Add Funds to Your Truss Account

Deposit money into Truss by bank transfer, check, or wire — and see the two places in the app where you can always start a deposit.

Where to start a deposit

There are two places in Truss where you can add funds — use whichever is faster for you in the moment:

  • Accounts → Cash Account, then click Fund on your cash account card — the full deposit flow, with all options (linked bank account, check, or routing/wire info) and access to manage connected accounts.
  • Quick Actions → Deposit Funds, under the Banking section — a shortcut available from anywhere in the app for jumping straight into a deposit without navigating into Accounts first.

Both paths open the same Deposit funds window described below.

Option 1 — Bank transfer (ACH)

  1. Go to Accounts → Cash Account and click Fund, or use Quick Actions → Deposit Funds from anywhere in the app.
  2. In the Deposit funds window, stay on the Linked accounts tab.
  3. Select your connected bank account, or click Add bank account to connect a new one via Plaid.
  4. Click Next, then enter the amount and confirm.

ACH transfers typically arrive 1–2 business days after submission.

Heads up: If Plaid shows an error during bank connection but you completed the steps, check your pending transactions before trying again. The deposit may have already been initiated in the background — a duplicate would cause an NSF at your primary bank.

Option 2 — Check deposit

From the same Deposit funds window, switch to the Check deposit tab and scan the QR code with your phone camera. Check deposits are only available on mobile devices, so this tab hands off to the Truss mobile app to finish the deposit. For the full walkthrough, see the separate article: Deposit a Check — App or Dashboard.

Option 3 — Wire transfer

You can find your Truss account number and ACH routing number in two places:

  • From the Deposit funds window (via Fund or Quick Actions → Deposit Funds), switch to the Routing info tab.
  • Directly on the Cash Account page, in the Account & Routing section.

Share these details with your sending bank to wire funds from any bank. Wire transfers typically settle same-day if sent before your sending bank's cutoff.

Connect multiple bank accounts

You can connect multiple external bank accounts to Truss. Go to Accounts → Cash Account → Fund (or Quick Actions → Deposit Funds), stay on the Linked accounts tab, and click Add bank account. Each account is verified via Plaid or manual routing/account number entry.
