Maybe a stupid question but does anyone know how they hook into your bank account and credit card details?

Mint.com is built on Yodlee's banking-data platform.

You can check out Techcrunch's view on Mint's use of Yodlee's data here:

Personally I think that such insane attention to detail on the user-interface is admirable and he definitely deserves the sale.
