Is there a minimum balance required for a checking account?

Most of our personal checking (spending) accounts are free, with no minimum balance or other requirements. There is a $2,500 minimum balance requirement for our interest-earning Premier Spending account to avoid the monthly fee. For up-to-date information on our spending account requirements, visit our Personal Checking Account page.

Our Business Spending account does require a minimum balance to avoid a monthly service fee. For more information on Business Spending, visit our Business Checking account page.

You’ll also find that our Service Fees are considerably fewer and lower than the big banks!
