What is Direct Deposit?

less than a minute read

Direct Deposits are defined as: Recurring Automated Clearing House (ACH) credits, including payroll, pension or government payments (such as Social Security) made by your employer or an outside agency. Direct Deposits do not include peer to peer payments, transfers from one account to another, cash advances, ATM deposits, or wire transfers. Transaction codes are set by payor and business-to-business, and business-to-contractor may be excluded, dependent on the transaction code set by payor.
