How to track Banque Saudi Fransi transactions automatically

Banque Saudi Fransi already texts you every time money moves. PennyWise reads those messages on your phone and builds your spending record from them — no manual entry, no bank login, nothing leaves the device.

How it works

  1. Install PennyWise and grant SMS permission. That permission is the whole product — it is how the app sees your Banque Saudi Fransi alerts.
  2. PennyWise scans the Banque Saudi Fransi messages already on your phone and back-fills your transaction history in seconds.
  3. Every new Banque Saudi Fransi alert is picked up as it arrives and categorised automatically. Budgets and spending trends update on their own.

What PennyWise reads from your Banque Saudi Fransi messages

Everything above is extracted by an on-device parser written specifically for Banque Saudi Fransi's message formats. You can see it run on your own message, without installing anything: open the parser tool and paste in one of your Banque Saudi Fransi messages.

Why not just use a bank-login app?

Apps that aggregate accounts ask for your net-banking or account credentials and hold your transaction history on their servers. PennyWise asks for neither. It has no account system, makes no network calls to read your money, and its full source is published under AGPL-3.0 so the claim is checkable rather than promised.

Common questions

Does PennyWise work with Banque Saudi Fransi?

Yes. Banque Saudi Fransi is one of 157 banks and payment services PennyWise recognises. Transaction alerts from Banque Saudi Fransi are detected automatically and turned into categorised transactions in SAR.

Do I have to type my Banque Saudi Fransi transactions in by hand?

No. PennyWise reads the transaction SMS Banque Saudi Fransi already sends you and creates the entry itself — amount, merchant, date, account and running balance where the message includes it.

Does PennyWise need my Banque Saudi Fransi net-banking login or password?

Never. PennyWise has no login to your bank and no connection to Banque Saudi Fransi at all. It only reads the SMS already sitting on your phone, which is why it needs SMS permission and nothing else.

Is my Banque Saudi Fransi transaction data sent anywhere?

No. Parsing runs entirely on your device. There is no server, no account and no analytics on your financial data, and the source code is public so this can be verified.

What if a message from Banque Saudi Fransi is read incorrectly?

You can paste the message into the parser tool on this site to see exactly what PennyWise extracts, and report it in one click if it is wrong. Parser fixes ship in the next release.
