Option 2: Payroll Deposit

For those who receive regular payments like paychecks or benefits, adding your payroll deposit is a convenient option. This can be done by setting up your Direct Deposit inside the Cogni mobile application. By setting up direct deposit with Cogni, you can enjoy the added benefit of accessing your paycheck up to two days early as well. Here you will find two options to get started:

• Connect Your Payroll Provider: Select to Auto Enroll in the Direct Deposit section inside the Cogni Mobile Application, and easily connect with your payroll provider. Here you will be able to choose from popular employers, common payroll providers (e.g. ADP, Workday, Gusto, Justworks), and known gig-economy services (e.g. Doordash, Uber, Lyft).  And finally, you will be able to set how much you want deposited into your account, whether it is a full or partial paycheck deposit.

• Share Your Routing and Account Numbers: These can be found in the Cogni Mobile Application under your account details.

  1. Provide Information to Your Employer: Give your Cogni routing and account numbers to your employer or the entity issuing your payments.

Receive Your Funds: Once set up, your funds will be automatically deposited into your Cogni account on payday.

Early Pay Eligibility: If you have two direct deposits of $300 or more over a rolling 30-day period, you can qualify for early pay, which allows you to access your paycheck two days earlier than the scheduled date.

Depositing money into your Cogni account is designed to be seamless and flexible, catering to your financial needs with ease. Choose the option that best suits you and enjoy the convenience of managing your funds with Cogni.
