In my experience, if RefPay is set up properly, it's more convenient than waiting for a check. I've had ADs use RefPay to pay me as soon as I arrived on site. Three business days later, the money is in my account.

So far, I haven't had to provide my SS# for RefPay schools, although some have asked for the e-mail address tied to it. Other schools seem to be able to pay me via my Arbiter account information.
