How-to guide

Step 1

Log into Remote you will find a notification telling you that you should update your bank account information.

Step 2

In the example below, you linked an existing bank account in US Dollars. You must provide the country of that specific bank account, so that Remote can then determine the specific account details that are relative to the country, such as account number and routing number (for the US).

When you click `Please edit`, you can update the information to identify the account and then select the bank account country.

Step 3

Once you have selected the country, you must enter the required bank account information. In this case Bank name, Account Number, Routing Number, and whether it's a checking or savings account.

Step 4

Great! The account was verified successfully, and we can make payments to the account.

You can add multiple accounts if you wish.
