Overdraft Protection: No More Overdrawn Accounts

Overdraft Loan

You can convert your good credit to cash. Overdraft protection means that we have approved in advance a personal, unsecured loan to balance your checking account if you should overdraw. With an overdraft loan you avoid costly overdraft charges and embarrassing delays. Use your good credit to qualify for a loan and your checking account will become a personal loan account.

Deposit Transfer

You may prefer to use your own deposits to avoid costly overdraft charges and embarrassing delays. We can perform automatic transfers from another deposit account to provide you peace of mind.

Direct Deposit

Direct Deposit is a safe and convenient way to simplify your life. Your paycheck, Social Security check or any other regular compensation can be automatically deposited directly into your checking account. Save yourself a trip to the bank and the worry of having your check lost or stolen. Ask us about Direct Deposit today!
