Connecting your bank account to Loop

Before you can start exploring all the Loop has to offer, you'll need to connect your external bank account to Loop via your Connected Bank Accounts Settings page - it only takes a few moments.

Step-by-step instructions are available here:

How to connect your bank account to Loop

If your account does not automatically verify, it means one of the following actions need to take place:
If the email address you used to create your account with Loop is different from the email address you use with your connected bank account, you will need to proceed through an additional verification step. Please check the email address that is associated with your connected bank account for an email from Loop. This email will guide you through a one-click verification process.
In some cases, additional verification measures may be required. If this is the case, you will receive an email from Loop with details on uploading your bank statement to your Loop account.

Adding Loop Cards

Whether you are using Loop's pre-funded card, or a card with a credit limit, your process for adding a new card is simple.

Loop offers two types of cards: virtual cards and physical cards.

Virtual Cards: best for online payments such as digital ads and recurring subscription fees. Creating virtual cards is free, and there are no limits on the amount of virtual cards you can make.

Physical Cards: best for taking your card into the real world. Your first two physical cards are included for free, any physical cards in excess of two are billed at $5/card.

Step-by-step instructions on setting up your first card are available here:

How to create a card

Note: Loop does not automatically send you a physical card when your account is registered. If you would like a physical card, simply add one through your account dashboard and it will be sent to you.
