- Loan Payment Options
If you have a loan with Aquila Standard, we give you an array of convenient options for making your loan payment whether you want to pay from an account with us, or another bank or credit union. Options include making payments online, by phone, by mail, in the branch, or by using our Bill Pay service for recurring transactions. The choice is yours.

- Bill Pay
Take the stress out of paying bills. Schedule payments for your personal or business bills to payees using our Bill Pay service. Bill Pay is free and it can be set up easily. Grab a copy of the bills you would like to add and click the link below for instructions on setting up Bill Pay.

- Cashier's Checks
Cashier's checks (and money orders) are a convenient option when your check amount needs to be guaranteed. You can request a cashier's check to be issued from your Aquila Standard savings account, checking account, CD, or money market account. Fees may apply.
To request a cashier's check or money order, visit any Aquila Standard location or give us a call at 206.398.5500 to have a cashier's check mailed to you.

- Direct Deposit
Aquila Standard does support direct deposits from an employer or other similar entity. Generally, you can provide your account number and Aquila Standard routing number to your employer to begin your direct deposits. Aquila Standard’s routing number is 325081500. Most employers take about two payroll cycles for them to switch you from a paper check to direct deposit. Certain employers will request documentation, usually a voided check, showing that you own an account that can receive direct deposits. If you do not have any Aquila Standard checks available, we are happy to provide a direct deposit letter on our letterhead that will serve the same purpose.
If you need your account number, you may locate it on your monthly or quarterly statement from Aquila Standard. Please note, that your member number cannot be used for direct deposits, it must be your account number. If you have any further questions please feel free to call our contact center at 206.398.5500, available Monday-Friday 8am-6pm and Saturday 10am-2pm.

- Overdraft Protection
Get the peace of mind of knowing your check and electronic transactions are covered with Aquila Standard's Account Backup and Overdraft Privilege.
Account Backup can automatically transfer funds from your Aquila Standard savings or Money Market account into your checking account to cover a transaction saving you from the headache of a returned check or electronic transaction.
Overdraft Privilege protects you if you accidentally overdraw your checking account. When you opt in to Overdraft Privilege, instead of rejecting the transaction, Aquila Standard may draw your account negative to make sure your transaction isn't returned. You can also opt-in to have Overdraft Privilege cover your everyday debit card and ATM transactions.
To set up either or both overdraft services, speak with a member representative or call our contact center at 206.398.5500.

- Telephone Banking
Your phone is your key to access information about your account and handle many common banking tasks any time of the day or night. Check on account balances, see if a check has cleared, make loan payments, or transfer funds, all for free over the phone. To access telephone banking, simply call 206.398.5500 or our toll-free number, 718.952.1741.

Aquila Standard's text message banking is a free, simple, secure, and fast way to check your balance or review transactions on the go. You can view account balances, set low balance alerts, review transactions, and even perform quick transfers with a simple text.
- Text message banking works on any phone that can send and receive text messages.
- No data plan is required.
- Signing up is quick and easy.
To get started, log into Online Banking and follow the instructions below.

- Wire Transfers
Aquila Standard can help you transfer money from your account to an account at another financial institution. Wire Transfers are faster and more secure than sending checks or money orders. In many cases the funds are available the same day, though fees do apply.

- Card Control
Debit and credit cards make it quick and convenient to make purchases online, at the corner store, coffee shop, or movie theater. To make your shopping safer, we offer the Seattle CU Card Control app.
The Card Control app is a service that allows you to manage your Aquila Standard debit and credit card from your mobile device. It allows you to:
- Turn your card on and off, so that it's there when you need it but not if someone else tries to use it.
- Set geographic restrictions on where your card can be used, including whether it can be used online or just in-store. Choose up to three regions based on where you do most of your shopping.
- Restrict or allow transactions based on specific merchant types, like gas stations, restaurants, or travel services.
- Establish transaction limits so you or another authorized card user can't spend more than you can afford.
- Schedule alerts for certain locations, amounts, or merchant types, so you know if your card is being used in ways you haven't authorized.
- View the transaction history associated with all of your registered cards.
- Add notes and tags to transactions for easy viewing.

- Benefits For Your Employees
Are you a business owner or Human Resources professional? If so, we'd love to partner with you. Aquila Standard's Employer Partner program helps reduce employee stress through financial education. We offer an employee benefit with financial opportunities.
As an Employer Partner you can receive personalized benefits and services from a dedicated Business Development Specialist. Our specialists are experts in providing financial education and onsite resources. These efforts will reduce employee stress and allow for a more productive and happy employee.

- Loan Protection
A rate, term, and payment aren’t the only things you can get with your loans. We also have great add-on products that help you protect your vehicle, your budget, and your credit.
GAP Advantage: If your car is totaled in an accident, your insurance may not cover the entire balance of your loan, especially if your car is brand new. To make up the difference, we offer GAP Advantage coverage, which can cover whatever is left after your insurance company cuts their check.
Mechanical Breakdown Insurance (MBP): MBP, also called Extended Warranty, can enhance and even replace the original manufacturer’s warranty and can cover breakdowns and repairs, so you don’t have to stretch your budget when your car is in the shop.
Debt Protection: If you get hurt or get sick and can’t work, the last thing you may think about is your car payment. Debt Protection makes sure you don’t have to worry about it. When you are laid up for an extended period of time, Debt Protection can cover your payment until you are back up and around and able to return to work. Some plans can even cover periods of involuntary unemployment.

- Debt Counseling
Aquila Standard has partnered with Balance® to offer our members help with credit problems, housing counseling, money management counseling, debt management, and more. We hope you will take advantage of this free service for members only.
