Remote Deposit Capture (RDC)
Remote Deposit Capture, or RDC, is a way to make deposits to your account using your smartphone camera and our CFDCU Mobile app. The ability to make deposits is part of a recent app update, so if you don't see that option, you'll need to update your app to the latest version.
Important Points to Remember
Make sure that the check has been properly endorsed 'For Remote Deposit Only. Account # _______." Failure to do so could result in the check being rejected
Deposits must be made by 4:00 p.m. Deposits made after that time may not be reviewed until the next business day
Even if the app accepts the deposit, credit union staff have the final say and may still reject the item
If you are having trouble getting a good picture of the check, make sure that the check is laying flat, is the only thing in the picture, and that all the check edges can be seen
After the check has been deposited via RDC, write 'Mobile Deposited" on the front and retain the item for at least 10 days
How to Make a Deposit
Log in to CFDCU Mobile and go to the Menu.
Select the Deposit option.
From here you can review previous deposits or make a new deposit. Select Deposit.
The next screen displays deposit instructions.
After reviewing the instructions carefully, tap the Got It! tab at the bottom.
Select the suffix where you wish to deposit the funds.
Select the type of check you are depositing.
Enter the amount of the deposit.
Take a picture of the front of the check.
Take a picture of the back of the check.
If you are satisfied with the deposit information, tap Next.
The next screen is a deposit summary, including which suffix the deposit is for and the amount of the deposit. If this information is correct, tap Deposit. If not, tap Cancel.
After a moment, you should see a Success! message.
That's it. If the deposit was successful you should see the funds in your account.
Hold on to that check for at least 10 days to make sure that the deposit was accepted.
