Tips for a Smooth Wire Transfer

  • Double-check recipient details to ensure accuracy and prevent errors.
  • Confirm the fees associated with the transfer with your bank before initiating the transaction.
  • Be aware of processing times, especially for international wire transfers, which may take longer due to differing time zones and intermediary bank processes.

The cut off time for both incoming and outgoing same day wire transfers is 1pm MST.

The main differences between wire transfers and ACH transfers are speed, cost, and how they work behind the scenes:

Wire transfers typically arrive in the recipient’s account within the same business day if initiated prior to the 1pm cut off time, while ACH transfers typically take 1-3 business days to reach the recipient. They batch up transfers and process them at specific times throughout the day. While there is no fee for incoming wire transfers, outgoing wires typically have a fee of $20 for domestic and $40 for international. Wire transfers go directly from your bank to the recipient’s bank, using a secure messaging network, ACH transfers travel through a central hub called the Automated Clearing House. They gather with other transfers and batch them for processing.

To confirm that your wire transfer has been received and posted, you can reach out to our member service team via phone, email or chat or log into your account via online banking to see if the funds have been deposited. We will also send you a receipt.
