Choose the Checking Account That Fits

Betterrates

Classic Checking

A minimum deposit of $100.00 is required to open the account, or a member may elect to open the account with payroll deduction or net deposit. There are no monthly service charges if the checking account balance is maintained at $100.00, or if the member is using direct deposit to fund the account. Accounts not meeting these criteria are charged a $10.00 monthly fee. Members may be eligible for overdraft protection, online bill pay and Visa Check cards.

Trustedservice

Senior Checking

For members 65 and older. We understand that living on a fixed income can be difficult and that money can be tight throughout the month, so we waive the monthly service charge. Members may be eligible for overdraft protection, online bill pay, Visa Check cards, and 2 standard boxes of free checks per year. As Classic Checking account holders age into the Senior Checking range, their account automatically switches over to receive the same benefits.

Built for you

Student Checking

For young members ages 15–21 in high school or college, with no monthly service charge. As youth are getting established in life, we feel a monthly service charge would do more harm than good. A Student Checking account can be opened with a minimum deposit of $50. Members may be eligible for overdraft protection, online bill pay and Visa Check cards.

At Emergency Responders Credit Union, if you have an active share account, we honor drafts on your account that are less than $25.00, provided the aggregate amount of the overdrafts is less than $25.00. The activity is honored and the credit union does not charge a fee.
