Frequently Asked Questions
How do I link my accounts from other financial institutions?
- Click "Link Account" from the Financial Tools or Spending tile to connect your non-Civista accounts. You can also link accounts by selecting "View all accounts" from your Accounts tile, then choosing "Add account" > "Link an account."
- A list of popular financial institutions will appear. You can click on any of the names showing or type the name of your bank or credit union into the search bar.
- You will then need to provide the credentials for the non-Civista account and click Continue. If your other financial institution requires multi-factor authentication, you will be prompted to supply more information to complete the login.
- Once connected, your non-Civista accounts will appear on your home dashboard.
What if I need to update my login credentials for a linked account?
- You can update your login credentials by clicking ‘Update login’ from that account tile or by going to ‘Manage Accounts’ option under ‘Settings’ and selecting ‘Sync Manager’. Click the three vertical dots on the account to open the options menu and update your login.
- Enter your updated credentials, then click Continue.
Can I add other assets to the Financial Tools?
- Yes, the tools allow you to manually link accounts and assets. This can be especially helpful for viewing your net worth by including assets like your house or car.
- To add an account, navigate to Manage Accounts’ option under ‘Settings’ and select and ‘Add account’ and choose ‘Create a Manual Account’.
- Note – some account types will trigger additional fields. For example, choosing a loan under account type will generate fields for financial institutions and APR.
Can I conduct transactions on my accounts at other financial institutions within the Financial Management Tool?
No, your linked accounts are view-only; however, you are able to see their account balances and transactions. You will not be able to initiate any new transactions on these accounts from the Financial Tools. You can link savings and checking accounts at other financial institutions via the Manage External Accounts tool for external account transfers, located under the Transfer menu.
My transactions are categorized incorrectly. Can I change their category or description?
- Yes, you can. Within the Account Details page, you can click on a transaction to modify its category, add a sub-category or change its online description. You can even split a transaction into multiple categories for more control over your budget.
- Note that changing the description only changes the description within your digital banking and will not be reflected on statements.
My transactions aren’t categorized. Can I add a category or description?
If your transaction is uncategorized, you can add a description and category for an accurate view of your accounts using the same method as above.
