By default the map shows all USAA locations nationwide. You can zoom in and out on the map. Clicking on a dot on the map brings up specific information about that location and the services available there.
If you frequently have cash deposits, you may want to check this map before you open a checking account with USAA.
Double-check that the machine counted your cash correctly, and keep your receipt.
Check your USAA account within 24 hours to make sure your deposit is accurately reflected in your account.
You’ll have to pay a fee to get your money order issued, but it’s usually no more than a couple of dollars. The US Postal Service only charges 45 cents for military money orders. A money order is treated just like a check. Since you’re depositing the money order into your own account, list yourself as the recipient. You’ll also fill out your information and sign as the purchaser of the money order. [7] X Research source
You can sign in to your account on the app using the same credentials that you use on the USAA website. Depending on the security you have set up, you may need to enter a code (sent through text or email) to verify your identity.
It’s also a good idea to add your account number in the endorsement area, but it isn’t strictly necessary.
If you just downloaded the app or have never made a mobile deposit before, you’ll need to grant the app access to your phone’s camera so you can complete your transaction.
After you take each photo, you’ll have the opportunity to review the quality. If it seems blurry or crooked, you might want to take it again. Once you’re satisfied with the photos, enter the amount of the money order and select the account where you want the money deposited (if you have more than one account).
Look for ATMs that have an “Allpoint,” “MoneyPass,” or “PNC Bank” logo. These are USAA Preferred ATMs. If you find a Preferred ATM attached to a bank branch, you may want to consider opening an account at that bank. You can use that account for cash deposits and also manage your USAA account from the same location.
Shop around for prepaid debit cards to find the one with the lowest fees that has convenient locations for you to reload the card.
While USAA doesn’t charge any fees for incoming transfers, the other bank may charge a fee to initiate the transfer. Find out how much the transfer is going to cost you before you open an account, especially if you’re going to have frequent cash deposits. Hold times are another thing to keep in mind. Using this method may mean your funds aren’t available in your USAA account for several days.
Once you get their check, you can deposit it using the USAA mobile banking app on your phone.
