How do I set up a direct deposit to my account from my paycheck or government payments?

Setting up a direct deposit is safe and secure – here are steps to follow to get started: 

  • Contact your pension or employer’s payroll provider for their specific paperwork or procedures to direct your deposits to your Ameriprise ONE Financial Account.   
  • As part of the paperwork, you’ll be asked for a routing number and account number – use the numbers from the bottom of your checks (see example). You may also be asked to provide a voided check for confirmation.

  • The Social Security direct deposit form (Form SF-1199A) can be downloaded at ssa.gov/deposit/. Or visit the godirect.gov page for instructions setting up a direct deposit online. Submit the voided check with the form to the payment originator.

Can I add my Ameriprise Visa® debit card to my mobile phone digital wallet?

Yes, your debit card has several digital wallet capabilities enabled and can be loaded on to your phone via a free app from the App Store.

Eligible digital wallet options include Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Fitbit Pay and Garmin Pay. If you request Apple Pay, you will receive an acknowledgement letter confirming your request. The acknowledgement letter will be sent from UMB Bank which issues our Ameriprise® Visa® debit card. No further action will be required on your part. It is simply an acknowledgement to you that your request has been received and processed.

Does my Ameriprise® Visa® debit card have contactless capability?

All new Ameriprise Visa® debit cards now have contactless capabilities. A contactless card allows you to make everyday purchases safely and securely with just a tap at any terminal or card reader with the contactless symbol. If contactless payment is not available, you can continue to insert or swipe your debit card as usual.

If your card does not have the white wireless symbol you may request a contactless card by calling the Client Service Center at 888.356.1006.

How do I report a lost or stolen debit card?

To report a lost or stolen debit card/PIN or to report unauthorized transactions, call 888.356.1006 (24 hours per day, 7 days a week) or for international calls: 612.671.1260.

Is there a foreign transaction fee to use my debit card?

A 1% international transaction fee is charged separately on each transaction (ATM and POS) occurring outside of the United States or U.S. Territories, per the VISA Debit card agreement. This is a Visa fee, not an Ameriprise ONE Financial Account fee.

Are there any transaction limits on my debit card?

ATM access and debit card transactions have daily transaction limits that are listed on the card carrier you receive when your card is mailed to you. You can also call the Client Service Center at 888.356.1006 for card limit information.

Online Bill Pay

How do I pay bills online using the ONE Account Bill Pay feature?

Paying bills online is easy and you can set up one-time or recurring payments. To get started, log in to the secure site on ameriprise.com. Select the Transfer & Tools drop-down menu at the top of the page and then choose “Bill pay.” The electronic bill payment service uses the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network to electronically transfer your payments from your ONE account to the third party you are paying on the date you specify.  If a merchant or individual is not set up for electronic transfer or the merchant or bill pay service has set ACH limits for risk mitigation purposes, a paper check may be sent to them via U.S. Mail, drawn from your ONE Account. 

How do I set up payees in online bill pay?

From the online bill pay Payment Center, choose “Add a Company or Person.” To simplify the set-up process, a drop down menu will allow you to narrow your company search by type of merchant/service. Then click on the icon (i.e. utilities, credit card, medical). The merchant icons that are pre-established in the Payment Center will populate. Click on the appropriate icon for the merchant you would like to pay. You will need to provide your account number for that merchant. If you do not find the merchant you want to pay, you can use the “Everything Else” icon and easily set them up. To set up a person, you will need to provide the individual’s name as the payee, their address (city, state, ZIP code) and any relevant account number or other identifying information, if applicable.

How should I schedule my online bill payments?

When you enter an amount, bill pay automatically displays the earliest date the biller will receive the payment. You can accept this date or change it to a later date. We suggest you allow five business days to set up, change or delete a payment arrangement.

Use the payment calendar in the Payment Center to determine the pay date you can select to pay your bill. The calendar shows:

  • The pay dates available in the current month. You can scroll to future months, if necessary.
  • The earliest date you can select for the biller to receive the payment.
  • The due date for your bill if you are paying an e-bill or if you set up reminders for the bill you are paying.

Remember to check your next statement to ensure that your payment was credited correctly.

How will my online bill payments be sent?

The bill payment service reserves the right to select the method in which to remit funds on your behalf to your Biller. These payment methods include an electronic payment, an electronic to check payment or a check payment. The remit method is determined by multiple factors which include, but are not limited to, merchant ability to accept an ACH payment, dollar amount of the payment, merchant limitations on dollar amount accepted via ACH and the length of time the client has had a relationship with the bill pay service.

The payment will be made one of three ways:

  1. All-Electronic Payment: An electronic transfer to the payee account is made on the payment date you specify.
  2. Electronic-to-Check Payment: The bill payment service mails a check drawn electronically from your ONE account to payees who are not set up to receive electronic payments. The payee handles the payment as a regular paper check.
  3. Check Payment: The electronic bill payment service mails a check from your ONE Account to be delivered on the date you specify. The payee handles the payment as a regular paper check and your account will be debited on the date the check is deposited by the payee.
Are there any limits or restrictions on a bill that can be paid online?

You can pay anyone, anywhere in the United States. There are no minimums or limits to the number of bills that can be paid each month.

Tax payments and court ordered payments are discouraged and must be scheduled at your own risk.

How will I know what payments have been made?

You can set up a variety of reminders on your account for each merchant once they have been set up within your account.  The reminder options are: 

  • email me when my payment is due;
  • email me when the payment has been sent; or
  • email me if not paid by the due date. 

If you set up AutoPay, you don’t need a reminder. The bill payment service will automatically make your payment each month. 

Additionally, once a payment has been made, you will see it on your monthly consolidated statement. It will also appear in your payment history and account activity online. Keep in mind, we only make payments you authorize. You are in control of your account at all times. If for some reason a payment cannot be made, for example due to insufficient funds in your account, we will notify you via U.S. Mail in approximately three to seven business days.

How do I make an inquiry or place a stop payment on a check that has been issued?

You may inquire about a bill payment or request a stop payment by calling our Customer Service Representatives at 888.356.1006Because of the time-sensitive nature of stop-payment requests, we strongly recommend that you call our Customer Service Representatives as soon as possible.
