What is an account aggregator?

So, to ensure data security
Jupiter fetches data via a certified provider : Finvu
This is a constraint as most errors stem from third parties like account aggregators or banks, but users often perceive Jupiter as the culprit.

Main problem
User trust and Understanding
Painpoint 1
How do I do it?
Users felt lost and confused during the account linking process
Pain point 2
Is the process safe?
Receiving OTPs from unknown sources made users fear data leaks
Painpoint 3
How do I fix errors?
60% of users experienced failures with no clear next steps.
As a result, users go
"Eh, I ll do it later"
This is a problem because linking accounts is the gateway to meaningful insights. Without it, users can’t access the app’s core value, making the app essentially useless.
