Early Payday

With payroll direct deposit, you may be able to get paid up to two days early!1

How it works:

Your employer sends payroll instructions to the Federal Reserve.

Instead of making your money available to you on that date, we make it available to you as soon as we receive that notification from the Federal Reserve, up to two business days early.1

1 Funds from payroll-related direct deposits may be made available up to two days early. Early access to payroll deposits applies to the direct deposit of funds from your employer. Employer direct deposits vary and, as a result, it is not possible to guarantee early access to your pay. Factors that will affect this include the sender’s deposit description used and the timing of their submission of deposit. In order to provide this service, we generally post such deposits on the business day we receive notice that the deposit is scheduled, which may be up to two (2) business days earlier than the payer’s scheduled payment date. In general, benefit checks (direct deposit or otherwise) from the federal or state government will not be eligible for early access based on the parameters we use. As an example, benefits that generally would not receive early access include but are not limited to unemployment, retirement, pension, civil service, railroad retirement and veteran’s payments.

Tax Refunds:

A quick, safe, and secure receipt. By electing to have your tax refund deposited electronically to your BankMobile Checking or BankMobile Savings Account, you can receive it quickly, safely, securely – and up to three business days early.2
