Insurance route
Pass-through FDIC insuranceRaisin's disclosure, read on October 2, 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
Raisin is not a bank. Raisin does not hold customer funds. Bell Bank and Starion Bank act as custodial banks: they hold each customer's funds in custodial accounts and move them to the banks and credit unions the customer selects through Raisin. Your savings deposits sit at the bank or credit union you select, and deposit insurance applies there, as FDIC insurance at a bank or NCUA insurance at a credit union, through pass-through coverage that depends on the app's records identifying each customer. This was read from the app's own public disclosure on October 2, 2026, and the page quotes that disclosure below. You can check each custodial bank's own page on this site.
Current commentary
Raisin is not a bank itself. Customer funds move through custodial accounts at Bell Bank (letter C) and Starion Bank (letter C) to the bank or credit union each customer selects. The savings deposit and its FDIC insurance are at that selected institution, not at Bell or Starion. As of October 2, 2026, coverage is up to $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, for each account ownership category, provided the app's records identify each customer.
Partner banks
2 banksBank deposit totals
The figure is the share of total bank deposits above the $250,000 federal insurance limit, reported quarterly to the FDIC. High shares are normal for banks holding large app program balances. They do not mean your balance is uninsured: pass-through insurance usually covers customers individually at the partner bank. Across US banks in 2022 to 2026, those above roughly 36% saw large quarterly total deposit declines more often than those below. Most banks above that level saw no such fall. This measures deposit movement and does not predict trouble for any bank.
