💸 Cash-to-Yield: Money Flow
Here’s exactly how your money moves through Wellspring—from your paycheck all the way to earning yield:
1️⃣ **Funding Your Account
You can start by either:
- Setting up Direct Deposit with your employer to send a portion of each paycheck automatically.
- Sending a bank transfer from your personal Wellspring account whenever you’d like.
2️⃣ **USD Lands in Your Wellspring Bank Account
- Your funds arrive in a unique U.S.-based bank account that Wellspring creates just for you.
- This account is securely linked to your wallet.
3️⃣ Automatic Conversion to Stablecoins
As soon as your deposit is received:
- Your U.S. dollars are converted into stablecoins (digital dollars designed to stay equal to $1).
- This happens seamlessly behind the scenes—no extra steps needed.
4️⃣ Stablecoins Move to Your Wallet
Once converted:
- Your stablecoins are swept automatically into your self-custodial wallet, which is directly linked to your Barrel bank account.
