Automatic bank linking through Plaid is not available yet for global accounts after the upgrade. We are working on it and will let you know when it is ready. In the meantime, you can connect an external service manually using your account and routing numbers with micro-deposits, as explained below.
Some apps (payroll, marketplaces, brokerages, and similar) can connect to your GrabrFi account. For now, use the manual method below. Automatic linking through Plaid will be available later.
Connect manually: account numbers and micro-deposits
If the external app offers "Link with account numbers" or "Manual link," you can connect using your GrabrFi routing and account numbers and verify with micro-deposits.
Where to find your details in GrabrFi
Open the GrabrFi app, go to your global account, then Account details, and copy your Routing Number and Account Number.
How to connect manually
In the external app, choose "Link with account numbers" (or similar).
Enter your GrabrFi routing and account numbers carefully.
Wait for micro-deposits to arrive in your GrabrFi account (typically 1 to 2 business days; some services support same-day or near-instant verification).
Return to the external app to verify either the two small deposit amounts, or a short code in the deposit description (often a 6-character code like "SMxxxx").
The app confirms your account is linked.
Some platforms limit verification attempts. If you exceed the limit, you may need to restart or contact that app’s support.
Connect automatically: Plaid (coming soon)
Automatic linking through Plaid is not available yet for global accounts. Once it is ready, many services will let you connect by searching for GrabrFi in their bank-linking screen. We will let you know when this option is live. Until then, please use the manual method above.
How long does linking and the first transfer take?
Manual linking with micro-deposits: 1 to 2 business days is common; some providers verify same day or even within minutes using faster rails.
Transfers after linking: many apps send ACH transfers that clear in around 0 to 3 business days (exact timing depends on the other app).
Troubleshooting
I never received the micro-deposits.
Give it 1 to 2 business days; if nothing arrives, confirm your routing and account numbers and restart the manual link in the external app. Some providers time out the verification if you do not complete it within their window.
My verification failed.
Small entry mistakes are common. Double check the amounts or descriptor code exactly as shown in your GrabrFi transaction list. If you run out of attempts, contact that app’s support to reset.
Safety and privacy
You control what you share. You can unlink access from within the external app at any time; unlinking there stops new data sharing (the app’s past records remain with them).
Quick checklist
For now, use Link with account numbers and verify with micro-deposits.
Keep an eye on your GrabrFi transaction history for two small deposits or a small deposit with a short code.
Automatic linking through Plaid is coming soon; we will let you know when it is available.
