Top Tips: How to link your bank account with BuildMyCreditScore

Here are our top tips on the easiest way to link your bank account with your BuildMyCreditScore card:

1. Uninstall and Reinstall Your App. We recommend doing this as it can refresh the app and the way your phone redirects you following the bank linking. It also ensures that your app is fully up to date.
2. Download your bank’s mobile app and make sure it’s up to date. We recommend linking your bank using a smartphone device with your bank’s mobile app installed and updated. This can help make the process faster and smoother.
3. Make sure to complete the linking journey twice. The first step is to confirm that you agree to share details with BuildMyCreditScore so we can link your account. The second step sets up the Direct Debit used to pay for the transactions you authorise on your BuildMyCreditScore card. You'll be redirected to your bank to confirm each step, make sure you agree each time to successfully link your bank account. 
4. Check the account you're trying to link. We ask that you link your main current account to your BuildMyCreditScore card, the account that you use for your daily spending. You can check out the full list of banks which we support by clicking here.
