Direct deposit is simply a way of having payments you normally receive by check sent directly to the credit union, and automatically deposited into an account of your choice. You don’t have to make a trip to our lobby to cash or deposit checks.

Almost any type of payment you receive on a regular basis can be directly deposited to your accounts.

  • Your payroll check if your employer agrees
  • Social Security
  • Civil Service
  • Military Service
  • Pension Checks
  • Retirement
  • Stocks & Savings Dividends

To sign up, you will need to contact the sender (i.e. your employer, social security, etc.) and give them your account number and the Routing and Transit number, which is 241-283-945. You can also download our Direct Deposit Form.

Payroll Deduction

Payroll deduction can put money into your savings account, your checking account, or any other deposit account from your paycheck. You can also have your loan payments made directly from your payroll deduction. You decide what amount you want sent to the credit union and how much to each account- you can even have money deposited into accounts for your spouse or children.

With payroll deduction, you save frequent trips to the credit union. Gasoline and your time are valuable- payroll deduction can save both for you!

Early Pay

We can deposit your payroll, retirement, or Social Security check up to two days sooner with Early Pay!*

Have you ever noticed your paycheck in your pending ACH transactions days before pay day? That’s part of the direct deposit process: your employer submits your deposit information, it’s sent to the Federal Reserve Bank, then sent to us where it waits to be deposited on pay day.

We now have the option to post these pending direct deposits to your account up to two days in advance, and you can decide when you want to deposit your paycheck early!

*Preauthorized ACH credits received by CPFCU may be available to credit to accounts as soon as two business days prior to the scheduled posting date. If the ACH originator does not submit the information ahead of time, CPFCU will be unable to make these deposit funds available early. In this case your deposit will be posted on the scheduled posting day. CPFCU is not responsible for fees or  penalties resulting from transactions in advance of an early ACH credit posting.
