FAQs
-
Why does Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥ require new members to sign up for direct deposit?
Direct deposit is the fastest, easiest and most secure way to receive payments from Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥.
-
What payments would I receive electronically?Once authorized, Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥ would use direct deposit for nearly all payments, including grain payments and any patronage distributions earned for doing business with Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥. There are a few exceptions: Lien payments, payments for commodities attached to CCC loans and equity redemptions will continue to be paid with paper checks.
-
How do I know my information will be secure?Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥ employs the latest data security technologies and practices to secure member and customer information. That is one reason why we encourage all members to authorize direct payments to their accounts, which reduces fraud risk for our members and for Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥.

Who should I talk with if I have questions about Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥ membership or the application process?Start with your local Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥ representatives. They can answer your questions or connect you with other resources so you have the information you need to begin participating in the benefits of cooperative ownership.
