Product Highlights
Categorization improvement for payroll transactions: We recently improved the recall rate for payroll to 92%. We achieved this by building and introducing a platform that enables Plaid to use context from an item’s entire history—rather than single transactions in isolation—to better predict transaction categories.
Consent pane branding for Link: The recently updated Consent pane enables you to feature your own branding. Incorporate your branding quickly via the dashboard.
