E-Deposit is a free service that allows you to make your check deposits immediately through Home Banking, Webb-It 24®. It is a safe, secure, and convenient way to make check deposits without having to visit a credit union office, stand in line, or wait on snail mail. With E-Deposit you will be able to deposit up to $3,000 in checks online and have access to your deposit immediately.
To use E-Deposit you first have to have a PEFCU Checking Account that is in good standing and access to Home Banking, Webb-It 24.
Once you have been qualified for E-Deposit you will simply need to follow these simple instructions:
1. Select the E-Deposit tab in Webb-It 24 Home Banking, then select deposit and enter your checks. Your Deposit Sequence Number is important – be sure to write this number down.
2. Record your Deposit Sequence Number on the front of your pre-addressed & postage paid envelope, and enclose items to be deposited.
3. Mail your deposit to PEFCU for arrival within 10 calendar days of your online deposit. When you need more envelopes, order directly by clicking on “Order Envelopes” – we will send you a supply out the day we receive the request. Or, simply print from inside E-Deposit on one of your envelopes. However, this option does not include the postage.
To monitor the status of your online deposit click on “Deposit Details.” Once the check has been received by PEFCU, it will be removed from E-Deposit and will no longer appear on the deposit detail page. At this time the amount deposited will be freed up so you can make more deposits.
Note: If you forget to record you Sequence Number you can still get the number before mailing your checks by reviewing your transaction history. Simply click on the Account of your E-Deposit and view the Sequence Number beside your transaction.
Endorsement
Your endorsement is important. Proper endorsement is required and recommended for your safety. Sign the back of each check before your deposit it.
PEFCU also recommends you include “For Deposit Only” written underneath your endorsement. “For Deposit Only” is considered a restrictive endorsement and protects you in the event your check falls into the wrong hands.
