Common questions

Do I need to export anything?

No. Nightlight reads your purchasing data directly through the Fintech connection. You do not need to download, export, or upload any files.

What kind of access does Nightlight need?

Read-only access to your Fintech account. Nightlight can see purchasing data but cannot move money, place orders, or change any settings in your account.

What happens after I approve the request?

Nightlight pulls the purchasing data needed for your baseline report and sends it back to you. After that, you receive recurring reports on an ongoing cycle — each one sharper than the last as context accumulates.
