- How do I transfer funds between another financial institution and my ECU account online? You can utilize the External Transfer option using eBanking online or the eBanking App to transfer funds from another financial institution to your Extra Credit Union account and vice versa.
Before you can complete a transfer, you must add the other financial institution as a verified payee. To do so, follow these steps:
- Log in to eBanking online
- Select Transfers from the left-side menu.
- Then select +External Transfers.
- Put in your eBanking password.
- Add new payee by entering the routing number and account number of your financial institution.
- Extra Credit Union will send two small deposits to the account at your other financial institution within 1-3 business days.
- Once you see the deposits, return to External Transfers to enter the amounts and click confirm.
Once these simple steps are complete, you will be able to move money back and forth as you need from the Transfers section in the left-side menu.
