Crezco vs Tarabut Gateway Account Information

Crezco provides an API and financial products that let platforms embed payments for small and medium-sized businesses. Its bill payment service supports real-time and scheduled bank transfers, card payments, domestic and international suppliers, and single or bulk payments. Platforms can embed payables while retaining control of the user experience and payment fees. Crezco also describes real-time international payouts to more than 180 countries in more than 36 currencies. Listed accounting integrations include Xero, QuickBooks, Quickfile, Sage, SIF Health, MazApp, Duport and Haibooks. Outstanding bills imported from Xero can go back up to the previous 365 days. The service is available through web and API, with payment webhooks and instant settlement; bank authentication uses a redirect. Plans include Collect Plus at £10/ month, Send Plus at £20/ month and Premium at £27/ month. There is no free plan. Crezco lists a 30-day trial, and says Send Plus and Premium subscribers get a one-month free trial.

Tarabut Gateway Account Information connects customer bank accounts through an Open Banking consent journey and provides account data after permission is granted. Its Connect service supplies an embeddable URL that guides customers through bank selection, permissions, bank authentication, and consent. Available information can include accounts, transactions, direct debits, and beneficiaries. Transaction responses may include category and merchant details through Insights. Documentation says one year of transaction history is fetched by default, although available history varies by bank. Consent can be one-time or long-term; long-term consent lasts up to 12 months and is required for categorisation. Refresh frequency depends on the bank, while APIs can request updated balances and transactions. Connect supports English and Arabic. Customers can withdraw access at any time, and Tarabut says credentials remain with the bank. A free Portal account provides an isolated development sandbox. Tarabut presents Connect for personal finance, spend management, and lending flows, with API and web access.
