Checking accounts offer a secure, accessible place for your funds. If you are considering opening a checking account at HEFCU, or if you already have one, here's what you need to kow about this account's benefits and how to best manage it.

Easy access to your funds
You can withdraw funds from your checking account at a HEFCU branch, get cash from an ATM or transfer funds to another account. You can also use the account's debit card to pay for purchases using the funds in the account. Finally, you can write a paper check, and the written amount will be withdrawn from your account when the check is deposited.

Minimal balance requirements
Checking accounts tend to have very low minimum balance requirements. Often, you'll only need to meet this requirement when opening your account. At HEFCU, you can open a checking account with just $25.

Easy bill-pay
Use the payment dashboard within online banking platform to pay your monthly bills directly from your checking account.

Convenient account management
Use our mobile banking app or website to access your account, view your balance, deposit checks remotely, review recent transactions, transfer funds between accounts and more.
