All trademarks are the property of their respective owners. Earned cash back will be credited to your BankMobile checking account within ninety (90) calendar days from the time the qualifying transaction has been posted to your BankMobile checking account. 2 Funds from payroll-related direct deposits may be made available up to two days early. Early access to payroll deposits applies to the direct deposit of funds from your employer. Employer direct deposits vary and, as a result, it is not possible to guarantee early access to your pay. Factors that will affect this include the sender’s deposit description used and the timing of their submission of deposit. In order to provide this service, we generally post such details on the same business day we receive the notice that the deposit is scheduled, which may be up to two (2) business days earlier than the payer’s scheduled payment date. In general, benefit checks (direct deposit or otherwise) from the federal or state government will not be eligible for early access based on the parameters we use. As an example, benefits that generally would not receive early access include but are not limited to unemployment, retirement, pension, civil service, railroad retirement and veteran’s payments. 3 Allpoint® ATM location, availability, and hours of operations may vary by merchant and is subject to change. © 2026 BM Technologies, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of First Carolina Bank, Member FDIC and Equal Housing Lender.
