MyQuarters and Flinks Offer a New Way to Save for a Home
MyQuarters Inc., a platform specializing in generating home savings through rewards, and Flinks, a provider of financial data connectivity services, have joined forces to "provide Canadians with a new way to save for a home."
The alliance utilizes open banking infrastructure to allow the Quarters service to access and analyze users' transactional banking information securely. The integration will automatically identify and reward a user's routine financial activities — from making purchases and receiving income to accomplishing specific financial goals. The value proposition centers on converting these normal patterns of expenditure and income into incremental contributions toward a savings target for home ownership. This process happens passively without necessitating deliberate changes to the user’s behavior. Flinks' role is to supply the secure technical framework that enables this continuous and protected data exchange.
