External Accounts
You can register external accounts through your Scottrade Bank account to establish online funds transfer capabilities. Registering external accounts with Scottrade Bank is a three-step process. First, you will be asked to provide your account information on the Add External Accounts page. Once you have entered your information, Scottrade Bank will make two microdeposits to your external account. You will need to enter the correct amount of each deposit on the Pending External Accounts page in order to verify an external account. Once the account has been verified, you will be able to access funds in the external account from the Registered External Accounts page.
To register an external account with Scottrade Bank, go to the Banking tab of your Scottrade account. Click Transfer Funds in the left navigation menu and choose Add External Accounts.
1. Select the type of account you will be adding from the Type drop-down box.
2. Enter the routing number, account number and owner of the account you wish to add in the respective fields provided. If you don't know your routing number, you may search for it by clicking the Search for your routing number link and following the instruction prompts. To find your account number, click View this information on a check.
3. After you complete all the information fields, click Add Account.
4. Verify the external account from the Pending External Accounts page.
Your account will appear on the Pending External Accounts page until you verify the account and it has been added. You can verify a pending account by visiting the Pending External Accounts page found under the Transfer Funds heading in the left navigation menu of your Banking tab.
Once you have added an external account, you will be able to view it on the Registered External Accounts page. To add a new account from the Registered External Accounts page, click the purple Add External Account button below the current external accounts list.
