1. Direct deposits and other Automated Clearing House (ACH) credits may post to your account up to five days early with the Early Pay service. The Early Pay service is dependent upon when the deposits are originated from the sender and received by the Credit Union, and we cannot guarantee deposits will post prior to their anticipated settlement date. The Credit Union is not responsible for delays in posting due to unforeseen circumstances. The Credit Union, in its sole discretion, may determine whether certain deposit payments, deposit types, or member accounts are excluded from the service. The terms and conditions for Early Pay are subject to change, at any time, without advance notice. Not applicable to business, loan, or mortgage accounts.
