What is Direct Deposit?

Direct Deposit is a convenient and secure method that enables employees to have their entire paycheck deposited directly into their bank account. By eliminating the need for physical checks or cash, this electronic transfer ensures a seamless and efficient process for receiving earnings. Non-city employees will also have the flexibility to choose between depositing the full amount or only a partial portion of their earnings.

What is Payroll Deduction?

Payroll Deduction is used for city employees when they do not want to have their entire check deposited into MCU. Unlike Direct Deposit, it allows employees to specify a specific amount to be deducted from their paycheck. This flexible option lets them allocate funds for savings, investments, loan repayments, or other purposes. They can easily adjust the deduction amount, providing them with enhanced financial planning abilities.
