Take Advantage of Elevated Checking

Elevated Checking is designed to bring more value and ease to your everyday banking. As a Utah Tech faculty or staff member, you can have the monthly fee waived by setting up at least $500 in direct deposit each month, making it simple to qualify while you get paid.

You’ll also enjoy access to your paycheck up to two days early with direct deposit, giving you more flexibility to manage bills, plan ahead, and stay on top of your finances. It’s a small shift that can make a big difference in your monthly routine.

On top of that, Elevated Checking includes 14 built-in benefits that add extra convenience, protection, and value. From everyday support to added peace of mind, these features are designed to help you take care of your finances so you can focus on what matters most, both on campus and beyond.

Easily redeem and manage all of your benefits from inside your UCCU Mobile App.
