Why Early Direct Deposit is a Win for Our Members

With Early Direct Deposit, you can receive your paycheck earlier than your regularly scheduled payday. When your employer gives us noticed that your paycheck is being transmitted to us, we make those funds available in your account, rather than requiring you to wait until the actual direct deposit transaction is processed. You need your funds available as soon as possible, so you can focus on the things that are most important to you in life. When you know your funds are ready and available in your account to pay bills, pay rent or buy groceries, you can handle your business, then get back to enjoying life. Early Direct Deposit can also help you avoid potential late fees on transactions because you’re waiting for funds to process into your account. When you have a financial need, you can just handle it with less stress and less worry.
