How to automatically deposit recurring income into Flourish Cash 

June 23, 2026

Estimated reading time: 1 minute

Direct deposit helps you earn more when you automatically send eligible recurring income, such as paychecks, Social Security payments, or other regular deposits, into your Flourish Cash account. Direct deposit reduces the need to make manual transfers or keep extra cash in a separate, low-yield account.

By combining direct deposit with the power of automating funds to be pulled for payments, Flourish Cash can become the financial hub from which you manage everyday cash. Income can flow in, supported bills can be pulled from the account, and your cash earns a high yield in between.
