Which checking account is right for me?

While both of our personal checking options offer you a great way to pay for everyday expenses and safely deposit your paycheck, each of them can offer different advantages based on your personal financial situation. 

Our Simple Checking account is a personal checking account for anyone who wants a no-frills account with easy, convenient access thanks to our debit cards. These accounts have no minimum deposit requirement, no monthly maintenance fee and offer free eStatements* to keep you aware of your balance and spending.

Serious Interest Checking is an account that can let you grow a minimum account balance over time, just by using your debit card like you normally do! Learn more about our high yield checking account and see if it’s the right fit for your finances.
