Here’s How it Works:

1. Your employer submits payroll.
Your employer sends payroll instructions to their bank. Then, we get an alert that your paycheck is on its way.

2. You get paid early.
As soon as we get the payment alert, we’ll deposit money into your account. This means you can access your funds up to two days early.

3. Your coworkers get paid later.
Most banks pay their customers after they process the paycheck. In other words, your coworkers will get paid up to two days later.
