Setting Up Bushel to Manage AgTexas Loans

AgTexas Farm Credit Services and Bushel have partnered to give farmers a simpler way to manage operating loans, access funds, and make payments conveinently online

How To Get Started

STEP 1

open your Bushel Business Account1

Provided by The Bancorp Bank, N.A. Member FDIC

Follow the prompts to open a Bushel Business Account, the bank account built for the American farmer. Once verified, you'll be able to attach and manage your AgTexas loans.

Open Your Bushel Business Account

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an Account.

What this means for you: When you open an Account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see a copy of your driver’s license or other identifying documents.

STEP 2

Connect a Funding Source

Connect an external bank account, securely through Plaid, to manage cash flow and make loan payments from the account you choose.

STEP 3

Attach Your Loan

  • Go to the wallet feature in the Bushel web or mobile app
  • Select "Link a loan or line of credit"
  • Search for AgTexas when asked for your loan provider
  • Enter your loan number (usually found on your monthly statement)

Once the request to link your loan is submitted, it will be verified within minutes. Once verified, you’ll be able to see your loan details and make payments at any time.

For all revolver loans, AgTexas will review and approve requests before disbursement.
