How the bank connection works

When an applicant opens their invitation link, they pick their bank from this list and sign in through Plaid's secure window. Their login details go to Plaid and the bank, never to IncomeChecker.com or the person who requested the report. The connection is read-only: it can see transaction history, but it cannot move money or change anything on the account.

What if my bank isn't listed?

Coverage includes the large national banks, regional banks, most credit unions, and many online-only banks. If a bank doesn't appear in search, try its full legal name or the name of its parent company. Applicants with more than one account can connect whichever account their income is deposited into.

Which accounts work best

The best account to connect is the one where income is deposited, usually a checking account. Payroll direct deposits, gig platform payouts, benefits, and transfers from a business account all show up as deposits, so the report can pick them up. An account that only receives part of someone's pay will show only that part.

Common connection problems

  • Security code or app approval: many banks send a one-time code or ask you to approve the sign-in in their app. Keep your phone nearby when you connect.
  • Wrong login: use the same username and password you use for the bank's website, not a card PIN.
  • Bank temporarily unavailable: banks sometimes limit outside connections during maintenance. Waiting a little while and trying again usually works.
  • Link expired: invitation links expire for security. Ask the person who sent it for a fresh one.

How long it takes

Most applicants finish in two to five minutes. Once the bank connects, up to 12 months of transaction history is pulled in one pass, and the report is generated from that. Nothing needs to be uploaded, scanned, or mailed.

What the report uses

The report reads deposit and transaction history to estimate monthly income and spot recurring deposits. Account numbers are masked to the last four digits, and the bank access token is deleted right after the data is fetched.
