need it in ALF-BanCo.

Each new PIN replaces the previous one. If you delete the PIN, ALF-BanCo loses access.

Step 2. Add Vivid in ALF-BanCo

  1. Start the account setup. On the first start, choose Erstes eigenes Konto einrichten. Later, click Neu under Konten verwalten.

  2. Choose HBCI / FinTS Zugang einrichten and click Weiter.

  3. Choose HBCI/FinTS mit PIN/TAN and click Weiter.

  4. On the Institut step, enter the bank details and click Weiter:

    • Bankleitzahl: 20220867

    • Kreditinstitut: Vivid

    • URL: api.prime.vivid.money/fints (without https://)

    • Port: 443

    • HBCI-/FinTS-Version: 3.00

  5. On the Zugangsdaten step, enter your phone number, +49…, as Benutzerkennung and Kunden-ID. Click Weiter.

  6. Enter the PIN from step 1 and confirm the login in the Vivid app or in Vivid web.

  7. Select the accounts you want to see in ALF-BanCo.

Good to know

  • You can send single SEPA transfers in EUR. Instant transfers, batch transfers and direct debits are not supported.

  • For security, a session ends after 5 minutes without activity. After 5 wrong PIN attempts, FinTS access is blocked. To unblock it, delete the PIN in Vivid and generate a new one.
