Direct Deposit FAQs

I updated my information using the Direct Deposit Switch tool, but my paycheck was deposited to my old account. What do I do?

In most cases, your next paycheck will be deposited to your Texans account after you update your information. However, in some cases, the change may take 1-2 payroll cycles to go into effect. This is dependent on your employer or payroll provider's payroll cycle.

I am moving my direct deposit to Texans from a different financial institution. Do I need to take any additional steps?

If your previous direct deposit was with a different financial institution and was set up to deposit a specific amount of your paycheck, you will need to cancel the previous specific amount deposit through your employer or payroll provider. If your previous direct deposit was set up to deposit your entire paycheck or a percentage of your paycheck, you do not need to take any additional steps.

I'm having issues logging in to my payroll account. What should I do?

If you are having issues logging in to your employee or payroll account, please contact your employer's HR department or payroll provider's Support team. For your privacy and security, Texans does not have access to your login information.

Can I split my direct deposit between multiple Texans accounts?

Yes, you can. Simply select the percentage of your paycheck you'd like deposited into your first account and click Confirm. Then repeat the process between as many accounts as you'd like. Remember, the total of the percentages you select must add up to 100%.

How do I update my direct deposit to go into my Texans account?

After you've logged in to your payroll account, select the Texans account you'd like your direct deposit to be made to, then select the amount of the deposit you'd like to go into that account. You can choose to deposit your entire paycheck, a certain percentage, or a specific amount. Once you've made your selections, click Confirm and your request will be automatically completed in seconds.

Does the tool give Texans access to my payroll account?

No, it does not. The Direct Deposit Tool is designed to protect your privacy and only allows access to update your direct deposit to your Texans account. It does not allow access to any of your employment, financial, or personal information.

How do I find and log in to my payroll account?

Within the Direct Deposit Switch tool, you have the option to search by your employer or payroll provider. After you've made your selection, log in with your employee or payroll information by following the on-screen instructions.

1 To receive up to $300 for the direct deposit bonus, enroll your direct deposit through Texans’ Direct Deposit Switch tool and receive a total of $3,000 or more each month in Qualifying Direct Deposits over a consecutive 3 month period into your Texans checking account. Texans will deposit $100 into your checking account after the first month in which a total of $3,000 or more in Qualifying Direct Deposits is received; $100 after the second month in which a total of $3,000 or more in Qualifying Direct Deposits is received; and $100 after the third month in which a total of $3,000 or more in Qualifying Direct Deposits is received. A Qualifying Direct Deposit is defined as deposits from an employer, payroll provider, benefits provider, pension, or the government (such as Social Security) via an ACH deposit. External ACH transfers not from employers, verification or trial deposits from financial institutions, peer-to-peer transfers from services such as PayPal, Zelle, Cash App, or Venmo, mobile check deposits, cash loans or deposits, and any deposit which Texans Credit Union deems to not be legitimate are not considered Qualifying Direct Deposits. Limit one $300 bonus payout per membership and per checking account. Accounts at Texans must be in good standing (no past due or overdrawn accounts) at the time the bonus is credited. Bonuses are considered interest and will be reported to the IRS as required. This offer can change at any time without notice.

2 After you update your direct deposit information, the change may take 1-2 payroll cycles to go into effect. This is dependent on your employer or the payroll cycle for the provider.
