# Reconnecting Your Bank Account

## Bank account reconnection—why, when, and how to keep your bank connected to Outmin

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for reconnecting your bank account within your Outmin dashboard. If you need to connect a brand new bank account, please see our separate article: ["How to connect a bank account to Outmin."](https://go.outmin.io/help/connect-your-bank-to-outmin?hsLang=en)

To start, log in to your Outmin account and select “Bank” from the side menu. Here, you’ll see all previously linked bank accounts. Find the account you want to reconnect and click “Reconnect.”

You’ll be redirected to Plaid, our secure financial integration partner. On the Plaid screen, click “Continue” and enter your online banking credentials. Once you're done, you’ll automatically return to your Outmin dashboard. Refresh the page, and you’ll see your reconnected account displayed.

### Why is this necessary? 

To comply with European Banking Authority (EBA) regulations, Outmin requires you to re-authenticate your bank connection every three to six months, depending on your banking institution. 

### **How will I know when to reconnect?**

You will receive an email from us a few days before your account is due to be disconnected, and then weekly follow-up emails once your bank account is disconnected. 

A "Reconnect" button will appear in the relevant's bank account card **5 days before action is needed**. If your bank account is already disconnected, we will also tell you the last bank sync date: this means we have not received any bank transactions since that date, and can no longer process your accounts.

This button will remain on your Outmin account until you've reconnected the account. 

### Quick steps to reconnect:

- Go to "Bank" in your Outmin platform 
- Locate the red "Reconnect" button displaying on the relevant bank account card
- Click it and follow the on-screen instructions to finish the process
