# What Is the Process for Providing or Updating Bank Account Information?

## Updating bank information is a common request and it’s handled carefully on purpose.

**Audience:** *property owners who need to set up or change where owner payments are deposited and want to understand the process, timing, and safeguards involved.*

Because owner payments come from a regulated trust account, MoveZen follows a secure, verification-based process to protect owners from fraud and prevent payment errors.

Here's how it works.

 

---

#### Frequently Asked Questions

**Can I update my bank information myself?** Yes—once your account is verified, updates are typically submitted through approved portal workflows.

**Why does the process feel strict?** Because bank changes are one of the most common fraud targets in property management.

**Will changing my bank info delay my payment?** Possibly for one cycle, depending on timing and verification.

**Can I have payments split across multiple accounts?** Usually no, unless the property is co-owned and specifically configured that way.

---

#### Why Bank Updates Are Handled Carefully

Owner payments move real money. Changing banking details without safeguards can lead to:

- Funds sent to the wrong account
- Fraud or impersonation attempts
- Irreversible ACH errors
- Trust accounting violations

Because of this, MoveZen treats bank updates as a high-security action, not a casual profile edit.

---

#### How to Provide Bank Information (New Owners)

During onboarding, property owners typically submit:

- Bank name
- Routing number
- Account number
- Account type (checking/savings)
- Account holder name

This information is used to set up ACH disbursements once accounting verification is complete.

---

#### How to Update Bank Account Information (Existing Owners)

Most updates follow this process:

#### 1. Submit the Request Through the Owner Portal

Property owners initiate changes through approved, authenticated workflows rather than email alone.

#### 2. Identity Verification

MoveZen accounting may:

- Confirm recent activity
- Request verification questions
- Require written confirmation

This step protects against unauthorized changes.

#### 3. Review & Approval

Accounting reviews:

- Ownership records
- W-9 alignment
- Authorized signer status

#### 4. Update Is Applied

Once verified, the new bank account is saved for future disbursements.

---

#### Timing: When Does the Change Take Effect?

Bank updates are not retroactive.

- Payments already processed go to the prior account
- New payments use the updated account
- Changes submitted close to disbursement dates may apply the following month

Planning ahead helps avoid confusion.

---

#### Common Reasons Owners Update Bank Info

- Switching banks
- Moving funds to an LLC account
- Adding or removing a co-owner
- Consolidating rental income
- Fraud prevention

Any of these is normal; the key is doing it early.

---

#### What You'll See on Your Owner Statement

Your MoveZen Owner Statement will:

- Show the payment amount
- Show the payment date
- Reflect the disbursement method

For security reasons, full bank details are not displayed.

---

#### What If I Need to Update My Mailing Address Too?

If your mailing address changes:

- Update it in the Owner Portal
- Submit a new W-9 if required

Address changes can affect:

- 1099 delivery
- IRS reporting accuracy

---

#### Common Mistakes to Avoid

- Waiting until the last minute
- Sending bank info by unsecured email
- Assuming changes apply instantly
- Forgetting to update after ownership changes

These can cause avoidable payment delays.

---

#### Why This Process Protects Property Owners

These safeguards help ensure:

- Payments go to the right place
- Funds aren't misdirected
- Trust rules are followed
- Records remain audit-ready

It may feel cautious, but that caution exists for your protection.
