For rental applicants
Connect your bank to verify your income
Asked to show proof of income? Connect your bank through Plaid instead of sending statements.
Read-only: no one can move your money · No one can see your password
Your details
Thanks, your bank information is in
We've received your report and closed the bank connection. We'll be in touch about the next steps.
Have accounts at another bank?
How it works
Three steps, and you stay in control of what you share.
Fill in your details
Your name, email and phone, and the address of the home you applied for.
Sign in to your bank and choose your accounts
You sign in inside the window of Plaid, a service lenders and apps use to connect bank accounts, then pick your chequing, savings, credit card and loan accounts. Plaid gathers 12 months of history.
We get your report
Zola receives your balances and transactions by email, and the bank connection is closed right away.
Quick answers
Before you connect.
Is this safe?
You sign in to your bank inside Plaid's window, so Zola never sees your password. The connection is read-only, so no one can move money, and we close it as soon as your report arrives.
What does Zola see?
The accounts you choose, their balances, 12 months of transactions, the names on the accounts, and credit card and loan details where your bank provides them.
Who sees my information?
Zola and the owner of the home you applied for, only to assess your application. We look at income together with your credit check, rental history and references, never on its own.
Do I have to connect my bank?
No. You can email your last 12 months of statements to info@zolapropertymanagement.com instead.
Can I connect more than one bank?
Yes. When the first one is done, choose Connect another bank.
