Pass-through FDIC insurance

M1's disclosure, read on September 5, 2026, describes FDIC pass-through coverage, deposit insurance through partner banks. Coverage depends on customer identification and recordkeeping. It protects eligible deposits when a partner bank closes, not the app company itself. An app closure does not trigger that protection. The visible disclosure and notes provide the programme’s specific conditions.

Summary

M1 is not a bank. M1 says customer money is held at B2 Bank National Association, with insurance reaching customers as pass-through FDIC insurance at the partner bank, subject to the app's recordkeeping. We read this information in the app's own public disclosure on September 5, 2026, and this page quotes that disclosure below. You can check each partner bank's own page on this site.

Current commentary

As of September 5, 2026, M1 was not itself a chartered bank. Customer money sits at B2 Bank National Association, which carries letter D compared with banks of similar size on this site. Federal deposit insurance reaches customers through that partner bank, provided M1 records identify each customer. Coverage is $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, for each account ownership category.
