Your bank account details are essential for getting paid. They appear on your invoice PDFs so clients know where to send payment. Aourly lets you manage one or more bank accounts and designate a primary account for invoicing.

Accessing Bank Accounts

Open the Tenant Menu (your company name in the sidebar) and click Bank Accounts. This page shows all bank accounts you have registered for your company.

Creating a Bank Account

Click Create Bank Account and fill in the following fields:
FieldDescription
Account nameA label for your own reference (e.g., “Main Business Account”, “EUR Account”).
Bank nameThe name of your bank (e.g., “Nordea”, “SEB”, “Handelsbanken”).
IBANYour International Bank Account Number. Required for international transfers.
BIC/SWIFTYour bank’s identification code. Required for international transfers.
Bankgiro numberYour Bankgiro number for Swedish domestic payments. This is the standard B2B payment method in Sweden.
Swish numberYour Swish number, if you accept Swish payments. Optional.
CurrencyThe currency of this account (e.g., SEK, EUR, USD).
You can find your IBAN and BIC/SWIFT in your online banking portal, on your bank statements, or by contacting your bank.

Setting a Primary Account

Your primary bank account is the one whose details appear on your invoice PDFs. When clients receive your invoice, they will see:
  • Your bank name
  • IBAN
  • BIC/SWIFT code
  • Bankgiro number
  • Swish number (if provided)
To set an account as primary, toggle the primary option when creating or editing the account. Only one account can be primary at a time. If you change your primary account, new invoices will use the updated details. Invoices that were already sent retain the bank details that were on them at the time of sending.

Multiple Bank Accounts

You can register multiple bank accounts in Aourly. This is useful if you:
  • Work in multiple currencies — keep a SEK account for Swedish clients and an EUR account for European clients.
  • Have accounts at different banks — some clients may have preferences or reduced fees with certain banks.
  • Separate business purposes — for example, a main operating account and a tax savings account.
Even with multiple accounts, only the primary account appears on invoices. You can change the primary account at any time.

Linking to Bookkeeping Accounts

If you use Aourly’s bookkeeping feature, you can link each bank account to a corresponding account in the BAS chart of accounts. For example:
  • 1930 — Corporate bank account (Företagskonto)
  • 1940 — Foreign currency bank account
This link enables Aourly to create accurate bookkeeping vouchers when you register payments against invoices. The payment will be recorded as a debit to the correct bank account. This step is optional but recommended if you manage your bookkeeping in Aourly or export data to an accounting system.

Important Notes

  • Only Owners can manage bank accounts. Coordinators and Performers do not have access to bank account settings.
  • Keep your details up to date. If you switch banks or your account details change, update them in Aourly before sending new invoices.
  • Double-check your IBAN. An incorrect IBAN on an invoice can cause payment delays if a client attempts an international transfer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I have multiple bank accounts? Yes. Add as many as you need. Only the primary account appears on invoices. What is a Bankgiro number? Bankgiro is a Swedish payment network commonly used for B2B payments. Your Bankgiro number allows clients to pay you through this system. Most Swedish businesses use Bankgiro for invoice payments. Do I need to add a Swish number? Swish is optional. It is convenient for receiving smaller payments or payments from individuals, but most B2B invoice payments in Sweden go through Bankgiro or bank transfer. What happens if I change my primary bank account? New invoices will show the updated bank details. Previously sent invoices keep the details they had when sent. What is BIC? BIC (Bank Identifier Code), also called SWIFT code, is an international code that identifies your bank. It is needed for international transfers so the sending bank can route the payment correctly. You can find your BIC in your online banking portal or on your bank statements. Where do I find my IBAN and BIC/SWIFT? Check your online banking portal, your bank statements, or contact your bank directly. In Sweden, IBANs start with “SE” followed by 22 digits.
Your primary bank account details appear on every invoice PDF. Make sure they are correct before sending invoices.
If you work with international clients, consider adding a separate bank account with the appropriate currency to avoid conversion confusion.
Only the company Owner can manage bank accounts. Coordinators and Performers cannot access this setting.
