Direct Deposits
|
How do I set up a Direct Deposit?
To set up a Direct Deposit account for your pay checks, you will need to complete the Direct Deposit form (found HERE) and submit a voided check or letter from your bank that includes the routing and account number associated with your account. Your Direct Deposit form must match the information on the additional documentation and cannot be handwritten. Do I need to submit a Direct Deposit?
No, TMG does not require associates to submit a Direct Deposit form. However, we no longer provide our associates with paper paychecks, so you will receive a "paycard" if you do not submit adequate Direct Deposit information. What is a paycard?
A paycard takes the place of paper paychecks and works similar to a credit/debit card. Associates that do not submit Direct Deposit information and/or do not have bank accounts will receive a paycard to receive their pay electronically. Who do I contact if I lose my paycard?
For lost or stolen cards, associates should call Global Cash Card via phone at (888) 220-4477 and contact the Payroll department to request a replacement card. Are there fees associates with using a paycard?
Unfortunately, some fees do apply. Please click HERE for a list of related fees. What is the number for our Payroll department?
