OVERDRAFT PROTECTION

Life Happens – We’re Here to Help

Unexpected expenses or timing issues can leave your checking account short. That’s where our overdraft options come in—so you don’t have to worry about declined payments or hefty return-check fees.

Your Overdraft Coverage Options

Overdraft Protection
· If you have money in another ALLIANCE account, we’ll transfer it to your checking account when needed.
· No transfer fee.

Courtesy Pay
· Courtesy Pay helps cover transactions when your checking account does not have enough money.
· If you don’t have funds available in another ALLIANCE account, Courtesy Pay may cover your transaction based on your recent direct deposits.
· We may cover up to 75% of your total direct deposits from the previous 35 days, up to a maximum of $1,000.00.
· Courtesy Pay may be used for checks, automatic payments, recurring debits, and more up to your approved limit.
· A fee applies each time we pay an overdraft item.
· Courtesy Pay can be stopped at any time if it is being overused or abused.
Optional Coverage for Debit Card/ATM Transactions
· By default, we don’t cover ATM transactions or one-time debit card purchases with Courtesy Pay unless you ask us to.
· If you want this additional coverage, contact us to let us know. You can revoke your coverage selection at any time by contacting us in writing or by phone.

How Much It Costs You

  • A fee of $24 is charged each time we pay an overdraft transaction.
  • A $3 daily negative balance fee is charged if your balance is negative at the end of the day. This applies each business day until you bring your account back to a positive balance.
  • A $24 NSF (non-sufficient funds) fee for each item we’re not able to cover and that gets returned.
  • There is no maximum number of overdraft or NSF fees that may be charged.

Who Qualifies for Courtesy Pay

  • Courtesy Pay is available on personal checking accounts with a recurring direct deposit of at least $500 per month.
  • Your account must return to a positive balance at least once every 35 days.
  • Courtesy Pay is discretionary. We are not required to cover every overdraft, and some transactions may be declined.

Important Things to Know

  • We do our best to cover overdrafts, but we don’t guarantee that every transaction will be paid.
  • You can opt in or opt out of optional coverage for ATM and debit card transactions any time by contacting us.
  • Use online or mobile banking to track your balance—staying aware helps you avoid costly overdrafts altogether. (Good account management is always your best protection.)
    e-ALERTS

    Your car’s fuel gauge lets you know when you’re almost out of gas. Your smartphone lets you know when your battery is losing its charge. So wouldn’t it be nice if you got instant info when your ALLIANCE checking account is running low? Sure, we can make that happen.

    When you sign up for eAlerts, you receive timely messages from us about your transactions. In addition to account balances, you can find out when deposits are ready for your use and when checking payments have cleared. You can even sign up for personal reminders about bill due dates and other important tasks—because, hey, you’re busy, and we have plenty of time to keep in touch.

    1. Log in to Online Banking.
    2. Open the Main Menu (three stacked lines).

    BILL PAY

    Because your time is better spent on other things

    Your idea of a perfect evening might involve binging on a favorite show or chowing down with friends on some tasty Texas barbecue. Sitting down with a checkbook and a batch of bills is probably pretty low on the list. ALLIANCE can help you cut that monthly chore down to size.

    Our online Bill Payer service lets you pay everything you owe in a matter of minutes. Make quick work of one-time charges or schedule payments of recurring bills – like utilities – well in advance. That means you won’t miss any more due dates – or miss out on any more fun with your friends.

    1. Access Bill Payer through Online Banking
    2. Make payments any hour of the day or night
    3. Easy scheduling helps reduce the risk of late payment fees
    4. No charge if you make three or more payments per month (otherwise, a $5 fee will be assessed)
    5. Security safeguards protect your private financial information
    MOBILE BANKING

    Let’s help your smartphone reach its full potential

    Downloading tunes, taking photos, texting friends. Your phone can do a lot of things, though not all are of equal importance. But tracking your finances and moving money where it needs to go is way up there on any priority list. And that’s what makes the ALLIANCE Mobile App special.

    No matter where you are in Texas or beyond, you can use your fast fingers to access your accounts without missing a beat. This service is free to our members and works perfectly fine with those fancy smart watches as well. Which only seems fitting, since our Mobile App is so good at saving you time.

    Remote Deposit Capture

    Deposit checks quicker than ever.

    Here’s the deal: When your boss hands you a paycheck or a friend or relative writes you a personal check, it’s not really money. Not until you get the funds into your ALLIANCE account. And since your life keeps you on the run, sometimes it’s hard to find time to stop in and make a deposit.

    But modern technology provides an easy solution. All our members need to do is download our Mobile App, take photos of the front and back of their check, and use the easy instructions to zip them on over to us. Your money will reach your account faster, and from there we’re sure you’ll need no instructions on how to spend it.
