Automatic Payments
Cost: FREE / Payment: Same Day or Next Day depending on time of day submitted
The fastest, easiest way is to set up an automatic payment, also known as automated clearing house payment (ACH). Simply download the Automatic Loan Payment Authorization form or the Automatic Mortgage Payment Authorization form, fill it out, and return it to us with a voided check. Either form needs to be completed in order to make changes to or cancel your payment with a minimum of 3 business days notice.
Pay Online
Transfer Funds in Digital Banking
Cost: FREE / Payment: Same Day or 2 business days
If you have a Salal checking or savings account and you have chosen not to set up automatic payments, you can easily make a payment by transferring funds from your Salal account within Mobile or Online Banking. Or, if you are transferring funds from another financial institution, you will first need to link your account in digital banking using Instant Account Verification. It just takes a few steps to set it up. Learn how to transfer funds or add an external account for transfers to and from other financial institutions here.
Bill Pay in Digital Banking
Cost: FREE / Payment: Same Day or multi-day (depends on how it is sent to Salal)
Get set up to make payments automatically and manage multiple bills to different providers more easily through Bill Pay. Add Salal as a payee with your primary financial institution to send payments electronically. You’ll probably need to know your loan account number, which you can find on your statement and the payment mailing address (Salal Credit Union, PO Box 7492, Carol Stream, IL 60197-7492). Note: If another financial institution pays your bill, processing time will vary depending on if sent electronically or by USPS.
Loan Payments in Digital Banking
Cost: FREE / Payment: Same Day (if before 4 p.m. PT)
Beyond automatic payments, the fastest and easiest way to make your loan payment with your checking or savings bank account (ACH) or debit card from another financial institution, is by accessing Loan Payments under the Transfers tab within Mobile and Online Banking. Within Loan Payments, you can make up to 3 one-time payments per loan each month towards a Salal loan or mortgage and set email and text notifications.
