Go Direct^™

Direct deposit is safer, easier and more convenient than getting a paper check in the mail. Yet despite the advantages, many people who rely on Social Security, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and VA Compensation and Pension payments still get checks.

Go Direct^™ is a campaign sponsored by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve Banks to motivate people who receive federal benefit checks to use direct deposit. Click Here to Go Direct^™.

Account Backup & Overdraft Privilege

Get the peace of mind of knowing your check and electronic transactions are covered with SMCU's Account Backup and Overdraft Privilege

• Account Backup can automatically transfer funds from your SMCU savings or Money Market account into your checking account to cover a transaction saving you from the headache of a returned check or electronic transaction.
• Overdraft Privilege protects you if you accidentally overdraw your checking account. When you opt in to Overdraft Privilege, instead of rejecting the transaction, SMCU may draw your account negative to make sure your transaction isn't returned. You can also opt-in to have Overdraft Privilege cover your everyday debit card and ATM transactions.

Wire Transfers

SMCU can help you transfer money from your account to an account at another financial institution. Wire Transfers are faster and more secure than sending checks or money orders. In many cases the funds are available the same day.
