Getting Started Business Banking Overview

Whether you’re an enterprise, large corporation or small organization, our flexible Business Banking Platform can help meet your unique business needs. If you rely on specific employees or an accountant to help you manage your finances, the first steps in the Business Banking platform are setting up your users and payees. After setting up these key features, you can jump right into a comprehensive banking experience! Users If your business only needs one person with access to the Business Banking platform, you can set up a single login ID and password. For larger organizations, our system lets you establish multiple login IDs and passwords for authorized employees. You can organize which employees have access to each feature within the Business Banking platform by creating user roles. A business member can register once as the business using the Business EIN number. • Master Users: Business control account that creates templates, payees. users, etc. • Sub Users: The user set up by the Master User with specific permissions, limits, and accounts set by the business owner. Northern Credit Union won’t service subusers. The business owner must assist because the sub user may not be on the account. Payees Payees are people or businesses to whom you send money using a payment feature offered through the Business Banking platform. After creating a profile for each payee, you can choose the preferred method to send them money and the respective transaction details. Each payee is saved so you can quickly and easily make future payments.

Various types of payment methods are offered through the Business Banking platform, including wire and ACH transfers. Though both are quick electronic payments, wires are the fastest way to transfer money between accounts. ACH transactions are processed through a batch process, and funds are generally not available until the next business day. For a complete list of wire and ACH fees or if you have any questions, please call or text 315-782-0155. Wire and ACH fees can also be viewed at www.mynorthern.com/wp-content/ uploads/2020/08/FEE-SCHEDULE.pdf.

Users Users Overview

Depending on your number of employees, owners and company policies, the Business Banking platform lets you set up multiple users with different responsibilities. You can create new users with unique usernames and passwords. Each user is assigned a set of user rights that permits or prevents them from performing certain actions such as: • Sending or drafting payments and creating templates for certain transaction types. • The number of approvals that can be completed in a day or the dollar amount in a specific transaction. • Accessing specific accounts. • Managing recipients, users and templates. Master users can set up the features, accounts and rights each user needs to do their job. Establishing these rights permits specific users to perform specific tasks, helping you manage your business and keep it running as smoothly as possible.

Users: Users Overview

11

Users Adding a New User

Each employee needs their own specific login ID and password to give them access to your business’s mobile and online banking. This allows you to manage your business banking at multiple levels. Creating a new user will trigger an automatic email with a temporary password. It’s essential to tell each individual the username you assigned, so they can establish access by logging in with the temporary password within 24 hours of receiving the email.

You can also adjust limits so you never have to worry about the amount or number of transactions a user makes. You can set these restrictions for a daily, weekly and monthly basis, as well as per account. Limits are enforced at the business and role level. Limits at the business level are cumulative, meaning the totals take into account the total dollar value of all transactions executed by users at your business. Limits are calculated using the Deliver By date method. For example, you may receive an error message indicating you have exceeded your limit for a future-dated template although you may be well within your daily limit for a collection or payment template with today as a Deliver By date. • Submit Up to: Max amount users are able to submit. • Authorize Up to: Max amount users can authorize for other users.
