Some banks have increased their security measures to protect your financial information and require verification with each connection attempt. Due to this change, you might be asked to complete a multi-factor authentication (MFA) with each account refresh in Quicken Simplifi.

While we understand how frustrating this may be, this process is in place to protect you and your account information. We don't have a way to prevent these requests. We do, however, have a way to reduce or turn off account updates in Quicken Simplifi for frequent MFA banks. Learn more by clicking here!

Note: Some financial institutions offer the option to disable the additional security measures, such as turning off multi-factor authentication (MFA), but you'll need to contact your bank directly to confirm if possible.
