Overdraft Protection

Peace of mind for your account.

An overdraft occurs when the available balance in your account is less than the transaction amount that is trying to clear. When this happens, the transaction will overdraft due to non-sufficient funds (NSF). 

You always have a choice in how we handle your overdraft transactions when you don’t have enough available balance in your checking account.
