Manual Direct Deposit Setup

If direct deposit is set up manually (account and routing number) instead of through Plaid, there is a delay in authorization with the bank, which can take about 24 hours. An employee may be paid via Check instead of Direct Deposit if this was set up within 24 hours prior to payroll being submitted.

Next steps

Look for an onboarding link that will be sent to you by When I Work. Completing this in a timely manner ensures that we have accurate information and that you get paid on time.
