Benefits Of Direct Deposit

25. January 2019 Administrator Blog (0)
In the age of emails, online banking, e-statements and mobile applications; the direct deposit system offers a convenient & fast mode of transferring payments. Direct deposit refers to an Automated Clearing House transaction in which payments are electronically transferred into one’s checking or savings account. The payments usually include pay checks, pensions, travel reimbursements, social security payments and more.                                                                                                                                                                         

Following is a list of benefits that direct deposit has to offer:

  • Easy To Set-Up: To activate direct deposit, inform your employer and fill out a direct deposit form. You will need your credit union account number, routing number and a voided check of the account in which you intend to receive the payment.
  • Fast And Convenient: With direct deposit, you are not required to wait in lines to deposit or cash a pay check. Your money is easily deposited to your account even when you are away on a business trip or vacation.
  • Good For The Environment: Direct deposit is environment-friendly as there is no paper involved.
  • More Secure: Direct deposit is a safe and confidential method of receiving payments. It reduces the chance of anyone sneak-peeking into your financial information as the funds are transferred discreetly into your account. Also, it eliminates the chance of your pay check being lost or stolen.
  • Digital Storage Of Financial Information: Online modes of payment like direct deposit have eliminated the need to keep a tab on your payroll history. You can easily access your financial information as it is digitally saved.
  • Facilitates Savings: Direct deposit makes you better at budgeting and saving. You can split the incoming payments between your checking, saving & retirement account. This set-up encourages savings. Also, it gives you time to pause and reflect on the expenses for a better budgeting.
  • Automatic Bill Payments: As you know when the payment will be directly deposited in your account, you can schedule automatic bill payments accordingly to avoid the hassle of remembering due dates.
  • Saves Costs And Energy: A lot of time and expenses are saved by relying on direct deposit for making payments. Preparing payrolls involves writing, signing, folding, delivering checks and expenses incurred on envelopes and checks. Sometimes checks have to be re-issued if lost or stolen. Direct deposits reduce such costs and channelize the energy of human resources towards more productive tasks.
  • Flexibility: Direct deposit is not just limited to pay checks but can also be used for expense reimbursements, unemployment benefits, receiving income tax returns, travel and cash advances, etc.
Greater Central Texas Federal Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative that operates for the common benefit and welfare of its member-owners. For more information on direct deposits, visit 3305 E. Elms Rd., Killeen, TX -76542 or call at (254) 690 – 2274.
