Step 2: Adding a Bank Account with Plaid

 

1. Arbiter uses Plaid, a third-party integration, to securely and easily add your bank account. Click Continue and follow the instructions on the Plaid menu.

2. Select or search your bank institution.

3. Plaid will prompt you to enter your bank login credentials.

4. After you enter your bank login credentials, you will need to go through Multi-Factor Authentication with your bank, which Plaid will guide you through.

5. After the authentication succeeds, select the bank account you want to add and you will be returned to Arbiter with your added bank account shown on the left side of the Accounts page.
   • If your bank institution requires further verification, your bank account will be added as pending on the Accounts page and you will need to wait until this verification is completed on Plaid's end.

Manual Add

If you are unable to find your bank or if you are having trouble adding your bank by entering login credentials, you have the option to manually add an account. Scroll to the bottom of the bank institution list and click Link with account numbers. Follow Plaid's instructions to manually enter your bank details.

• Important Note: Manually adding a bank account with account numbers requires verification of two small micro-deposits which will take a couple of business days to complete. Your bank will add in a pending status, and you will need to return to the Accounts page to verify the amounts of the micro-deposits.
