How do I change a worker’s payment method from check to direct deposit?

You can toggle between both methods anytime! There are 2 places to make this change:

If you want to set a worker’s pay method to either direct deposit or paper check as their main pay method:

1. Navigate to the employer profile in the Partner Dashboard
2. Under the Worker list page, click on the name of the worker you would like to update
3. On that worker’s main page, scroll down to Pay distributions and click Edit
4. On the Pay distributions page, select the correct pay method you would like to use for this worker, then press Save

If you want to change this worker’s pay method for only one payroll, you can do this on a payroll-by-payroll basis during the regular payroll run

1. From the dashboard, click Run payroll to start your payroll
2. On the Hours and earnings screen, you’ll see the worker’s pay method under the PAY METHOD column
3. Click the down arrow next to the pay method and select the pay method you would like to use for this payroll run
   1. Note that this is only for this payroll run and the next payroll pay method will default to whatever is listed on the worker’s profile under Pay distributions.
4. Once you’ve updated the pay method, you could continue through the regular payroll run flow
5. NOTE: If you choose Paper Check, you will be responsible for providing that paper check directly to your worker along with their pay stub. We currently do not offer an automated paper check solution.
