  • It only takes a few minutes to easily switch any Direct Deposit from an external account to your CU1 account. Plus, with CU1 Early Pay, you can get paid up to two days earlier when you set up Direct Deposit.

    First, enroll or log in to Digital Banking. On a mobile device, select “Menu” on the bottom right of your screen, the “Services” heading in the menu that appears on the left, and “Setup Direct Deposit” in the “Services” drop-down menu.

    If you are manually entering your Direct Deposit details, you need to type in your depositor and which CU1 account or accounts you want to move the Direct Deposit to (you can split the deposit between CU1 accounts) before reviewing and submitting your switch.

    If you are using Switch Assist, you will be directed to log in to your profile with another financial institution to connect the external accounts of your choice. We will review your accounts to find potential Direct Deposit transactions, which takes about two minutes. Select one of your Direct Deposit transactions, press “Continue,” choose the CU1 account or accounts you want to switch the Direct Deposit to, and review and submit your Direct Deposit switch.
