This is a regulated system, introduced by the Competition and Markets Authority. You’re always in control – you can disconnect your account at any time. We only use your data for this process, and can't access other information from your bank. For full details, see our Privacy Notice and Privacy Policy.

Open Banking uses strictly-tested software and security systems. Plus, we'll never ask you to share your login details with us.

FCA

We’re regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, as required for all Open Banking providers. Find us on the Financial Services Register.

OBIE-regulated

We’re listed in the Open Banking Implementation Entity (OBIE) directory.

This confirms our authorisation to provide Open Banking services.

Manage your connection

Manage your connection

For your account security, we'll ask you to re-authenticate the connection between your external account and Tide every 90 days.

If you don't do this, the information from your other bank will stop syncing to Tide.

Reconnect your account

You can re-authenticate any time after the connection expires.

Select the Reconnect option from your Tide Membership account, and we'll take you to your banking provider's secure portal to complete the steps.

You can also disconnect your account from us at any time – just contact your bank and they'll help you with this.
