eTransfer Recommendations
Contact your financial institutions and ask for their ACH Routing Number. Although you can look up a financial institution on the service, using Wells Fargo as an example, their bank listing is enormous! By contacting your financial institutions directly you ensure that the correct information is set up and that the test transactions will post correctly.
When you set up a transfer the "request Date" is the date that you wish the processing to begin. Be sure that the funding account has the necessary funds to cover the transfer request to avoid a NSF Fee being charged.
Cut-off time is 12:00 noon for a transfer request to be considered the same business day. Transfers requested after 12:00 noon are considered the next business day.
Set up your financial institution's account information as soon as possible so that when you are ready to make a transfer all of the validating steps are out of the way, thus avoiding an additional 2-business day wait.
Transfers, dependent on when initiated (before same day cut-off, or after same day cut-off) take 3 to 4 business days to post to the receiving financial institution.
