New Regulations for Mobile Deposit

Make a check deposit from the palm of your hand–anytime, anywhere with SIU Credit Union Mobile Banking App. It’s free and easy!

New federal regulations require SIU Credit Union (SIUCU) members to add “For remote deposit with SIU Credit Union” above the signature on the back of checks deposited through a mobile device. If this information is not included, SIUCU can reject the transaction and your deposit would be delayed. This requirement has been put in place to prevent fraud.

For more information about setting up or using mobile deposit, see below:

    I have attempted to deposit a check twice today and the mobile deposit is stuck on “loading” after I submit the images.

      Christine: Thank you for reaching out. We haven’t heard of any issues with the app. You might try deleting and reloading the app, and if that doesn’t work, reach out to callcenter@siucu.org for more help.
