Overview

Instead of building an integration with Adyen in-house, Tight communicates directly with Adyen on your behalf using your Adyen platform account. This enables you to own the relationship between your customer and Adyen, including any associated economic benefits, while getting a seamless invoicing user experience with automatic payout reconciliation on the user’s books.

Automated Reconciliation

Adyen deposits money directly into your users’ bank accounts on a regular cadence. When utilizing one of the Tight Bank Transactions integrations, e.g. Plaid, this deposit will also be ingested by the Tight API as part of that integration. Importantly, Tight’s integration with Adyen operates at the platform level, allowing Tight to reconcile the Balance Platform fees alongside the associated payments and ultimately the payouts to the end-user’s bank accounts and the transaction data from Plaid, saving your users time that would have otherwise been spent manually reconciling these transactions in legacy accounting systems. See the Invoice Payout Example to understand the level of complexity that Tight automates.

Become an Adyen Platform

If you haven’t already done so, you should create an Adyen account for your company/app.
