Banking Information

Use this option to establish or change a bank accounts direct deposit information for a payee account or a payee subaccount. The payee account, subaccount, and the financial institution must be established before bank account information can be associated to an account. Additionally, you must have been granted access to the payee accounts and have been granted banking privileges. You will have the ability to modify both domestic and international banking information (if applicable). All banking requests are required to have supporting documentation attached to the request.


If you are a new recipient, you will need to obtain access to the Payment Management system prior to providing your banking information. If you already have access to the Payment Management System you will need to submit a request to update your privileges in PMS to add the role “add/update banking” prior to submitting banking information.
