Online Banking and Mobile App Resources Intuit Desktop Help

If you use Intuit desktop applications such as QuickBooks or Quicken, the new security feature will allow you to authorize specific connections between your Intuit desktop app and your accounts, while adding two-factor authentication to your account. When the security feature is enabled, your connection from the above-referenced applications will no longer connect, and you must follow the steps on this webpage to reestablish the connection.

Note: This only applies to users who are using the desktop application and does not apply to online products such as QuickBooks Online.

1. Connect your bank account by setting up a bank feed in the Intuit® or Quicken® application.
   
   a. Find the option to set up a bank feed in the application.
   
   b. Find West Michigan Community Bank, enter your online banking credentials in the application and follow all the steps provided.
   
   Note: This action initiates the session for your application. This initial connection fails with a generic error message. The error is expected, and you may continue to the next step.
