Bank statement retrieval
In an effort to make applying for a loan as quick and easy as possible, we've implemented bank statement retrieval technology that allows us to digitally verify income and expenses.

Who is illion?
illion is an award-winning third-party provider for bank statement retrieval technology. Their product is designed to help lenders remove friction from the credit application process, meaning less paperwork, less fuss and a quicker decision. illion is also a government recognised credit reporting company.
Is bank statement retrieval secure?
Security is a high priority for both Heartland and illion. The illion retrieval technology uses 256-bit encryption, secured by 2048-bit keys, which is the same level of encryption used by most banks. This means your bank login credentials are not stored or shared with anyone (including Heartland or illion employees). Once statements have been securely collected by illion, they are sent to Heartland, and then permanently deleted.
If you've ever paid with Poli, the online debit payment option offered by certain major New Zealand vendors, you'll already be familiar with the concept of securely logging into your internet banking through a third-party provider. Bank statement retrieval is similar, but instead of making a payment, you're choosing which bank statements you want to send to a lender.
