Written by Ula Moyse-White

Overview

This guide explains how to update the bank account where your Legl Pay payouts are sent. You may need to do this if your firm changes bank accounts or wants to add an additional payout account.

Adding a bank account is a two-step process: first add the account in Legl, then verify it in Adyen.


Before you start

  • You must be a Legl Admin

  • Have the new bank account details to hand


How to add or update bank accounts in Adyen

Add the bank account in Legl

  1. Log in to the Legl Dashboard.

  2. Select Settings in the left-hand menu.

  3. Select Pay from the Settings menu.

  4. Select the Bank Accounts tab. Accounts where Pay by Bank is enabled will show a Pay by bank pill next to the account name.

  5. Select + Add bank account in the top right.

  6. Complete the bank account details and save.

Verify the account in Adyen

  1. Select Correct Onboarding Details in the top right of the Bank Accounts tab. This opens the Adyen onboarding page.

  2. In the section for payout bank accounts, select + Add extra bank account.

  3. Enter the new bank account details.

  4. Review the information and submit the update in Adyen.


What happens next

Once submitted, your updated bank account details will be saved in Adyen for future payouts. After completing the update, contact our Support team to confirm the change.


Important information

  • Adding a bank account requires both steps to be completed: the Legl record and the Adyen verification. The account will not be active for payouts until both are done

  • Bank account changes are made directly in Adyen. Legl cannot manually edit your payout account details on your behalf

  • Payouts will continue to be sent to the existing bank account until the new details are successfully submitted and confirmed
