Does Square support “Chime?” Bank account

[Quaaludetooth]

PayPal supports Chime, and only transactional accounts are supported by PayPal, the same criteria for Square. So why is Square refusing to link with a Chime account?

Yeah I use my Chime account with no issues

@Quaaludetooth I'm sorry that you're not able to use Chime with Square. Online-only accounts are not supported at this time and I'll share this request with the appropriate team. In the meantime, you'll need to link a brick and mortar bank account to receive deposits from Square. 

This Support Center has more information the requirements to link a bank account to Square. If online-only accounts are supported we'll update the Support Center, and we'll update this thread too!

This is something that needs to change. Especially considering Square itself is an alternative to brick and mortar banks. B&M banks are obsolete and are ripping customers off left and right. It's tragic I should be forced to stay with Chase just to use Square and it makes me reevaluate if Square is the right choice for me

I was able to add Chime to my Square as normal. This is on Mar 5 2019

So you used a chime checking acct. And square verified it for instant deposits? I want to open a new bank account but only with a bank that square works with.

I have to update my comments. I was able to use Chime for both my regular and instant deposits. I forget the process but I have had zero problems since.

[miixdon]

so were you able to move your money from square to your chime account ?

How long did it take?

@bennash How long did it take?

[AshleyK]

@CLee unless Chime has become a brick and mortar account, you should not be able to link it to your account at all for instant deposit. It's possible that @bennash used the Square Card at a Chime ATM to withdraw funds instead.

Chime works with Square.  Takes 5min to setup the account. I was able to deposit right away.

@miDevice I have no problem depositing to chime. The question is whether we may do an instant deposit which I’m under the impression we can not with Chime. 

[RayRay]

There instant deposit is tow days later except if you can get there square card thin and only thin you will get the deposit right thin

This was posted in 2018. It is now 2020. Has there been a solution to this?

Hi @RayRay thanks for posting. We still do not support online only banks, so while you may be able to link your card, it is expected behavior that the card will continually unlink/unverify as it is not officially supported. 

Please let me know if you have any other questions. I'm happy to help!

[tothepointe]

I find it ironic that an "online only" credit card processor doesn't support an online-only bank.
