Direct Deposit
Don't stand in line every payday just to deposit your paycheck. Instead, take advantage of CFCU's Direct Deposit service and save time by having your entire paycheck, less the usual deductions, automatically deposited into your Chevron Federal Credit Union account. Direct Deposit is a free service to all members.
Sign up for Direct Deposit
IMPORTANT: Instead of just your member number, you must use your 14-digit CFCU account number (found in the MICR line of your CFCU check) to authorize electronic debits or credits to your account. Please click here to find out how to establish your 14-digit CFCU account number.
Direct Deposit Benefits
- Your funds are available immediately, even if you can't visit a branch.
- You can immediately withdraw cash at any Chevron Federal Credit Union branch or any CFCU or network ATM each payday.
- You can start earning dividends sooner on your deposited funds.
- Your paycheck cannot be lost or stolen.
How Direct Deposit Works
On your payday, your employer will provide you with a pay stub, and that same day the amount of your paycheck, less the usual deductions, will appear on your CFCU member statement. If you ever need to verify a deposit, simply call our 24-hour Telephone Access Service or log onto PC Access. It's simple and easy.
Payroll Deduction Service
CFCU's Payroll Deduction Service lets you conveniently and automatically arrange to have specified amounts allocated from your paycheck to separate CFCU Savings and loan accounts. With our Payroll Deduction Service, you'll:
- Never miss a loan payment.
- Maximize the amount you save with regular deposits into your savings, checking, IRA or other CFCU accounts.
- Conveniently allocate your deposit among several CFCU accounts.
