FAQs
If you ever find your Corda Credit Union checking account a bit in the red, don’t worry. We’ve got a few safety nets to keep you covered.
Here’s how you can cushion your account:
- Linked Accounts: Did you know your accounts can have each other’s backs? Link them up, and if your checking account ever needs a little help, your other account(s) will jump in to fill the gap. You’re in charge here – you get to pick which accounts lend a hand and in what order.
- Credit Card Reserve Checking: Have a Corda Credit Union credit card? Great! If your checking account ever dips below zero, we’ll sort it out with a cash advance in $100 chunks.
- Courtesy Pay: This one’s like a little buffer for your personal checking account. If your account’s been with us for over 90 days and is on its best behavior, we’ll let it slide into the negative, up to $500. Just make sure to bring it back to the positive within 30 days. A fee of $30 plus tax may apply for each overdraft.
