## Overview

### Key benefits of Plaid

 Plaid’s Auth solution enables the authentication of accounts for ACH without the need for microdeposits, allowing the instant authentication of transfers.&#10;&#10; The Balance solution can be used to pull both historical and real-time balance data before transfers are made, including current and available balance information, to prevent overdrafts and non-sufficient funds (NSF) fees.&#10;&#10; Bank data, including names, addresses, and phone numbers, can be used to verify user identities with the Identity solution, with the aim of reducing fraud.&#10;&#10; Historical transaction data for the past 24 months can be accessed using the Transactions solution, with contextual information including category, merchant, and geolocation data.&#10;&#10; The Assets solution can be used to verify borrower assets using financial data from borrowers’ bank accounts, and generate reports in both JSON and PDF formats.
