Our Tax Preparation Bank Products:

Refund Transfer Options

NOW: Pre-ack and Post-ack taxpayer advances - The ERO must have at least 50 funded RTs and a minimum 85% funding rate in order to offer the NOWs. Approval rates are typically in the 70% range, and loan amounts cap at $9,500 (the largest loan amount among all service providers). The pre-ack opens on January 1 of each year, and the post-ack starts once the IRS officially opens e-file.
Fee Assist - Get paid when we receive the acknowledgement from the IRS, rather than waiting for funding. EROs who qualify can get up to 75% of their expected prep fees for certain clients that pass underwriting.
Rpay - Get your clients their refunds faster. For just $20, RPay lets your clients receive their refund UP TO 5 days before the actual funding date. Available with most integrated tax software partners, this service works for both direct deposit and check disbursements, giving your clients early access to their money when they need it most.
