    1 Monthly service fees can be waived if certain conditions are met. For MidFirst Bank's LiveFree Checking, the monthly service fee can be waived if you enroll in eStatements.
    2 Early access to direct deposit funds is a free feature that you must opt-in to in cuAnywhere, and depends on the timing of the submission of the payment file from the payer. We generally make these funds available on the day the payment file is received, which may be up to 2 days earlier than the scheduled payment date. Standard fraud prevention restrictions apply. If your deposit doesn't arrive early, expect it to arrive on your scheduled payday. Not all direct deposits qualify.

    2 At TTCU Federal Credit Union, receive Early Pay with approved credit. Some restrictions apply. Direct deposit and earlier availability of funds are subject to payer’s support of the feature and timing of payer’s submission of deposits. We generally post such deposits on the day they are received which may be up to two days earlier than the payer’s scheduled payment date. Exceptions may apply.

    2 At First Fidelity Bank, the timing is dependent upon when your payroll provider submits their payroll file. As soon as we receive the file, we will post the funds within two business days of scheduled payday, but we do not have control over when the file is sent. For many companies, the date the file is sent may vary by a day or two from pay period to pay period based on holiday or weekend schedules. For some pay periods, your direct deposit may show up earlier than others, but it will never be later than your regular payday.

    2 At MidFirst Bank, Early Pay requires eligible direct deposit to your MidFirst account. Direct deposits eligible for Early Pay include transactions that MidFirst can reasonably determine as employment compensation or government benefit payments. When a payer, such as an employer, submits payment files to MidFirst before the scheduled payment date, MidFirst may generally make funds available up to two days earlier than the scheduled payment date. Timing of access to these funds is dependent on the payer’s payment instructions, how the transaction is coded, and the timing of submission of payment files to MidFirst from the payer. Timing of available funds may vary between payment periods. MidFirst does not guarantee that you will receive early access to eligible direct deposits. You should confirm your Available Balance before attempting to make a withdrawal or purchase. Nonpayroll and tax payments may not be available for Early Pay. We may cancel Early Pay at any time and without notice. You may cancel Early Pay at any time by contacting your MidFirst personal banker or by calling us at 888.MIDFIRST (888.643.3477). Early Pay is not available for MidFirst payroll direct deposits to MidFirst Bank accounts. New accounts must be opened for 30 days to be eligible for Early Pay.
