Using Abacus as an Interview Candidate

Abacus helps ensure you are reimbursed quickly for the expenses you incur during your interview process.  Abacus will be directly reimbursing you through an ACH payment into your bank account within 1-3 business days of expense approval.

Before submitting your expenses be sure to link your Abacus account to your bank account to ensure a speedy reimbursement. Once an admin at the company approves your expenses, Abacus will ACH transfer the funds directly to your selected bank account.

After selecting your bank, you'll be asked to log in using your online banking credentials. This is a secure process (the credentials used here are not stored anywhere on our servers and you'll only need to do this once). 

Connecting your bank account manually using your account and routing number

If your bank is not in this list, or you'd prefer to connect manually, select "Connect to any US bank manually". You'll need to enter your bank account and routing numbers. You can find this information in your online banking profile or in your checkbook.

Enter your Routing Number, Account Number, and your name into the form.
