JPMorgan and Plaid Renew Data-Sharing Deal With Per-Access Fees

The pricing move tests open-banking access during the CFPB’s rewrite of its data-sharing rule.

Overview

  • The renewed agreement introduces a pricing structure for Plaid’s API pulls from Chase, replacing the prior no-fee arrangement.
  • People familiar with the terms say the charges are fractions of a cent per data pull, though the companies did not disclose specifics.
  • Plaid says it will absorb the new costs, keep pricing for roughly 7,000 fintech and bank clients unchanged, and maintain customer connections to services.
  • Both firms committed to technology upgrades after Chase reported 1.89 billion third-party data requests in June that strained its systems.
  • Industry groups criticized the fees and highlighted uncertainty as the CFPB revisits its Section 1033 rule, which previously would have barred such charges.
