Welcome to Ownwell! You’re just a few steps away from turbo charging your client engagement. Before you get started, you'll need to import your client data into Ownwell.

Connecting your Finmo account with your Ownwell account takes only a few minutes and a few clicks of a button!

An Important Consideration:
Whether you have an Individual Finmo Account (only your deals) or a Shared Finmo Account (your deals are mixed with another broker's).

Here's how to import clients from Finmo with an Individual Account:

Here's how to import clients from Finmo with a Shared Account:


Note: Finmo only allows two API tokens to be "in use" at once. If you find yourself unable to generate a new token for this reason, you will need to delete an inactive token to generate a new one. You can see whether or not a token is in active use by looking at the "Last used" date.

If you're using both of your existing Finmo API tokens (both are active) - You can reach out to Finmo's support team to generate an additional token. They will create a new one for you in the backend and provide it to you!
