Using Payroll Direct Deposit from Altura Credit Union
The Benefits
Here are some of the top benefits of payroll direct deposit through Altura Credit Union:
- Early Availability: Altura Credit Union gives you early access to your direct deposits. Depending on your payroll provider, Altura may deposit funds up to two days before your payday!
- Instant Deposit: With electronic payroll deposits, your money shows up in your account faster than in-person deposits.
- Instant Access to Funds: You don’t have to worry about check holds with Altura. Your money is instantly available in your account!
- Loan Discounts: When you sign up for automatic payments, you receive a 0.5% discount on Altura loans.
- Courtesy Pay: Not having overdraft protection on your account can put you in some tricky situations. But Altura will automatically pay your checks and debits up to a certain amount to cover you until your next paycheck.
- Automatic Savings: By signing up for payroll deduction you can split your direct deposit between accounts. This helps you automatically save for holiday gifts, vacations, or other purchases.
- E-Alerts: When you enroll in online banking, you can put your account on autopilot. Our e-alert program sends you emails and texts to let you know when your direct deposits come in and how much they are for.
- Security: Electronic deposits help protect you from losing your checks or becoming a victim of theft.
- Free Service: Best of all, there is no fee to set up payroll direct deposit!
