How long does it take to set up direct deposit with chime

How long does it take to set up direct deposit? Setting up direct deposit can take anywhere from one day to a few weeks, depending on the provider. This wait period applies every time new employees are added to the system.

It's fast — Chime claims you'll get paid two days earlier than scheduled because the fintech company doesn't hold the funds as other banks may. Plus, it's convenient since you don't have to wait for a paper check and go to the bank to make a deposit.

Remember, you need to do an ACH push into your Chime account to trigger the direct deposit requirement. This means logging into your non-Chime bank account, linking Chime to that account, and pushing the money into Chime all from that external account.
