Direct Deposit is a free service that automatically deposits recurring income into any Wells Fargo checking, savings, or prepaid card account you choose. Income you receive from your employer, Social Security, pension and retirement plans, the Armed Forces, VA Benefits, and annuity or dividend payments may all qualify for Direct Deposit.

Benefits

  • It's convenient. Free up some time by having your money automatically deposited into your Wells Fargo account.
  • It's fast. You have same-day access to your money on the day of deposit.

Customers with Direct Deposit can also take advantage of our automatic Overdraft Rewind® feature. If we receive an electronic direct deposit by 9:00 a.m. local time, the bank will automatically reevaluate transactions from the previous business day and may reverse overdraft or returned item, non-sufficient funds (NSF) decisions, and waive or refund associated fees.
