Fee Free Checking
A no hassle, fee free checking account. There is no minimum balance, no check clearing limit and no monthly service fee. Fee Free Checking does not pay dividends but it’s free, and besides, that’s what savings accounts are for.
A debit card is available upon opening the account.
Interest Checking
A checking account that pays dividends. Designed for members who maintain larger balances, this checking account pays dividends with a balance of $500 or greater. A minimum of $500 is required to avoid a $5 monthly service fee. Clear up to 25 checks per month free.
Youth Checking
A checking account for our younger members. No minimum balance, no monthly service charge and a fee free debit card.* Choose from the Fee Free Checking or Interest Checking accounts. Members age 16 and older are eligible for this account with a parent as joint owner. A parent must remain joint on the account until the minor reaches age 18.
