Paying the minimum balance on a high interest credit card can stretch the amount you owe over many, many years. Applying is easy. If you're still not one of the estimated two-thirds of American consumers who are carrying a debit card, now is a great time to sign up. When you use a debit card, your money is quickly deducted from your checking account, up to the amount you have available. Debit cards are accepted at many locations, including grocery stores, retail stores, gasoline stations, restaurants, and virtually any place where merchants display your card's brand name or logo.
Debit cards offer a convenient alternative to carrying a checkbook or cash.
Take a close look at your last bank statement. You may be surprised to learn how service fees and charges have crept up over the years. For example, you may be paying high per check fees or a service fee for failing to maintain a high minimum balance. If so, it's time to check out a share draft account at the credit union where you're a member, not a profit center. That means we've designed a checking account that serves your individual needs.
