How do I get paid into Found?

Found offers several options to get paid into your account on an ongoing basis. You can also make a deposit into your Found account by transferring funds from another bank account or app, depositing cash, or using other methods.

Set up direct deposit

Set up Found to receive direct deposit from an employer or client and get paid up to two days early*. 

Provide the other party your Found account number and routing number, along with any requested supporting bank documents such as a direct deposit form or signed bank letter. 

You can find this banking information and documentation in the Business Banking section of your Found profile.

Receive payments from other platforms

If you use Square, Shopify, Etsy, or other online platforms to run your business, get paid out directly into your Found account.

In the other platform’s settings, add Found as an external bank account using your Found account number and routing number, and complete any necessary verification steps.

Found also partners with Stripe to enable your customers to make payments with a debit or credit card. Make sure that you first create or connect a Stripe account if you plan to use Found’s Tap-to-Pay or Invoicing features (see below for more information).

Get paid in-person with Tap to Pay

Set up Found to accept in-person card payments without any additional hardware, using “Tap to Pay” through Stripe. 

Once you’ve created and/or linked a Stripe account, you can set this up with a few easy steps in the Invoices section of the Found app.
