Here’s the full thread
My Credit Karma account does not link to www.fidelity.com. It only links to Fidelity Investments & Retirement (nb.fidelity.com) which is different than www.fidelity.com. Fidelity Investments & Retirement does not update until the next day. Thus, it is useless in a net worth app.
My Empower account stopped linking to www.fidelity.com on 2-14-24.
Will www.fidelity.com ever link to Credit Karma and Empower?
www.fidelity.com used to link to Mint.com. Mint.com is no more unfortunately.
Thank you.
Hi, @huskyduck.
It’s important to know that Fidelity continuously works with security experts and regulators to find ways to make customer directed account data sharing more secure. Fidelity has established a secure, integrated connection that better controls how customers can connect the third-party apps they use to their Fidelity accounts. Fidelity is requiring all these third-party websites, applications, and data aggregators to adopt this integrated connection to access our customers’ data.
It is with our customers’ financial well-being in mind that any third-party applications, websites, or data aggregators that do not utilize our secure, integrated connection will be prevented from accessing Fidelity customer data. Our goal is for Fidelity customers to use their favorite apps safely and securely.
