⚠️ Luno closed accounts in some regions on 1 September 2026. Luno stopped providing services in those regions to focus on its core markets across Africa and South East Asia; affected customers were notified directly and can no longer sign in or connect via API. If your Luno account was closed, you can still ask Luno support for copies of your transaction statements, then import them into Recap using a Custom account. We have a guide here: Custom Account. See Luno's closure guidance for details. If your account is in one of Luno's ongoing markets, the steps below still apply as normal.
Recap supports integration with Luno through a read-only API key. Once connected, we pull in your transaction history and set up a real-time connection to your account.
Step 1 - Create a new read-only API key in Luno
Complete these steps on the Luno website rather than the mobile app (the app will redirect you to a browser anyway).
Sign in at luno.com, select your initials (top left) to open your profile, then select Security
In the Security menu, choose API keys
Select CREATE API KEY
Enter Recap as the key label, select Read-only access and leave both checkboxes unchecked, then select NEXT
Copy your key ID and secret (important to do at this stage, as you can't view the secret again later)
Select CREATE API KEY, then approve the push notification or email from Luno to authorise the key. (If you skip this authorisation step, the connection to Recap will fail.)
Step 2 - Connect to Luno in your Recap account
In Accounts, click the Add Account button, then select Exchange API, then Luno.
Give your Luno account a name.
Enter the Key ID and Secret that you created in Luno during Step 1 and click Next.
Your Luno account will be added in Recap and your data will start to be fetched. Please allow some time for us to retrieve the data. If you have a very large account history, this could take up to 5 minutes.
