Plaid provides tools that enable you to share your financial data with apps that provide services to you.
The inclusion of certain applications on this page does not constitute or imply an endorsement of the application by Plaid.
When you choose to connect your financial accounts to an app using Plaid, you will be prompted to enter the username and password associated with those accounts. Plaid then links your accounts to the app you want to use so you can share your data.
How we handle dataTo help keep your data safe, we don’t share the username and password for your financial institution with your apps. Once you give us permission to share your financial data, we securely transfer it from your financial institution to the app through our application programming interface (API).
