Sanso + Qonto: Sync Your Bank Transactions

Illustration of the Sanso Qonto integration: automatic reconciliation of bank transactions with the right invoices

Qonto Runs Your Business Account. But Reconciliation Is Still on You

Qonto has become the go-to business account for many French small businesses, and it's easy to see why. You open an account in minutes, hand out cards to the whole team, and manage your transfers, expense reports, spending categories, and accounting exports. Your money and your transactions live in one place, in an interface that doesn't drown you. If you picked Qonto, you picked well. And a well-designed Qonto integration can make it even more useful day to day.

Still checking your Qonto statements by hand?

Sanso uses AI to match every Qonto transaction with the right invoice, in real time, with zero data entry on your side.

Still, Qonto is a bank. It shows you your transactions, lets you attach a receipt and stick a label on them. What it doesn't do is everything that happens around each transaction. Finding the purchase or sales invoice that matches that exact transfer. Checking you're not paying the same supplier twice. Knowing, in real time, which clients have paid and which are dragging their feet. Then pushing all of it cleanly into your accounting tool. That reconciliation still gets done by hand, line by line, usually at month-end when time is short.

I'm Amalia Bercot, co-founder and CEO of Sanso. That missing link is exactly what we take care of. Sanso is an AI-powered finance management service: our Qonto integration syncs your banking activity and matches every transaction with the right invoice, continuously, without you checking off a single line.

What Sanso Adds to Your Qonto Integration

Sanso isn't yet another tool to learn, and it doesn't replace Qonto. It's a service that works from your Qonto data, on your behalf. The service relies on AI to get through the work: it reads your Qonto transaction feed, finds the matching invoice for each one, updates the statuses in your accounting, and even handles the messy cases that standard automatic reconciliation prefers to ignore.

The logic is simple. Qonto gives you the account and the banking feed; Sanso takes over reconciliation and synchronization. Standard automatic reconciliation stalls as soon as an amount is off by a single dollar, or a transfer label doesn't look like the invoice name. Sanso's AI, on the other hand, understands it's the same payment despite a currency conversion, a label that has nothing in common with the invoice, or a few days' gap between the invoice date and the transaction date.

And everything the AI processes stays visible where you already look: your transactions in Qonto, your invoices in your accounting tool. Nothing is hidden, nothing lives in a parallel interface you'd have to learn.

How Sanso and Qonto Work Together

Real-Time Bank Reconciliation

For every transaction on your Qonto account, Sanso's AI finds the matching purchase or sales invoice and updates the status in your accounting tool. It doesn't stop at the obvious cases. It catches the gaps caused by currency conversion, transaction labels that don't match the invoice wording, and the few days' lag between issuing an invoice and getting paid. Where standard automatic reconciliation gives up and files the item under "handle manually," Sanso makes the connection. The result: you know at any moment what's paid and what's still due, without checking your Qonto statements by hand.

Syncing Your Qonto Transactions with Your Accounting

Your Qonto transactions and your invoices should tell the same story. Sanso's AI takes care of it continuously: every incoming or outgoing transfer is linked to its supporting document, categorized according to your cost-accounting structure, and pushed to the right place in Pennylane, Tiime, Axonaut, or Xero. No more two-handed reconciliation, the bank on one side and the accounting on the other. The two stay aligned on their own.

Capturing the Invoice Behind Every Qonto Payment

A Qonto payment isn't worth much without its invoice next to it. Yet for many expenses, the receipt is still sitting in an inbox or on a supplier portal. Sanso's AI goes and gets it for you: it reads your emails, sorts real invoices from quotes and greeting cards, and discards duplicates. And when a document only exists on a portal (OpenAI, Amazon, your energy provider, a SaaS tool), an AI agent logs in and downloads it. Every Qonto transaction ends up backed by its document, ready to be reconciled.

What if your Qonto reconciliation handled itself?

Sanso takes care of reconciliation, invoice collection, and payment tracking around your Qonto account, so you never have to think about it.

Breaking Down Marketplace Payouts Received on Qonto

If you sell on marketplaces, you know the problem: your Qonto account receives bulk transfers that bundle hundreds of orders, refunds, and commissions into a single transaction. Reconciling that by hand, cleanly, is mission impossible. Sanso's AI breaks down each payout and ties every line to the matching individual entries in your accounting, with an automatic reconciliation rate that hovers around 96%. The few gaps that remain, our operators dig into and resolve, for full compliance.

Client Invoicing and Payment Tracking

On the sales side, the AI creates and sends your client invoices at the right time, then tracks their payment through real-time Qonto reconciliation. As soon as a client transfer hits the account, the invoice flips to "paid." And when a client is slow to pay, Sanso handles collections end to end: personalized follow-ups by email, text, or phone, and dispute handling until the money comes in. A far cry from the single automated email that stops at the first objection.

Who This Qonto Integration Is For

  • Owners of SMBs with 5 to 50 employees who bank with Qonto but still spend hours, or have someone else spend them, reconciling transactions at month-end.
  • Companies hesitating to hire a dedicated finance person: the volume doesn't justify a full-time role, but reconciliation and payment tracking overflow anyway.
  • Office managers and CFOs juggling ten projects at once who don't have time to check every Qonto transaction against every invoice.
  • Resellers and e-commerce sellers whose Qonto account receives those infamous marketplace transfers that have to be split into hundreds of entries before reaching the books.
  • Businesses with demanding cost accounting (consulting agencies, construction, startups) that want every Qonto expense tied to the right project, with no data entry.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to leave Qonto to use Sanso?
No. Sanso works from your Qonto account, not instead of it. You keep your bank, your cards, and your habits. Sanso's AI plugs into your transaction feed and does the reconciliation and synchronization the bank itself doesn't.
How do I connect Qonto to Sanso?
The connection happens once, during onboarding. You link your Qonto account and your inboxes, and Sanso works from your data from then on. Expect a few days to get up and running, with no interruption to your business.
Does Sanso replace Qonto's features?
No, it complements them. Qonto stays your business account: transfers, cards, payments, incoming payments. Sanso, for its part, matches every transaction with the right invoice, syncs your activity with your accounting, and takes on invoicing and collections, all powered by AI.
How does reconciliation between Qonto and my accounting work?
For every Qonto transaction, the AI finds the matching purchase or sales invoice and updates the status in your accounting tool (Pennylane, Tiime, Axonaut, Xero). It absorbs amount differences, mismatched labels, and date gaps, which is exactly what makes standard automatic reconciliation fail.
Does Sanso handle the marketplace payouts I receive on Qonto?
Yes. When a payout bundling hundreds of orders lands on your Qonto account, the AI breaks it down and ties it to the individual entries, with around 96% automatic reconciliation. For the few gaps that remain, our operators step in by hand to guarantee full compliance.
Aren't Qonto's built-in OCR and categorization enough?
Not really. A bank's categorization and OCR stay surface-level and only cover the simple cases. Sanso's AI reads any type of financial document, understands what it is, connects it to its context (email, history, other tools), and applies your cost-accounting structure, where Qonto just sticks a label on a transaction.
Do I stay in control of what Sanso does?
Yes, completely. Everything the AI processes lands in your Qonto, your accounting, and your usual tools. Nothing happens behind the scenes. And you keep control over the decisions that matter: payment approvals, follow-up priorities and tone, ambiguous cases.
Is my banking data secure?
Yes. Sanso is GDPR-compliant and hosts data in the European Union. Since the service operates from your existing tools, your data stays where it is, with controlled, traceable access. Sanso is also CASA (Cloud Application Security Assessment) certified by Google.
How much does Sanso cost on top of Qonto?
Sanso works on a monthly flat fee, calibrated to your transaction volume rather than charged per transaction. Expect between $300 and $2,000 per month. No commitment: you stop whenever you want.
Does Sanso work with tools other than Qonto?
Yes. Sanso also connects to other banking tools (Revolut Business, Float), to the main accounting tools (Pennylane, Tiime, Axonaut, Xero), and to Google Workspace.
