Depositing funds into your Oxygen personal account
We offer many convenient options to suit your needs
Option 1: Direct deposit
Setting up direct deposit with your employer or another payment source is easy. Simply follow the steps below, and your funds will be deposited directly into your account on payday.
A. Direct deposit via Pinwheel:
To deposit money into your Oxygen account using Pinwheel, log in to your account and go to “Overview,” then “Add funds” > “Direct deposit.”
Pinwheel is only available for Oxygen personal banking accounts. Pinwheel is not available for business accounts at this time.
Oxygen is a financial technology company. Banking Services provided by The Bancorp Bank, N.A., Member FDIC.
Adding your paycheck to your Oxygen account using Pinwheel for the first time:
Tap the “Find employer” button. You will be directed to use your employer or income provider’s specific payroll login information to set up your direct deposit automatically (Your employer must provide you with this information.).
Choose “Full paycheck” or “Part” based on your preferences.
Edit as needed, and tap “Confirm.”
Once your employer or income provider processes the change, your direct deposit might still take one to two payroll cycles to take effect.
Finding your payroll provider
To search for a payroll provider, use the search bar or choose from the list of popular providers. If your payroll provider is unavailable or you’re having trouble logging in:
Choose the “Manual form” button, and then enter your payroll provider’s name.

This form can be shared with your employer or income provider to deposit your paycheck into your Oxygen account.
C. Direct deposit via employer portal:
To deposit money into your Oxygen account using an employer portal, you’ll need your routing and account numbers. You can find your routing and account numbers in the Oxygen app by going to “More” > “Account numbers.”
