How do I change my primary bank account?

To use our lending products, you will need to connect an external bank account as your primary bank account. The primary bank account should be the account that holds the majority of your business revenue as this will be the account Bluevine uses to determine the amount of your current and future credit lines. 

For your convenience, this article outlines the following processes.

• Adding a New Bank Account
• Connect Your Bank Account Using Plaid
• Changing Your Primary Bank Account on Your Bluevine Dashboard

You will first need to connect your bank account in the External Accounts tab within your Bluevine Dashboard. We use secure third-party services, Plaid and Yodlee, to connect bank accounts.* To connect a bank account, follow these steps:
