Bank connections

How many banks can I connect?

Grow connects up to 5 banks. Thrive and Thrive Duo have no limit, and on Thrive Duo each partner has their own. Each bank sign-in counts once, with all its accounts. Statements, accounts you add by hand and brokerages never count.

Every plan includes bank connections. Grow has a limit, and Thrive and Thrive Duo don't.

Grow

Up to 5

Thrive

No limit

Thrive Duo

No limit, for each partner

A free trial has the same limit as the plan you're trying. See What's included in each plan?

What counts

  • One bank sign-in is one connection, with every account it brings. Chequing, savings and a credit card under the same sign-in count once.
  • A second sign-in at the same bank, such as business banking, counts as another connection.
  • A connection waiting for you to reconnect still counts until you disconnect it.
  • Reconnecting, choosing accounts again or moving a bank to the other service never uses an extra connection.
  • Statement uploads, accounts you add by hand and brokerages connected on Investing don't count. Brokerages have their own limits: see How do I connect a brokerage?

On a computer or tablet, the Bank connections heading on Accounts shows how many you've used, for example 3 of 5 bank connections used.

When you reach the limit

If you try to connect another bank, you'll see All 5 bank connections are in use instead of the bank list. From there you can:

  • Choose See Thrive to look at a plan with no limit.
  • Choose Upload statements instead. Statements work for any bank and are never limited.
  • Choose Manage bank connections to disconnect one you no longer need. See How do I disconnect a bank?

If you move to a smaller plan

Nothing is disconnected. All your banks keep updating; you just can't connect another until you're below the new limit. For example, with 7 banks on Grow, you'd need to be down to 4 before adding one.

If you're starting a plan again and already have more banks than Grow includes, Grow isn't available. Thrive keeps them all. See How do I change my plan or amount?

Before you choose a plan

While you set up Finly Money, you can connect up to 2 banks before picking a plan. If you don't start a plan or free trial, those connections end 7 days after you connect the first one.

Frequently Asked Questions
