§ 363.37 How do I purchase and make payment for eligible Treasury securities through my TreasuryDirect ® account?

(a) Online purchase. Purchases of eligible Treasury securities through your TreasuryDirect account must be made online.

(c) Payment for zero-percent certificate of indebtedness. You can pay for a zero-percent certificate of indebtedness by:

(1) A credit from your financial institution or employer using the ACH method to your TreasuryDirect® account;

(2) A debit from your designated account at a financial institution using the ACH method, limited to $1000 or less per transaction; or

(3) Using the proceeds of maturing securities held in your TreasuryDirect® account.

(d) Payment for a payroll zero-percent certificate of indebtedness. The only method available to purchase a payroll zero-percent certificate of indebtedness is to arrange for your employer or financial institution to send a credit by the ACH method to purchase a payroll zero-percent certificate of indebtedness in your TreasuryDirect® account.
