present, on the touchscreen display, a home screen comprising an application icon identifying the first client application as being installed on the mobile device;
detect, via the home screen, using the touchscreen display, selection of the application icon stored in the memory, and in response to detecting selection of the application icon, launch the first client application, wherein the first client application is configured to cause, when executed by the mobile device, the processor to:
interface with a server of a first computing system to access an internet portal comprising an interactive graphical user interface (GUI) granting control over linking of accounts with client applications;
detect, via the GUI of the internet portal, a login credential entered by a user to authenticate the user as being authorized to access the internet portal;
retrieve, via the server, a first account identifier corresponding to a first financial account linked to the first client application, and a second account identifier corresponding to a second financial account linked to the first client application;
present, in the GUI of the internet portal, on the touchscreen display, an account listing that identifies accounts linked to the first client application, the account listing including the first financial account identifier and the second financial account identifier;
detect, via the account listing in the GUI of the internet portal, using the touchscreen display, a first input indicating selection of the first financial account;
present, in the GUI of the internet portal, on the touchscreen display, a first application listing that identifies applications linkable to accounts in the account listing such that account data is accessible to linked applications, the first application listing identifying a second client application installed on the mobile device and configured to access first account data of the first financial account via a second computing system of a second entity;
detect, via the first application listing in the GUI of the internet portal, using the touchscreen display, a second input indicating selection to link the second client application to the first financial account;
