Overview

U.S. Bank allows you to grant access to your accounts by creating a Shared Access user. This is done through U.S. Bank Business Online Banking, where you can:
  • add a new user with their own login credentials
  • choose which accounts they can access
  • define what they are allowed to see and do, such as viewing balances or initiating payments
You will be setting up a user that can securely access account data and initiate transactions without sharing your primary login.

Important notes

If no account access is assigned, the user will see no data.
Business profiles cannot grant Shared Access to an existing username; a new profile must be created using the user’s email address and phone number. A phone number is required because digital banking cannot be used without one on file. The invitation expires in 72 hours.
Use one user per account if separate connections are required.
