With Direct Deposit, your pay is electronically deposited into your bank account, giving you quick access to your money.

Active employees: Access Direct Deposit in the portal

  3. Enter a routing and account number. We recommend verifying these numbers with your bank, as routing numbers on bank statements and deposit slips are often invalid for direct deposit. If this information is incorrect, your paycheck may be delayed.
  4. Identify the account type by choosing Checking or Savings.
  5. Select Remaining Balance for Deposit Type. If you only have one active account or you have mutilple accounts, you must select Remaining Balance on one account. 
  6. Leave Amount/Percent blank if you want your entire check in one account.
  7. Click Save. For changes to apply to your next paycheck, they must be saved the day before payroll is processed. See the payroll calendar for processing dates. Note: You will only be able to save your changes once a day. If you need to save again, you must do so after midnight.

Split your direct deposit into multiple accounts

When setting up direct deposit, you can set up more than one account to receive a specified amount of your paycheck. 

Please note: Procurement disperses travel reimbursements to the deposit type marked Remaining Balance. If there is not an account coded Remaining Balance, it will disperse to the account set to the highest percentage.

  1. To change the amount per account, click Edit for the account you would like to change.

Keep your information safe

Many online scams attempt to access a user's direct deposit information. Use caution when you receive emails asking you to update your direct deposit. Always access the employee portal through your browser rather than an email link. CU provides additional security measures when a direct deposit account is viewed or updated.

  1. All but the final four digits of account numbers are masked. For example, the account number 12345678 will be displayed as XXXX5678.
  2. When a direct deposit account is added, users will recieve an alert within the employee portal in addition to a confirmation email.
  3. If a user designates a bank not in CU's list, they will receive an alert message to contact Employee Services.
