How do I send money with Snap Pay?
Navigate to the Snap Pay tab in The Bank of New Glarus® and Sugar River Bank Branches mobile banking app. Enter the recipient’s email address or mobile phone number, dollar amount and memo information. The system will prompt you for your debit card number, enter it and your PIN and click submit. You will receive a confirmation email when the payment has been sent and also when the recipient receives the money.
What recipient information do I need to send the money?
The only information you need from the recipient is their email address or mobile phone number. They enter their own bank account information when they receive the money.
What happens to payments if the recipient doesn’t accept the money?
The payment will be cancelled and the funds will be returned to your account in the event that the recipient doesn’t accept the funds within 10 days.

The funds will be debited from your account immediately after you submit the transaction.
When will the recipient get the money I send?
The recipient will receive either an email or text message with instructions as to how to claim the payment. If the recipient uses their debit card to receive the payment, it will post to their account immediately. If the recipient uses their checking account information to receive the payment, they will receive it in 2 banking days.
If the recipient doesn’t claim the payment within 10 days, the transaction will be cancelled and the funds, minus the fees, will be returned to your account.
