What is Payroll Savings?

A hassle free way to build up your savings by direct deduction from your pay into your DCBank account!

If your employer is a payroll partner with the credit union, all you have to do is join us and then notify your payroll department how much you want to save each month and it is deducted from your pay and paid direct to your account with DCB.  You can then download our mobile App and sit back and watch your savings grow.

Save as you earn

Save straight from your pay—set it and forget it until you need it! We suggest saving £12 or £40 a month—that’s £144 or £480 in a year. Which works best for you?

Top tip – set a goal for your DCBank savings – maybe a family holiday, home improvements, upgrade the car, or something else important to you.

Our loans offer your employees:

  • Affordable and competitive alternative to high street and high interest lenders
  • Convenient way to pay. 
  • Boost credit history
