How can I connect my bank instantly?

Log in securely via Plaid, the world's largest bank connector.

Updated over a week ago

For an instant connection to deposit, we'd recommend connecting your bank by logging in securely via Plaid, the world's largest bank connector.

To link via Plaid on the app:

  1. Select the slide drawer icon with 3 lines on it in the top left corner, ≡

  2. Scroll down and select Account Settings

  3. Scroll down to Banking and select Payment Methods

  4. Tap Link your Bank and then tap the blue Continue button in the bottom right corner

Then search for your bank and log in to get securely (and instantly) connected.

You might have to disconnect your current unverified bank connection first before the above steps work. (From the Payment Methods screen, tap the three dots in the corner of the box with your bank name, then tap Disconnect).

If your bank isn't listed or has trouble connecting via Plaid, you can always connect via micro deposits.

Any other questions about funding your account? The team is always here for you, so feel free to give us a shout on the app’s Chat or via email at support@public.com.
