Adulting Tip 💡
Setting up direct deposit is one of the easiest financial wins. Your money goes directly into your account automatically, helping you avoid delays and making it easier to budget, save, and stay on top of your finances.
Early access to payroll funds depends on the timing of the submission of the payment file from the payer. We generally make these funds available on the day the payment file is received, which may be up to two (2) days earlier than the scheduled payment date.
