TD Bank Group (TD) and Plaid have entered into a North American data-access agreement. The deal will enable TD customers in Canada and the US to more securely connect to and share financial data with Plaid’s data network of over 8,000 + apps and services.

TD customers will be able to access applications and services on Plaid’s network through application programming interfaces (APIs). Using APIs offers TD customers greater data security and privacy, eliminating the need to share login credentials with third parties.

Some examples include joining the Financial Data Exchange (FDX) in 2018. This helps promote solutions that better protect customer data and support an API-based technology protocol. In 2020, TD entered into a data access agreement with Mastercard’s US open banking arm, Finicity. This laid the groundwork to move towards customer-authorised data sharing using APIs.

And then in 2021, TD joined the Akoya Data Access Network. This enables US-based customers to share data with fintechs and aggregators without sharing logins and passwords with third parties. Also in 2021, TD partnered with Envestnet/Yodlee in a data access agreement. This enables customers to connect their TD accounts to popular financial management, payments, wealth, and small business applications powered by the Envestnet | Yodlee financial data aggregation platform.
