After you enter your account information, you will be presented with a verification screen that includes instructions on how to confirm your account. There will be two micro-deposits that will be sent to your external account. This step ensures that when you open the external account, you are authorized to access that account.

Micro-Deposits
After receiving the micro-deposits in the external account, you will need to log back into your online banking account with Southern Heritage Bank and verify those amounts.
