Transfers - External Transfers

Connect to your external Checking Accounts and make payments to your Eglin FCU loans and credit cards with this feature. Please note: You MUST have an established Eglin FCU credit card or loan for this option to be made available to you.

Initial Setup

To begin you will need to establish a connection to your account(s) at your other financial institution.
Follow these steps to do so:

Log into your account via the app or browser. If you're on the Mobile App, navigate to "Services" and select "External Accounts". For Online Banking, go to the "Transfers" tab and choose "External Transfers". Initially, you won't see any active accounts on the External Transfers page. To link accounts from other financial institutions, click "Add Account". You'll need to identify your other financial institution by its routing number, phone number, or name, and provide your account number there. You also have the option to rename the account for display purposes. After entering all necessary details, click "Continue". Within 2-3 business days, you'll receive three small deposits in your external account. Once received, log back into your account and return to the External Transfers section. Your account should now be listed there. Click on the prompt to verify, and enter the three deposit amounts. Click "Confirm" to complete the verification. Please note, you won't be able to use these accounts for external transfers until you've verified the three deposit amounts. After successful verification, your external Checking Account will appear on the external transfers page of Online Banking and in the transfers section of the Mobile App.

Making an External Transfer

Once the process for connecting your external Checking Account is complete, you may request a trasnfer of funds from that account to your Eglin FCU credit card or loan (external transfers to your Eglin FCU mortgage are not currently available).

If you are using the Mobile App, simply transfer the funds from your external account to your Eglin FCU loan or Mastercard from the Transfers section and select the frequency, date and amount you wish to transfer. You will then need to agree to the terms and confirm the transfer. Please note it may take several business days for the funds to transfer from your external account.

To make an external transfer via Online Banking, start by selecting "Request" to access the "Request Money" page. Choose your external Checking Account under "From" and the Eglin FCU loan or credit card under "To". Select the frequency, date and amount you wish to transfer and submit the transfer. You will then need to agree to the terms and confirm the transfer. Please note it may take several business days for the funds to transfer from your external account.
