  • Test Deposits – sending and verifying test deposits to and from the external financial institution to ensure a successful connection. This can take between 3 – 5 business days to complete.
How long does it take to process an account transfer?

Are there any fees associated with External Transfer?

There are no fees for a standard scheduled incoming or outgoing transfer.

What should I do if I transfer money to the wrong account?

If the transfer has not been processed, you can cancel or edit the transfer if it is in a pending status. Once the transfer is successfully cancelled, schedule a new transfer to the correct account. If you have a problem with a transfer that has been processed, please reach out to us immediately.

What is a repeating transfer?

This is a recurring, automatic transfer of a specified amount of money from one account to another based on a schedule that you set up. For example, you may want to set up a repeating transfer to automatically transfer $500 from an external bank account to a First Utah Bank checking account at the end of each month. When you set up a transfer schedule, the transfers are automatically scheduled for the duration you choose or until you cancel the repeating transfer. If a scheduled transfer date falls on a weekend or holiday, that individual transfer will default to the previous business day.
