What Well does with your Ally Bank connection
Connect
Connect Ally Bank over Plaid: you authenticate with Ally Bank through Plaid's secure connection, so your bank login never reaches Well; Well holds only a read-only connection it cannot use to move money.

Well brings account, transaction, and balance in from Ally Bank on a recurring poll that fetches only what changed since the last read. The first sync backfills history in the background and the connection stays live after.
Enrich
Well resolves each Ally Bank entity into workspace account, bank transaction, and cash position, assigns categories, and links every record to an audit trail across the rest of your connected tools.
Available
Your data from Ally Bank lands in the workspace as workspace account, bank transaction, and cash position you can search, chart, and automate.

Frequently asked questions about Ally Bank and Well
How do I connect Ally Bank to Well, and how long does it take?
From Well, open Connections, find Ally Bank, and click Connect. Well links Ally Bank through Plaid: you authenticate on Ally Bank's side in Plaid's secure flow, and Well receives a read-only connection. Your Ally Bank login never reaches Well. The handshake takes about a minute, and Well starts importing accounts, balances, and transactions right after.
What does Well pull into the workspace from Ally Bank?
Well brings in account, transaction, and balance from Ally Bank and reshapes each entity into your workspace: account becomes workspace account; transaction becomes bank transaction. Every record arrives with the source identifier preserved, so Ally Bank stays the source of truth while Well lets you query the data alongside the rest of your stack.
What does Ally Bank unlock once it is connected to Well?
Once Ally Bank is connected, every record it exposes is queryable from conversation, filterable in records tables, and available to your agents through your workspace. The data stays linked to its Ally Bank source, so you can always trace a workspace record back to the original.
How does Well match an account from Ally Bank to a workspace account in my workspace?
Each Ally Bank account is scored against the candidate workspace accounts in your workspace on identifier overlap, amount or quantity match, date proximity, and counterparty resolution. Matches above the auto-link confidence threshold flow through cleanly; below the threshold they queue for a one-click human review, with the most likely workspace account prefilled and the Ally Bank source attached.
How often does Ally Bank sync with Well, and what triggers a refresh?
Well polls Ally Bank regularly for account, transaction, and balance. The first connect pulls the historical window your account allows; subsequent reads only fetch what changed since the last sync, so the load on Ally Bank's side stays modest.
Can I disconnect Ally Bank and what happens to the data Well already pulled?
Open Connections > Ally Bank in Well and click Disconnect. Well drops the Plaid connection immediately and stops reading from Ally Bank; you can also revoke Well from your Plaid dashboard. The account, transaction, and balance Well already imported stay in your workspace by default; ask Support to purge them if your compliance flow requires it.
