Paying your loan from an external account

The instructions below can be used to set up a one-time or recurring payment from another financial institution through the UBTgo mobile app or through UBTgo on your computer.

Eligible loan types include the following types of loans: auto, ready, motorcycle, CD, and hospital. If you have an eligible loan type, please see the instructions below. (If you don’t have an eligible loan type, a one-time payment can be made using your account from any financial institution at ubt.com/payment.)

  1. Enter your username and password to log into UBTgo. 
  2. If you’re on the mobile app, tap the More button in the bottom navigation bar, then tap Transfer followed by Manage Transfer Accounts. If you’re on your computer, tap on Transfers in the top left of your dashboard, then select Transfer Accounts.
  3. Tap Add Account, then tap External Bank Account.
  4. Enter your external account’s routing number, account number, account nickname, and specify if the account is a checking or savings account. Once entered, click Add Account.
  5. In a few days, you will see microdeposits in the external account. In UBTgo, navigate to your external bank accounts list via Transfer Accounts or Manager Transfer Accounts (see step 2). Locate your newly created external bank account and click Verify. Enter the microdeposits on this screen to verify the account for use.
  6. In the mobile app, tap Transfer/Pay in the bottom navigation bar, then Transfer Money in the top left. On your computer, click Transfers in the top left of your dashboard, then select Make a Transfer.
  7. Next, you’ll have the option to pay from your external account to your UBT loan. The first account displayed is the account your loan payment will come from. When you tap on the name of the account listed there, it will open a drop-down menu of available accounts. Select the account you’d like your payment to come from.
  8. See the money bag icon? That’s the account (or in this case, the loan) that the transfer will go to. You’ll want to change that to your loan account if it’s not currently showing. Tap the account that’s currently displayed and a drop-down of accounts will appear. Select the desired loan account.
  9. Enter the amount you’d like to pay.
  10. Next, select the timing for when this payment should happen. For one-time payments, select Immediate or Future to select the date from the calendar that pops up on the next screen, select Continue, then select Schedule to confirm.
  11. To make this payment a recurring one each month — which we recommend! — simply tap Recurring to set this up as an automatic payment.
  12. Select the Continue button and you’re all set. Thank you for your payment!
