We use bank connections both when you apply for a line of credit, and for ongoing review of your account:
Providing bank connections for a Bluevine Line of Credit won’t affect your credit score. If you close or change bank accounts, you can easily connect a new one from your dashboard.
If you have a line of credit and a Bluevine Business Checking account, connecting your external bank account can also have benefits for your Bluevine Business Checking account. See our business checking bank connection guide to learn more.
To connect your external bank accounts, we use a service by Plaid, which lets you link your external accounts to Bluevine by signing in with your bank credentials. (We won’t see your bank sign-in information.) Making a connection is fast, easy, and secure—Plaid communicates with your bank to keep your sign-in information private.BVSUP-00054
The easiest way to connect your bank account is to head to the Home tab of your Bluevine dashboard and click “Transfer money.” In the “Transfer from” dropdown menu, click “Add bank account.” You can also access this “Transfer money” screen from your Checking tab.
There are three other ways to connect your external account:
Be sure to enter the correct information for your username, password, and security answers. The most common reason customers are unable to connect their bank accounts is a password or username error.
If your external bank isn’t listed, please feel free to give us a call at (888) 216-9619, select option 1, then select option 2. We’ll work with Plaid to see if we can add your institution to our bank connection service.
Once you’ve successfully linked your external account, you’ll be able to set it as your primary account if you haven’t already.
Some external banks will require you to join a three-way call with Bluevine customer support to finalize your connection. If this is the case, please call us during business hours—Monday through Friday, 8am–8pm ET—and we’ll help you every step of the way.
If your external bank account gets disconnected, we’ll notify you via email and on your Bluevine dashboard. There are multiple reasons your account might get disconnected, but none of them will affect the pending debits and credits on your account.
To re-establish the bank connection, just head to External Accounts on your dashboard and click “Add bank account.” We may ask you for additional security information to verify the reconnection.
