Chase Biller Connection

tkuligowski

My understanding is that both Simplifi and Mint use Intuit for data aggregation. I have a Amazon Rewards card (Chase) and transaction downloading works fine, but it doesn't have a bill connection. I don't understand why Mint is able able to find all this automatically and still reports my current statement amount, but Simplifi posts in the community forum state the bill connect service is discontinued?

I also don't understand how Mint is able to use one connection to download all my transactions and get my statement amount, yet Simplifi has two separate systems where I need to connect in one way to get my transactions and then separately, the bill connect option, which just doesn't exist for Chase. So if you have a Credit Card you basically have to connect twice to the same institution.

Thanks for any input or information.

@tkuligowski, thanks for posting your inquiry to the Community!

Although I'm not sure why Chase is no longer supported for Bill Connect, nor am I sure why Quicken Simplifi uses separate service providers for online banking versus online billers, we have an existing Idea post available here where other users have expressed the same concern:

It sounds like what's being asked for would provide a workaround for the lack of connectivity when it comes to credit cards, so I'd definitely suggest adding your vote and feedback and then following it for updates.

I hope this helps!
