Before heading overseas, be sure to contact the Finance department to discuss your banking plans and options. |
Direct Deposit Options
GCM can deposit your pay into a bank account located in the United States. You can submit your bank account information to the Finance department by sending in the Direct Deposit form.
GCM does not have the ability to direct deposit into an International bank account. However, you can request a monthly wire.
You can request a monthly wire of up to 100% of your paycheck to your International bank account by sending the Global Payments Agreement/Deposit form. There is an $8.00 service fee that would be charged to the account for which you are responsible for each wire.
GCM recommends you keep a stateside bank account open even if you choose the monthly wire option to your International bank account.
Before leaving for your ministry location overseas, contact the Finance department to discuss your banking plans and whether ATM reimbursements may make sense for you. Typically, missionaries are not eligible for reimbursing ATM fees, but as an international missionary, if it makes sense for you to withdraw your salary on a monthly basis using an ATM, you may be able to reimburse the associated fees.
