In order to transfer money from one bank account to another, you can use a check to do this. The other bank will use the routing and account numbers printed on the Cheque to initiate a withdrawal request from your other account at the other financial institution.

Direct Transfer From One Account to Another

Transferring money from one account owned by one person to another account held by another is referred to as direct deposit in this context.

Employees can be paid through direct deposit if you are an employer, which is a convenient choice for you.
