Once your Income Source is set up, you’re ready to start moving money in.
There are two ways to fund it:
Direct deposit from an employer, client, agency, payment processor, etc
ACH transfer from an external bank
Let’s walk through both.
Direct Deposits
The most reliable and instant way to fund your Sequence setup.
Works with payroll, payment processors, client payments, anything that supports direct deposit or funds payout (Yes, Stripe & Paypal fall under this category)
Funds are available the same day they hit
Your Sequence Rules run immediately once funds arrive
ACH Transfers from External Banks
Want to move money from your personal or business bank account into Sequence?
You can send an ACH transfer from any U.S. bank.
Here’s how:
Log into your external bank
Go to the Transfers section
Choose to send money to another bank
Add your Sequence Income Source account using:
The routing number (usually shows as Thread Bank, N.A.)
Your account number (find it inside your Income Source)
Confirm and send the transfer
Heads up:
ACH transfers usually take 3 business days to land in Sequence.
Tip: Skip Zelle for now, Sequence doesn’t support it.
2 Days Early Pay (optional)
If your employer or payor sends deposit info early and is eligible, Sequence can make those funds available up to 2 days before payday.
Available on select tiers plan users
