Need Your Money Before Payday?
ACH On-Demand
Sometimes life doesn't wait until payday. With ACH On-Demand, eligible members can choose to post certain pending ACH deposits to their account before their scheduled posting time for a $10 Instant Access Fee.
This convenient feature is available for qualifying pending ACH deposits, including:
- Payroll deposits
- Social Security benefits
- Tax refunds
- Other eligible ACH credits
If your deposit is already pending in our ACH warehouse, you can choose to access those funds early. Once posted, the funds are immediately available for use.
How ACH On-Demand Works
Using ACH On-Demand is simple:
- Log in to Online Banking or the Mobile App.
- View your pending ACH deposits.
- Select Post Now next to the eligible deposit.
- Accept the $10 Instant Access Fee.
- Your funds become immediately available.
This service is also available with assistance from a Member Service Representative or Teller at any Circle FCU branch.
At that time the pending ACH deposit is posted, the funds are immediately available. If there are any distributions tied directly to this deposit, those will post early as well.
Other Details
- ACH On-Demand Posting is available to all members. There is no age requirement.
- This feature can be done with any pending deposit.
- Funds must be pending in the ACH warehouse to post early.
- If there are any distributions tied directly to the deposit, those will post early as well.
- Any automatic funds transfers (AFT) will happen at their normal scheduled time.
- This feature can be done in branch with a Member Service Representative or Teller, on our mobile app, or through online banking.
