Connect a Bank Account to Receive ACH Payments - Manual

By providing your bank routing and account numbers, you can securely designate the account which should receive payments from your general contractor.

  • You must be a company Admin to take these steps. If you need this role, you can request it from any current Admin. To review role definitions, see Company User Roles.
  • If you are making a change to an already-linked bank account, no future payments can be issued until the general contractor reviews and approves the new information.
Note: This method relies on you entering your bank account information and responding to a micro deposit; it can take 1-2 business days to receive it in the bank account you set up.

If you want to link your bank account more quickly by signing in to your bank's website, see Connect an Online Bank Account to Receive ACH Payments.
