Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

If your daily account balance falls below $500, you won't earn dividends until your daily balance again reaches $500.

If your balance falls below the minimum of a tier, you’ll earn dividends at the rate of the tier that matches your account balance. For example, if you move from the third tier to the second tier, you’ll earn dividends at the rate associated with each tier for the days that your balance fell within those tiers.

It depends on whether your IRA is a share or certificate account. If you have an IRA share, you can add money to your account whenever you like, up to your personal IRA contribution limits. If you’re unsure about your contribution limits, check with your tax or financial advisor.

If you have an IRA certificate, once you open the certificate, you can’t add money to it until its term ends. However, you can preschedule a transfer, so you automatically add money to the certificate as soon as it “matures” (its term ends). You have a 10-day grace period after your certificate matures to add money or transfer your balance to another account. After the 10 days, we’ll automatically re-deposit your balance into another certificate of the same term.

In all cases, it’s your responsibility to make sure you don’t deposit more into your IRA accounts than the current tax law and your personal income limits allow. If you’re unsure about your contribution limits, check with your tax or financial advisor.

It depends on whether your Coverdell ESA is a savings or certificate account. If it’s a savings share, you can add money to the account whenever you like. Your beneficiary is eligible to receive a total of $2,000 in Coverdell account contributions each year, from all sources.

If you have a Coverdell ESA share certificate, once you open the certificate, you can’t add money to it until its term ends. However, you can preschedule a transfer, so you automatically add money to the certificate as soon as it “matures” (its term ends). You have a 10-day grace period after your certificate matures to add money to it or transfer your balance to another account. After the 10 days, we’ll automatically re-deposit your balance into another certificate of the same term.

In addition to cash, you can deposit the following through an ATM: personal checks, money orders, traveler's checks, rebate checks, and insurance checks. Foreign checks or foreign money orders can’t be deposited through an ATM. Generally, the payee(s) should endorse all checks on the back only. Failure to endorse these items correctly may result in the deposit being reversed from your account.

In addition to depositing through an ATM, you can also use mobile deposit to deposit checks to any share. In the mobile app, simply endorse the back of the check, and in the mobile app, snap a picture of the front and back of your check and follow the prompts. You’ll see a drop-down menu to select where you want to deposit the check and complete the process. It’s worth noting that some checks may have a box to check on the back for mobile deposits. If it doesn’t, make sure to include the words “For Mobile Deposit Only at PSECU” below your signature.

Setting up direct deposit with PSECU is quick, secure, and easy. Here’s how it works:

• Information needed. You’ll need your employer’s or payroll provider’s name and login credentials from your payroll provider.
• Three easy steps
  1. Select your employer. Search for your employer from the Pinwheel database, which has over 2 million options.
  2. Log In securely. Enter your payroll account credentials to securely connect your payroll information with PSECU. Don’t worry. This process is safe. Pinwheel takes security just as seriously as we do. From the moment you enter your payroll details, your information is protected with top-notch security. This step makes sure that your paycheck goes to the right place.
  3. Confirm your details. Choose where your money should go and how much of your paycheck you want directly deposited (full or partial paycheck) and the share(s) you want your funds deposited to - checking, Regular savings, additional savings, money market, or a combination, whatever works best for you.

Direct deposit typically becomes effective within one to two pay cycles, depending on your employer’s processing time. It’s important to note that your information is protected throughout the process, ensuring that your direct deposit is set up both securely and privately.

Pinwheel is a third-party application vendor that we’ve collaborated with to provide you with a digital, paper-free way to manage your direct deposit.

Yes. PSECU is federally insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). Information on federally insured credit unions can be found at NCUA.gov.

All PSECU deposit shares, including checking, Regular, additional savings, money market, and certificates, are federally insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) up to $250,000, the maximum allowed by law. In addition to the $250,000 of insurance provided on an individual account or combination of individual accounts, funds are also insured up to $250,000 for any combination of accounts members hold jointly with other individuals.

We make your deposited funds available to you on the same business day that we receive your deposit. Once the funds are available, you can withdraw them or access them in digital banking.

We get it. All this jargon is similar, so it can be confusing to know what each term refers to. So, let’s break it down:

• Payroll deposit: A payroll deposit typically refers to an employee’s entire paycheck being sent to an account at a financial institution. It’s the full amount of your earnings.
• Payroll deduction: This term describes when a portion of a paycheck is automatically allocated for specific purposes like tax deductions, retirement contributions, health insurance, or other benefits. These amounts are taken out of your gross pay and sent directly to the appropriate agencies.
• Direct deposit: On the other hand, “direct deposit” is a broader term that covers any amount of money from any source that’s electronically deposited into an account. These could be payroll deposits, tax refunds, government benefits, or other payments.

It’s important to note that while our Pinwheel service - what we call direct deposit service - is designed to handle payroll deposits, it can’t be used for non-payroll deposits such as tax refunds. For those types of deposits, you’ll need to set them up directly with the issuing agency.

Yes. To do so, direct deposit will need established at both PSECU (using Pinwheel) and your other financial institution.

You can deposit into any ATM that accepts deposits. If you're using an ATM and a deposit option doesn't display on the screen after you insert your card, the ATM owner doesn't participate in deposit sharing, which means you can’t deposit into your PSECU account from that ATM. If the machine accepts deposits, follow the instructions as they appear on the ATM screen. We recommend selecting Yes when asked about receiving a receipt.

Yes, you can typically use both a debit card and a credit card at an ATM. Keep in mind that using a credit card at an ATM (called a cash advance) may result in additional fees and higher interest rates, so it's generally recommended to use a debit card for cash withdrawals.

You can access your PSECU account at ATMs around the world. To find one on your travels, use Allpoint’s locator or the Visa® Global ATM Locator. Please note that not all ATMs found in Visa’s Global ATM Locator are surcharge free.

Yes! Most digital wallets like Apple Pay®, Google Pay™, and Samsung Pay® are compatible with PSECU debit cards. To add your PSECU debit card to your digital wallet:

• Open the digital wallet app on your smartphone.
• Look for an option to Add Card or Add Payment Method.
• Scan the front of your debit card with your phone’s camera or manually enter the card details.
• Follow the prompts to verify your identity, if needed.
• Once verified, your PSECU debit card will be added to your digital wallet and ready to use!

Your contactless card contains an embedded antenna that securely transmits information to the payment reader. When you pay, tap your card within 1-2 inches of the contactless symbol on the payment reader. A checkmark, green light, or audible beep will indicate that your transaction is complete.

You have complete control of where your direct deposit will be distributed and how much you want directly deposited - full paycheck or partial paycheck. You can choose to deposit your full paycheck into one account, or you can split it between multiple accounts. For example, you can allocate a percentage to your checking account and another portion to your savings share or money market account.

Yes. To do so, direct deposit will need set up in each individual account in digital banking. Be sure to select “partial portion” when allocating funds to each account. It’s important to note that a direct deposit can only be made to an account where the payee on the check is the account owner.

While Pinwheel is designed specifically for payroll deposits, other non-payroll deposits may need to be set up separately with the respective provider. Non-payroll deposits may include tax refunds, government benefits, dividend payments, pensions, annuities, and child support.

If you don’t see your employer listed in the Pinwheel database, don’t fret! It’s possible that your payroll provider isn’t directly connected with Pinwheel yet. If you’re unable to find your employer, Pinwheel will prompt you to complete a direct deposit form that can be downloaded as a PDF and provided to your employer.

If you can’t remember your payroll login credentials, you’ll need to reset them through your employer’s payroll provider. Most systems offer a “Forgot Password” or “Forgot Username” option to help you recover your login information. Once you have your credentials, you can continue with the direct deposit setup.

After you complete your setup in Pinwheel, a success screen will appear at the end of the process confirming your new direct deposit preferences. Additionally, you’ll see the change reflected in your account within one to two pay cycles. You can always check your account to confirm that your funds are being deposited as expected or confirm with your employer.

If you have 100% of your paycheck allocated to other financial institutions and it's split between more than one of them, you won't be able to use Pinwheel to set up or adjust your direct deposit with PSECU. To make any changes if you’re in this situation, you’ll need to contact your payroll administrator directly. They’ll be able to help you adjust your payroll allocations to include PSECU.

To discontinue a direct debit or automatic payment, you must contact the company that is sending the item and request that they discontinue the process. They may require the request to be received within a specific timeframe. You must comply with their request to have the debit/payment discontinued. PSECU cannot stop the process on your behalf.

Once you’ve fully complied and completed all necessary steps in the company’s discontinuation process, you must monitor your account one full billing cycle to be sure the company has successfully completed their end of the process. If the transaction still processes after you’ve waited the required timeframe, please immediately contact PSECU to discuss the issue at 800.237.7328, extension 2530.

Select Transfers, then select External Accounts. Select the external account that you need to verify, and then select Verify Account. Enter the amount that was deposited to your account at your other financial institution and follow the screen prompts. Once you add your external account and complete verify the account, you will not need to do it again, unless you remove the external account and want to add it back again.

If you enter the wrong amount when verifying your external account, the screen displays a message, “The deposit verification process is currently locked on your account." You will need to call us to resolve the issue.

To make regular recurring deposits, you must be one of the following on the child’s account: primary owner, joint owner, or the custodian.

Collateral Protection Insurance (CPI) is an insurance coverage program designed to provide insurance to members who do not have, are unable to obtain, or fail to provide proof of auto insurance to PSECU. This program allows the member to file claims for physical damage to or theft of their vehicle. This insurance is provided for an additional premium that will be added to the member’s loan balance. This premium will be refunded if/when adequate insurance proof is provided for the timeframe in question. Note: this insurance does not provide coverage for bodily injury or property damage liability.

Our Overdraft Protection Transfer Service lets you link your checking account to your Regular savings, money market or other shares, or Visa® loans or lines of credit and use those funds available. That means that if you try to spend more than you have in your checking account via check, ACH transaction, or bill payer, we'll automatically transfer funds from the linked account.

We don’t charge a fee for setting up Overdraft Protection Transfer Service. The transfers are free between your PSECU checking, savings, money market accounts, and other shares. However, if you choose to use a credit card to protect your checking account from being overdrawn, those overdraft transfers are considered cash advances. Refer to your credit card agreement for fees and charges related to cash advances.

On top of saving money by not paying an Overdraft Protection Transfer Service fee, having a backup plan for when your checking account is low lets you avoid returned checks or service fees from payees. Please note: While the above guidelines apply to most members, Overdraft Protection Transfer Service is not available for custodial accounts and may not be available for some other specialty account types.

It's easy to enroll - simply follow the instructions below:

• Log into online banking.
• Click the drop-down menu at the top left.
• Under Transfers, select Overdraft Protection.
• Select which options you'd like to be used as your overdraft protection and click Confirm.

Overdraft protection transfers will occur in the order specified under Current Options. You can click the Add or Remove buttons and use the up and down arrows to change the order. Your available options will depend on what account types you have open with us, such as savings shares and credit cards.

We have a variety of products and services that pair perfectly with your checking account.

• Savings shares. A Regular savings share is the cornerstone of your PSECU account. But in addition to your Regular savings, you can open up to five additional savings shares with no minimum balance requirement. You can then rename these shares to keep your money organized in the way that works for you.
• Money market account. The more you save, the more you can earn with dividends that grow alongside your balance. Increased earnings can begin with as little as $500¹ in your account.
• Certificates. With terms from 3-60 months, you can safely and easily grow your money. You can open a new certificate and earn the advertised rate with just $500².

¹Rates and information are subject to change at any time. Fees could reduce earnings on the account(s). The disclosed dividend rates are variable and may change after the member opens the account(s). Money market accounts require a minimum of $500 to earn dividends. For consumer accounts, view Truth in Savings Account Disclosures.

Business Accounts: Business money market accounts require a minimum of $2,500 to earn dividends.

²If your withdrawal plus penalty takes the certificate below the required minimum $500 balance, your certificate will be closed and the penalty will be calculated on the entire balance.

Yes. Co-applicants should apply with you when you open your credit card account. We’ll need current identification, and income and contact information for all applicants.

If you just want to add an authorized user, you can do that, too. For instance, you might add employees or your business manager to your account as authorized users. These individuals are allowed to use your business credit card account but aren’t legal account owners.

Yes, if you initiated the call. Even if you did not authorize the charge and are calling a merchant to inquire why they charged your account, the merchant may ask for your name, address, or other identifying information. If they cannot locate the charge using this information, you may want to offer your card number. Some merchants are able to locate a transaction by your card number. This will help them to explain the charge and resolve the problem. Always contact PSECU if there is a problem because we may have additional advice or suggestions.

We recommend against giving your card number or other personally identifiable information during a call you did not initiate. The call could be an attempt at identity theft.
