Overdraft Services

Overdraft Protection is sometimes referred to as a “sweep” because it sweeps money from a chosen account, like your savings account, to your checking account to cover an overdraft. This is a simple backup-plan option! The charge for an Overdraft Protection transfer ($7) is significantly lower than that of a standard overdraft charge ($30), and your account will automatically be back in good standing.

Debit Card Overdraft Consent Service can prevent your Debit Card from being declined due to a lack of funds. It may temporarily allow your account to be overdrawn, but it does charge a fee for that allowance. Debit Card Overdraft Consent Service may allow a transaction to process at the register (instead of being declined) and your account would receive the standard $30 overdraft charge.

Did you know merchants can attempt to take a payment multiple times if it’s declined? With Overdraft Consideration, the bank may cover your inadvertent overdraft so you can avoid merchant charges from declined transactions or returned checks. For example, let’s say the auto-payment for your utilities is set to come out of your checking account, but you don’t have enough money to cover the bill. Overdraft Consideration may allow the payment to go through for the full amount. Your account would receive the standard $30 overdraft charge, but having Overdraft Consideration cover that payment right away means the utility company won’t attempt to re-run that same payment multiple times (which could lead to duplicate merchant charges and overdraft charges).
