To connect or reconnect your bank account:
- Visit the Settings gear in the top-right corner of the Dave app
- Tap Linked Banks and Card
- Tap Change
- Select Change bank
After you find your bank, you'll use the same login info you would normally use to login with your bank. You'll be asked some security questions, Dave will verify using micro-deposits and that's it! Your bank should connect to Dave.
Issues & Tips
Make sure you're entering your most recent correct login information. Check the username and password you use on your external bank's app, then give it another try.
If you're seeing continuous error messages when connecting your bank account, you may want to try connecting a different account or sign up for a Dave Spending account and set your direct deposit there. Please note, when connecting your debit card:
-
Dave doesn't support PayPal, American Express, Discover, Cash App, Credit Karma or most Prepaid accounts.
-
The card or bank account should not be a joint account.
-
Your debit card should not be within two (2+) months from the expiration date.
And just to let you know, if you have any outstanding balances, you'll need to settle those before updating your bank connection.
