Get Paid Early
Start celebrating your payday up to two days early1 when you setup direct deposit with your Flex Checking Account. Members 1st delivers your early payday by making your money available as soon as your employer deposits it – which is often up to two days before most other banks make the funds available to you.
How to get Paid Early
1. Download and fill out the Members 1st Direct Deposit Form.
2. Deliver the completed form to your employer's Human Resources or payroll department.
3. Await the delivery of your first early paycheck, it's that easy.
1 Faster access to funds is based on a comparison of traditional banking policies versus Members 1st Credit Union’s policy of releasing paychecks as soon as they’re received from an employer. Additional speed may be attributed to electronic deposits versus paper check deposits. Direct Deposit and earlier availability of funds are subject to timing of payer’s funding.
Direct Deposit

Income received from your employer, Social Security, pension and retirement plans, the Armed Forces, VA benefits, and annuity or dividend payments may all qualify for Direct Deposit.

ConvenientYour money is deposited automatically into your Members 1st account, ready for you to use immediately.
FastDirect Deposits post the day we receive them from your employer rather than waiting for the 1st or 15th, meaning you may receive your paycheck 24-48 hours sooner than at other financial institutions.
