How can I set up automated transfers to my bank account?

Auto Transfer allows you to set up automatic transfers of the funds from your Pay Portal to your bank account — so that you can set it and forget it!

In order to set up Automated Transfer, you will need to have a bank account linked to your Pay Portal.

To set up Auto Transfer in your Pay Portal:

1. Click on Transfer in your menu

2.Under Actions: select Create Auto Transfer

3. Select Confirm

  • If you have at least one bank account saved in your Pay Portal, you will see them listed here. If you do not yet have any saved bank accounts, you can add one by clicking on Add New Transfer Method.

Auto Transfer Advanced Options:

Advanced Auto Transfer options allow you to split transfers between 2 or 3 different bank accounts, as well as configure a minimum transfer amount.

  1. Select Transfer in your Menu
  2. Under Actions select Create Auto Transfer
  3. When in the Auto Transfer page, Select the Advanced tab 
  4. Select the account under Transfer Method and set the % field to the right. The total for all chosen Transfer destinations must equal 100%


For example, you can choose to have 60% of your incoming payments go to your card while the remaining 40% goes to a bank account.

Note: Under Additional Options you can choose the frequency of your Auto Transfer. You can choose either daily or monthly. If you choose monthly, you can select the date on which the first Auto Transfer is to take place.

Tip:

  • If you would like your incoming payments to be forwarded to your bank account as quickly as possible, select the daily Auto Transfer frequency.
  • Auto currency conversion. If you get paid in a different currency than the currency used by your Transfer destinations, select the currency in which you get paid here. This will ensure that the funds arriving in your Pay Portal are converted and transfer in your local currency. Please refer to your cardholder agreement for applicable fees
  • Minimum Auto Transfer amount. For example, you can set your account to only perform a transfer once you have accumulated a minimum of $100 in payments.

 

Please note: All Auto Transfer destinations selected must use the same currency. This means that you may not, for example, set one of your Auto Transfer destinations as a USD bank account and another as a CAD bank account.
How can I update automatic transfers to my bank account?
To update Auto Transfer to your bank account:
  1. Click on Transfer from the menu.
  2. Under Action click on Update Auto Transfer for the specific account.
  3. You will now see the details of your Auto Transfer configuration on the Transfer page, along with the options to either Edit or Disable your Auto Transfer.
Can I choose to be paid using traditional paper checks?

Yes.

With Power Pay, you now have the option to receive your commissions via paper check which will be delivered to you in the mail. You can set up your account to have your check delivered to you automatically every time you get paid, or you can log in and submit an individual request each time you would like to receive your payment by check.

Here are the key points you should know about paper checks:

1. Availability – Checks are available for residents of all U.S. states with the exception of New Mexico, Massachusetts, Nevada, and Oklahoma.

2. Shipping Time – Checks should arrive at your address within 5-7 business days from when the request was submitted. If you choose to set up automatic payments by check, the request will be made on the day you receive payment from Public Power.

3. Cost – There is no cost to you for requesting paper checks.
