Connecting a bank (Plaid)

Connect a bank with Plaid

Link an account so your transactions and balances stay up to date automatically.

Linking a bank is optional, and it is the easiest way to keep Vault current without typing. Connections are handled by Plaid, a trusted service that securely connects apps to banks.

  1. 01

    Start the connection

    In Settings, choose to manage linked banks, then add a bank.

  2. 02

    Choose your bank in Plaid

    Plaid's secure Link screen opens. Search for and select your institution.

  3. 03

    Sign in with Plaid

    Enter your bank username and password on Plaid's screen. You are signing in to your bank through Plaid, not into Vault.

  4. 04

    Pick accounts and finish

    Choose which accounts to share. Plaid hands a secure token back, and your transactions begin to sync.

Once linked, transactions and balances keep themselves current. You can also pull the latest any time with Sync Now.
