Convenience

Direct deposit eliminates the need to physically deposit a paycheck or visit a branch, saving time and effort. The funds are automatically deposited into your account, making it convenient and hassle-free.

Faster access to funds

With direct deposit, your funds are usually available immediately on the day of deposit. This allows you to access your money sooner and eliminates the risk of delays associated with paper checks.

Enhanced security

Direct deposit reduces the risk of lost or stolen checks. By eliminating the physical transfer of funds, it provides a more secure method of receiving payments.

Cost savings

Many credit unions offer free or low-cost checking accounts to Members. By using direct deposit, you can often avoid fees associated with cashing paper checks or maintaining a minimum balance.

Automatic bill payments

Direct deposit enables you to set up automatic bill payments, ensuring that your bills are paid on time without the need for manual intervention. This helps you avoid late fees and maintain a good credit history.

Splitting your deposit

Direct deposit allows you to allocate your funds to different accounts automatically. You can divide your paycheck into multiple savings accounts or contribute to an emergency fund, retirement account, or other financial goals without any extra effort.

Environmental sustainability

How does it work?

It can take a few days to set up Direct Deposit. Once the business depositing your money has your information, they enter it into their banking system. Once set up, money is electronically deposited into your account at midnight on the payment date.

Get early access to your money

With Direct Deposit, you do not need to wait for checks to clear to access your money. Once deposited, it is available for your use immediately. Employers often provide electronic pay stubs to those who opt for Direct Deposit, so you will have access to the same information typically found on a paper check.
