Set up contractors for direct deposit

When you add a contractor to your Intuit Full Service Payroll account, you choose their pay method:

• Paper check (selected by default)
• Direct deposit

You can send payments to a contractor's checking or a savings account — you cannot split a direct deposit transaction into two accounts.
