From ABA’s letter to OCC about Direct-Deposit Advance products:
“Customers understand that deposit advance programs are the functional equivalent of receiving an advance on income or other regular deposit. Thus, when the recurring deposit actually occurs, the balance not previously advanced is credited to the account. In other words, the normal, recurring payment is bifurcated into an accelerated portion (the advance), and the remaining balance received on schedule less the fee for taking the advance. When a person goes to his or her employer for an advance on their salary or commission payout, the obliging employer naturally pays only the balance (regular periodic earnings less the advance) on the scheduled pay day. The bank that offers a deposit advance program is behaving similarly, but as a third party, the bank charges a fee for the accommodation.”
