Chime lets members get paid early with early direct deposit. Just set up direct deposit for your Chime Checking Account. As soon as your paycheck comes through, Chime will make the money available in your account. This is often up to two days earlier1 than it is at some traditional banks.
In most cases, your paycheck will be available in your bank account by 9:00 a.m. on Friday if your payday is Friday. Your employer likely issues the direct deposit several days ahead of your payday to ensure it's available on time.
You might get your direct deposit 2 days earlier, 1 day earlier or on your regularly scheduled payday. Here are some reasons why you might not receive your deposit early: Your deposit isn't sent earlier by your payer. Your deposit type is not eligible, such as a bank-to-bank transfer.
You can see pending deposits on the Activity page of your Chime mobile app. Pending deposits appear in gray, then will change to green once the funds are available. In other words, if a deposit is in gray, you won't be able to access it yet.
All systems are currently available.
You can check to see if a direct deposit is pending or has posted by signing in to your bank's mobile app or website. For paychecks and other employee payments, your human resource department should be able to provide information about a direct deposit's status.
Delays can happen due to factors beyond Chime's control, such as bank holidays or timing from your payer. If delays persist, contact your payer to confirm the direct deposit details. Check the Social Security and SSI calendar: These payments follow a specific schedule.
Usually, you'll have access to your direct deposit at the opening of business on your payday — by 9 a.m. In many cases, direct deposits hit accounts even earlier, often between midnight and 6 a.m. on payday morning.
You may need to wait up to five business days for your money to appear in your account after using Mobile Check Deposit. This hold time helps us ensure the check clears and allows us to accept more checks through the Chime app.
Checks deposited through the Chime mobile app typically post up to five business days from the date of the deposit.
Your bank has to receive direct deposit details from your employer or a government agency ahead of payday. Employers generally submit payroll information to banks up to two days before funds arrive. Since banks know the money is on its way, they can push income to your account early.
A Qualifying Direct Deposit is a deposit of $200 or more by Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) that comes from your employer, payroll provider, gig economy payer, or benefits payer OR a deposit by Original Credit Transaction (OCT) from your gig economy payer.
Once you set up direct deposit with Chime, you'll be on your way to MyPay. Most members' credit limits start between $50-$100. Limits can increase as soon as the next pay cycle. Continue to use Chime and within a few months you could reach higher credit limits, up to $500.
What time does direct deposit hit Chime? Direct deposits post Monday to Friday throughout the day. As a general rule of thumb, direct deposits with Chime will be in your Chime account by 9:00 a.m. EST on your typical payday.

Banks that offer early direct deposit do this by making funds available in your checking account as soon as they receive information from a payer, such as your employer, about incoming deposits, rather than waiting for the funds to clear first. This way, you might have access to your direct deposit two days early.
Early access to direct deposit funds depends on the timing of the submission of the payment file from the payer. We generally make these funds available on the day the payment file is received, which may be up to 2 days earlier than the scheduled payment date.
According to the official Chime status page, the service is currently up. For the most recent updates, check the 'Recent Outages and Issues' section above.

Whatever the reason, the best thing to do is contact your employer's payroll department. You can ask them to confirm whether or not you sent your payment information in time for processing and confirm that the bank account information they're using to route your paycheck is accurate.
