How to set it up
Personal-checking ACH pushes only. Distinct from chase_business — the two have very different DD power, and several 2026 ledgers show personal failing where business payroll works.
Send at least the offer's stated minimum, a little early in your bonus window. Standard ACH takes 1 to 3 business days to settle, so you want time left over to switch to real payroll if this push does not register as a direct deposit.
