How do I add money to my Manifest account?

There are two ways to add funds to your Manifest account.

Direct Deposit

Setting up direct deposit is the first step to keeping your professional checking account at Manifest separate from your personal checking account at your other bank. Plus, when you set up direct deposit with some distribution service, you will receive your funds even faster. To set up direct deposit with any number of services that pay you, simply tap the icon with the three dots directly below the debit or set aside balance chart, and tap "Set Up Direct Deposit."

Transfer From An Account

You can transfer funds from other banks or credit unions by linking them to your Manifest account. Once connected, you can use the account transfer tool (the icon with two horizontal arrows below your debit or set aside balance chart) to move funds between accounts. Note: Transfers from one Manifest account to another are instant, but it could take several days for funds to move from an external account to a Manifest account. To fund your account faster, we recommend you transfer money from your external bank app or website.

Does Manifest have any fees?

Nope. Seriously, Manifest charges no fees.

You may incur an ATM fee from a 3rd-party if you use an out-of-network ATM. You can avoid this by using in-network ATMs.

How do I initiate a dispute on a charge?

To dispute a charge:

  1. Log in to the Manifest banking app.

  2. Go to the Debit tab.

  3. Locate the transaction you would like to dispute.

  4. Tap the transaction to open the transaction details.

  5. Tap "Dispute Charge."

Can I get paper checks?

Manifest does not offer paper checks. You can pay bills electronically through Direct Debit or with your Debit Card.

How can I pay another business or creator if they’re requesting payment through a payment app like Venmo?

Yes, you have two easy options:

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Payments: Use the P2P Payments feature directly in the Manifest app to send or request money quickly and securely—perfect for seamless transactions.

Payment Apps: If the other party is using a payment app like Venmo, you can link your Manifest Debit card as the primary payment method. Most apps allow you to set this up in just a few taps.
