How do I add an external bank account for A2A transfers?
You can set up account-to-account (A2A) transfers in digital banking. All you need is a checking account with us, and your digital banking login information for the other financial institution.
How to add an external account
- Log in
- Open the Payments tab
- Click the Bill Pay & External Transfers (or Bill Pay, P2P & A2A online) button
- Select the Member Number* you would like to transact with and click Proceed
- Open the Transfers (or Transfer Money online) tab
- Click the ADD EXTERNAL ACCOUNT button
- Complete the One-Time-Passcode (OTP) verification
- Search for and select your financial institution*
- If you don't see your financial institution, scroll to the very bottom and click the Can't find your bank? Enter account details button (this process will take 1-2 business days to connect the account)
- Follow the prompts to connect your account
Once you connect an account, it will be available for incoming and outgoing transfers in this same area of digital banking (Payments > Bill Pay > Transfers).
*There are over 1,000 financial institutions you can connect for instant transfers. If your financial institution isn't available, you can add it manually. This process involves two small deposits being sent from us to your external bank account that may take 1-2 business days to appear. After you confirm the deposits, you'll be able to interact with the account and transactions typically take up to 2 business days.
