Simple Ways for Parents to Send Money

Deposit checks from your computer.

It’s the fastest and easiest way to get your child instant access to the funds (some holds may apply). Inside online banking, your student simply enters the amount of the check you are sending them. Once this process is completed, they can use their debit card or withdraw funds from an ATM almost IMMEDIATELY. You just send the check to Purdue Federal within 7 days. It’s that easy. We can even provide a postage-paid envelope for your convenience.

Here are a few other ways we make it easy to add money to their account:

  • Bank-by-phone 24 hours a day.
  • Stop by a Credit Union Service Center (shared branch) and make a free deposit.
  • Use your mobile phone to transfer funds.
  • Use eFunds transfer in online banking to move funds between any of your credit union or bank accounts.
  • Popmoney: Send money directly to your kid’s account.
