Grip shows you at a glance what you spend your money on, as it assigns all your transactions to useful categories, such as groceries.
The app can help you cut your spending on certain items. Simply set a budget and see exactly how much you can still spend on clothes, for instance.
Got paid yet? Or almost gone over your budget? Grip can alert you to things like this. Simply enable push notifications in the app (once only) and Grip will keep you up to date.
The Grip app shows you all your transactions at a glance, automatically assigning them to categories. You can set a budget for each category and receive a push notification when you have nearly reached your limit. You cannot transfer funds using Grip – you need the Mobile Banking app for this.

If you no longer wish to use the app, simply follow these 4 steps:
All of the ABN AMRO current and savings accounts that you use in the Mobile Banking app can be added to Grip. Accounts for which you are not authorised will not appear in the Grip app. You decide upon registration which accounts you want to use in Grip and you can enable or disable accounts at any time after registering. Simply go to the 'Accounts' tab and select 'Save' or 'Every day' (current accounts) at the top. Then enable or disable the account.
To add your Rabobank account to Grip, go to ‘Profile’ in the Grip app. Select ‘Add new’ next to 'Banks’ and choose Rabobank. You will now be redirected to Rabobank to confirm your choice. After logging in and confirming your request, you will automatically return to the Grip app.
You can add a bunq account if you are a bunq premium user. Simply go to 'Profile' in the Grip app and select 'Add new' next to 'Banks'. You will be asked to enter your API key, which you will first need to create in your bunq app. Log in to your bunq app and go to your profile. Select 'Beveiliging & instellingen' [Security & settings] > 'Developers' > 'API keys'. Create an API key, copy it and paste it in the Grip app.
First activate your ABN AMRO credit card in the Mobile Banking app, then go to the 'Accounts' tab in the Grip app. Select 'Every day' (current accounts) and add your credit card details (you can also remove your credit card in this section).
The Grip app uses the ABN AMRO credit card details as supplied by ICS (International Card Services) to ABN AMRO. ICS is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of your credit card details.
Want to add your ICS credit card details to the Grip app? Go to ‘Settings’ > ‘Manage account overview’ to the Grip app. Click the ‘Add other bank’ button and select ICS. You will now be redirected to ICS. You will then be asked to specify the credit card you have and to log in. After confirming your request, you will automatically return to the Grip app.
