ACH payments get put on a 5-day hold for processing once initiated. CSG will send an email confirmation that the ACH has been initiated. 

 

What is Plaid?

Plaid is a financial tech company that acts as an intermediary link between your bank account and the CSG Customer Portal. When you link your bank accounts to an application that uses Plaid, Plaid takes the account logins you provide, encrypts the financial data requested (such as account routing information), and then supplies it to the application with a secure connection. Plaid obscures your login data to protect you, only sharing the information that you choose. 

 

Is Plaid Safe?

CSG understands the concern about allowing access to their bank accounts, and with good reason. Everyone wants to keep their finances secure. That is why CSG chose Plaid. Plaid’s privacy policy states that they will never sell or rent personal information, and they only share data with the companies you’ve allowed permission.  Plaid also takes care to ensure that your information stays secure from attempts from malicious parties to access and steal access. 

Plaid relies on data encryption, cloud infrastructure, multi-factor authentication (MFA), 24/7 monitoring, and independent security testing to keep your data protected.
