Plaid bank account verification for onboarding

Rainforest is excited to share that you can now use Plaid bank account verification for merchant onboarding! Plaid authenticates your merchant's financial information, permitting companies to transfer sensitive information securely. You can learn more about how Plaid works or how they secure financial data.

Merchants can continue to enter their bank account data manually if they are unable to connect through Plaid or not interested in using Plaid. You can also choose to continue to only offer manual entry.

How to enable

Contact your Customer Success Manager directly or post a message to your Slack channel or to [email protected] requesting to have Plaid enabled for your platform or with any questions about Plaid usage or pricing.

Prerequisites

Before we can enable Plaid, you'll need to update your onboarding component integration so that your sessions use our new authentication permission groups.
