FSKit, or FinanceKit, is a framework introduced by Apple that allows apps to access and manage financial data. It provides a rich set of financial information that can be used to build compelling financial apps. The core structures surfaced by the FinanceKit API include:

  1. Accounts: Representing financial accounts such as checking accounts, credit cards, or savings accounts. Each account has a balance and contains transactions.
  2. Balances: Representing the amount of money in an account at a particular moment in time.
  3. Transactions: Representing how money moves in or out of an account, with unique identifiers for tracking.

FinanceKit also includes tools for determining data availability, using pickers to access user-selected financial data, and creating queries for one-time or long-running access to financial data.
