Are there fees associated with mobile deposits?
Mobile deposits are free for members making deposits to their eligible accounts. Charges for returned deposits and other transactions are outlined in the Fee Schedule.
Is my financial information safe with mobile deposits?
Yes. The mobile deposits feature is offered through our Mobile Banking app, which requires you to provide a unique Access Number or username and password each time you sign in.
Is there danger of fraud while using mobile deposits?
We require each item to be endorsed with the signature of the payee and the phrase “For Mobile Deposit Only at TOPCU”. This way, checks deposited using mobile deposits can’t be deposited again at a TOPCU branch or another financial institution. The mobile deposits approval process also includes a review of each deposited item and automatically detects duplicate deposits.
When will deposited funds be available in my account?
Items transmitted using this Service are not subject to either the funds availability requirements of Federal Reserve Board Regulation CC or TOPCU’s funds availability schedule contained in the Important Disclosures booklet. Below is our general funds availability schedule for this Service:
| If you submit your deposit within the below timeframes: | Up to $225 is available: | Remaining funds of deposits up to $5,525 are available: | Remaining funds of deposits between over $5,525 are available: |
| Monday-Friday, prior to 4:00pm CT | After the deposit is approved | Second Business Day after day of approval | Seventh Business Day after day of approval |
| Monday-Friday, after 4:00pm CT Saturday-Sunday | After the deposit is approved | Third Business Day after day of approval | Eighth Business Day after day of approval |
| Federal Holiday | After the deposit is approved | Third Business Day after day of approval | Eighth Business Day after day of approval |
You will only receive one (1) $225 credit per Business Day, even if you deposit more than one check using the Service. Deposits made on weekends or Federal Holidays are considered received on the next Business Day, but as a member service you will receive the $225 credit upon approval of the earliest deposit. For example, if you make one deposit on Saturday, one on Sunday, and another on Monday, you would still only receive one (1) $225 credit on Saturday, as all three deposits would be considered received on Monday.
