Direct deposit has always been the easiest way to get paid. But setting it up? Not so much. It’s been anything but direct between paperwork, employer runarounds, and outdated processes.
Thankfully, Utah First is constantly coming up with ways to make your financial life more convenient. Our do-it-yourself direct deposit feature has changed the game, making direct deposit faster, easier, and way less of a headache!
Forget the old-school forms and phone calls. With Utah First, you can set up or change your direct deposit with just a few easy clicks from your computer or phone. Our process is fast, easy, and completely secure — the way direct deposit should be.
Here’s how it works:
Easy as that!
Making changes to direct deposit is also amazingly convenient. You’ve got the freedom to distribute different dollar amounts into different Utah First accounts, which means you can split your paycheck among checking, savings, and money market accounts, for example, at any time.
You deserve the convenience and flexibility of managing your paycheck on your own. Not only do we give you that, but we also save you the hassle of making extra money transfers between accounts every month.
The coolest part of all this? Utah First is one of the first financial institutions in the country to introduce this innovative way to automate and personally manage direct deposits. It’s given you, our members, more control over your finances while improving the overall Utah First banking experience.
Here’s what our CEO has to say about our unique feature:
“Our direct deposit process is simple to use. It saves our members time and makes saving money and managing finances easier than ever. We’re always trying to go the extra mile for our members to make their banking experience better. This is just another example of Utah First putting people first and staying on the cutting edge of industry technology to benefit our members.”
We believe in keeping things local while delivering the best tech possible, which is why we teamed up with Atomic, Salt Lake City-based leader in payroll technology and direct deposit services. It’s another way Utah First is putting Utah first and connecting members with their community.
Direct deposit is an essential part of managing your money. Utah First members enjoy a quick, convenient setup process that lives up to its direct deposit name.
