Don't Delay. Move Your Account Today.

The deadline to move your existing USPTO deposit accounts and electronic funds transfer (EFT) accounts to Financial Manager has been extended through July. A new date will be announced later, and by that deadline all deposit accounts and EFT accounts must be stored in Financial Manager in order to be used for payments. Customers may continue to pay as a guest (i.e. without logging in and using a payment method stored in Financial Manager), but will be limited to using only a credit/debit card. Please follow the steps outlined in the Financial Manager Quick Start Guide to move your accounts to Financial Manager today. Note that each account will need to move separately unless you were a previously registered Financial Profile user.

There are no changes to the options for adding funds to deposit accounts; however, all EFT accounts must be stored in Financial Manager in order to be used for online replenishments or to schedule auto-replenishments. See the Deposit Account Replenishment Options page for the available options.

Financial Manager Enhancements Coming Soon

The USPTO will soon release several other enhancements to Financial Manager that will impact the customer experience, including strengthened user permission settings and improvements to reports. Be sure to check out our Financial Manager Information pages to learn about these upcoming changes and the advantages of storing all of your payment methods in Financial Manager.

For additional information, you may also call the USPTO Contact Center for one-on-one assistance at 571-272-1000 or 800-786-9199 (select option 3, then option 4), or email FeesHelp@uspto.gov.
