Yes. ACFCU can cover overdrafts in two different ways:

1. Courtesy Pay³ – If you qualify, you are automatically opted in. You can opt out via the Courtesy Pay Widget in the Mobile App¹ and Online Banking.
2. Overdraft Transfer – Such as a link to another account.

Courtesy Pay covers the following types of transactions:⁴

1. Checks, ACH and other transactions made using a checking account
2. Automatic bill payments
3. Recurring transactions set up using your debit card
4. ATM transactions
5. Everyday debit card transactions
6. Point of Sale (POS) transactions

We also offer a $30 grace allowance. That means no fees for debit card transactions if your overdrawn balance is less than $30.²

The Fine Print

¹Data rates may apply.

²This only applies to debit card transactions. ACH transactions do not have the $30 grace before a fee is charged.

³A $30 fee is charged for each occurrence.

⁴ATM transactions, everyday debit card transactions, and Point of Sale (POS) transactions require separate opt-in.

No, we don’t penalize you for paying off loans early. If we paid any fees on your behalf for closing the loan or provided a cash back incentive, those amounts must be paid back if you close your loan within 36 months of opening the loan. The amount owed will be included in your loan payoff amount.*

*If loan is paid off within 36 months of opening, the cash back or closing costs may be added to the pay off amount.
