Still Paying Silly Fees? Tell Fees to Take a Hike
There are all sorts of fees a bank may charge for a checking account. Two really common ones are monthly maintenance fees and minimum balance fees, and we don’t charge either of those!
Monthly maintenance fees are charged just for the convenience of having a checking account, usually anywhere from $8 – $15 each month. If your bank charges this, you’ll usually see it taken out of your account at the end of each month and it just goes towards “maintaining” the account.
Minimum balance fees are charged if your balance goes below a certain threshold – like you must always have $500 in your account or you get hit with a penalty, for example.
24/7 Mobile Banking Included
We make it super easy to open a new checking account.
Has Your Money Found The Place It Belongs?
Do you know what your money is doing at your bank? If your money was at Element, it could be supporting local charities, small businesses, and your neighbors right here in West Virginia.
Element is a financial co-operative. That means when your money is with us, it directly supports everything we do at our credit union and all of our members across the Mountain State. From our low rates, fewer fees, and all the things in between – when you bank local, you support local and it’s SO rewarding!
You know the place you belong…
West Virginia, Mountain Mama! Now help your money do the same!
Money Hungry? We’re Serving Pepperoni Roll$$$
Ever feel like you’re always waiting for payday? Not here! You can get your payday up to 2 days early when you have direct deposit of your paycheck with us.
That’s helpful to a lot of people because things can get tight in the days before payday. Instead of putting a tank of gas or a trip to the grocery store on a credit card, you can just get your paycheck a little early to cover those last few days. Our checking accounts are designed to be used easily no matter where you are. You can do things like deposit a check from your phone, use mobile banking, and mobile wallets where you can pay from your phone at local retailers.
Imagine if your banking experience could be as perfect as a pepperoni roll.
Well, that’s one way to describe what we’re aiming to do!
