Safe to link accounts in personal capital? I am little worried about hacking and such

Nah you’re fine. Your info has probably been leaked at this point anyway

Lol, thanks for the assurance 😂 Just worried if they will save the username and password during the link process

Nah just direct access to government agencies

Huh? Don't quite follow you

Aren’t all of these finance apps just use Yodlee? Your credentials are most likely just pass through to Yodlee. Personal capital is not storing any of that.

Thanks! Planning to take a leap of faith and link my accounts :)

After I signed up with them I started getting random deposits of $40k-$50k in my checking on Saturday nights, so I would recommend it.

You’ll be fine. Probably. (Source: I’ve done it and so have millions of others, if you include Mint. We’re okay so far...)

It's safe.. they don't store your username and password.. its all done through yodlee which is trusted by all the banks themselves..
