Update bank information

Why did my test deposit fail?
There are a number of reasons why your test deposit might fail:
- Incorrect bank account number or bank codes (the required information will vary by country)
- Issues with your account type (we currently do not support savings accounts in the United States)
- Bank account is closed
- Bank is not located in the same country entered in your Ad Exchange account
- Bank account is not in the local currency of the country entered in your Ad Exchange account
- Bank account is not set up to receive incoming ACH/EFT
- Your bank code changed as the result of a recent bank merger
If your test deposit fails, you'll see a "Deposit failed" message on the page where you submitted your bank account. You can re-enter your bank information to make sure there wasn't an incorrect entry, or contact your bank to confirm the exact details that you need to submit and try again.
