Domestic Wires are sent within the United States in US Dollars only. A US Bank is a bank that is incorporated within the United States, or subject to Federal and State Banking Regulations, whose deposits are insured by an Agency of the Federal Government.

To send a Domestic Wire, the following information is needed:

  • Receiving bank name, address and 9-digit ABA/Routing number and,
  • Recipient's name, address and account number.

The Outgoing Wire Transfer Request Form is located in Online Banking in the Forms menu.

Please note that the receiving institution may charge an additional fee for incoming wires.

Unlike many institutions, Star One does not add a markup to the standard fee for foreign-currency wire transfers.

We send funds in the receiving country's currency, unless the receiving account is specifically designated as a US Dollar account. This ensures compliance with regulatory requirements for remittance transfers.

Prior to your wire being sent, Star One provides disclosures to you, which include details such as the rate of conversion to the foreign currency. For requests received by fax, the disclosure will be sent to the email address on record at Star One.

A 30-minute waiting time applies before a wire transfer is sent, in case you wish to cancel.

Outgoing international wire transfers are processed through a US Correspondent Bank. The recipient bank is responsible for crediting the received funds. The actual amount received by the recipient may be reduced by charges imposed by the recipient bank. For more information about foreign exchange, call us.

It is important to note that if there are any errors on an international wire transfer sent in foreign currency, Star One may not be notified of any delay or problem for up to 10 business days.

To initiate an outgoing international wire transfer, please call us during regular business hours for information and instructions. Accuracy is very important when completing your request form. Incorrect or incomplete information can delay a wire transfer.

You have the right to cancel a remittance transfer and obtain a refund of all funds paid to us, including any fees. To cancel a remittance transfer, you must contact us within 30 minutes of payment for the transfer.

When you contact us, you must provide us with information to help us identify the transfer you wish to cancel, including the amount and location where the funds were sent. We will refund your money within three business days of your request to cancel a transfer as long as the funds have not already been picked up or deposited into a recipient's account.

You must contact us within 180 days of the date we promised to you that funds would be made available to the recipient. When you do, please tell us:

  • Your name and address or telephone number;
  • The error or problem with the transfer, and why you believe it is an error or problem;
  • The name of the person receiving the funds (recipient), and if you know, his or her telephone number or address;
  • The dollar amount of the transfer;
  • The confirmation code or number of the transaction.

We will determine whether an error occurred within 90 days after you contact us and we will correct any error as soon as possible. We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of any documents we used in our investigation.

Also known as "External Funds Transfers."

Transfers between your Star One accounts (checking or savings only) and your accounts at other financial institutions—one-time or recurring.

Maximum transfer: $7,000 per 24-hour period.

Requirements

  1. You must have a phone number to receive a One-Time-Passcode (OTP).

Setting Up Your Accounts for Transfers

  1. Go to "Transfers & Pay" in Online or Mobile Banking.
  2. Select the "Manage Recipients".
  3. Select "Add a New Recipient" and choose "External Account or Recipient".
  4. Select "My Account".
  5. Choose between "Instantly verify your account" or "Manual account verification".

Setting Up Other Accounts for Transfers

  1. Go to "Transfers & Pay" in Online or Mobile Banking
  2. Select the "Manage Recipients".
  3. Select "Add a New Recipient" and choose "External Account or Recipient".
  4. Choose "External Recipient".
  5. Enter the recipient's details then click or tap "Add Recipient".

If funds are not available when sending from Star One to an external account, a $15.00 non-sufficient funds/overdraft fee will be charged.

How are External Funds Transfers different from Bill Pay or Wire Transfers?

External Funds Transfers require that you know the account number for an account at another financial institution.

Therefore, you normally wouldn't use them to pay bills. Instead, use it to move money to and from your accounts at other institutions, such as your brokerage account, another bank account, or a minor's account.

Pay from Outside Account

$0 fee
Same day—if submitted before 3 p.m. on a business day

Pay your Star One loan with a one-time transfer from another financial institution—or register to schedule recurring payments.

For principal-only payments, loan payoffs, or payments to special or restricted accounts, please call us.

No maximum transfer amount.

Payments scheduled before 3:00 p.m. are processed the same business day. Other payments are processed the next business day.

A $15.00 fee will be charged if there are insufficient funds to cover the requested payment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Loan payments can be scheduled in advance up to three future payments.

Future payments can be scheduled by enrolling for the Auto Pay feature. To sign up, click on “Enroll Now” link on the main page and create a user name and password or enroll after making a one-time loan payment. Once automatic payments are scheduled, they will continue until canceled or a suspension date may be entered at set up.

Yes, but only if cancellation is requested the same day payment was made prior to 3:00 pm PST.

Payments can only be made using the routing number and account number of your checking or savings account at another financial institution.

Yes, the fee is $15.00.

No, pay-off quotes are not available through this service. Please call us for assistance with a loan payoff.

Yes, as long as payment request meets the required cutoff time of 3:00 pm PST.

No. A payment made using this service will not stop the previously scheduled transfer. Both payments will be applied and the loan due date will be advanced accordingly.

No. Any excess payment amount will be applied towards the principal balance. The next payment amount is not determined until the next billing statement is generated.

This is allowed as long as the principal-only payment is included with the regular payment. Any excess payment will be applied towards the principal balance. For example, if your mortgage payment is $2,674.62 and you want to pay $500.00 towards principal, enter a payment of $3,174.62 under “Other Amount.” The $500.00 will then be credited towards the principal balance.

Please call us as soon as the error is discovered for assistance.

This depends on the type of loan. For a real estate loan, the late fee is not required to satisfy the minimum payment due for that month; however, it will still be due. For a consumer loan (vehicle, Visa or personal loan), the late fee will be deducted from the minimum payment amount, which means a lesser amount will be applied towards the principal balance.

How to Pay Your Star One Loans
