Frequently Asked Questions How soon are my funds available after I make a deposit? In most cases, Pinnacle makes your funds available to you on the day we receive your deposit. Here s how it works: Consumers and businesses who make a deposit will see the credit in their available balance. We allow clients to write checks, withdraw money at an ATM or use their debit card on available balance. Please remember that even after we have made funds available to you, and you have withdrawn the funds, you are still responsible for checks you deposit that are returned to us unpaid and for any other problems involving your deposit. Businesses that use sweep accounts or wire money still receive same-day credit for deposits. However, if you have checks that are drawn on another bank (non-pinnacle checks), these funds are not available to sweep or wire until the next day. If you deposit funds through mobile or remote deposit, they are made available on the same day when received before the cut-off time (with the exception of commercial sweeps).
