What is the catch with Mint?
The catch is that you have to provide the username and password you use for each one, which can certainly make you feel jittery if you’re worried about a security breach. Mint is designed to be a read-only service, which means you can’t transfer money back and forth between accounts.

Does Quicken have an API?
Perhaps the Quicken team doesn’t truly appreciate how important and valuable a tool like this would be for users of their product. Nearly every other financial software package includes an API nowadays and it is time for Quicken to catch up to modern expectations.
Is Mint or Truebill better?

Is there an API for Mint com?
Obviously, an API provided by mint.com would be ideal, but as far as I know there isn’t one available. Let me know if I’ve missed that. A second option is to write a script that authenticates to mint.com and scrapes the site periodically. Has anybody attempted to do this (in any language on any platform)?
What is the password of my Mint account?
Mint does not have your passwords. They have a unique, unencryptable hash key that was created by your bank account in order to connect Mint to your bank. You enter your login information with your bank, and your bank sends a unique API key to Mint.
