Do I get a free debit card with my checking account?
Yes, debit cards issued for your checking account are free.
What happens if I don’t meet the monthly requirements for an Xtraordinary account?
If you don’t meet the requirements for any given month, you will simply earn no yield that month, and you will not receive the $25 of ATM surcharge rebates that month. There are no fees for not meeting monthly requirements.
Is there a maximum balance for which I can earn the high yield?

The Xtraordinary account earns 1.75% APY‍1 on balances up to $25,000. Any money above the $25,000 limit earns 0.25% APY‍1. The Teen account earns 2.00% APY‍2 on balances up to $1,000. Any money above the $1,000 limit earns 0.25% APY‍2.

Do you offer overdraft protection?

Yes, there are three ways you can protect yourself from overdrafts.

  1. Link your savings and checking accounts. If you overdraft, we will automatically transfer money from your savings to your checking to cover the balance — for free. You can link your accounts by calling us at 800.845.5025.
  2. Apply for an Overdraft Line of Credit. The credit limit ranges from $300-$1,000 with an interest rate of 18.00% APR*. To add this protection, apply for an Overdraft Line of Credit online or call us at 800.845.5025.
  3. Privilege Pay overdraft service. This service is automatically added to all Connexus Checking and Money Market Accounts. With Privilege Pay, at our discretion, we may authorize and pay your check, ACH, or Bill Pay transactions even though they overdraw your account. You will be subject to a fee of $4 each time we pay an overdraft (overdraft paid fee) or return a transaction unpaid (overdraft returned fee), with a combined maximum of 2 fees assessed per account, per business day. Overdrawn balances are due within 30 days of use. Privilege Pay does not automatically cover debit card and ATM transactions, but you can request to add this to your account(s) by calling us at 800.845.5025 or opting in through Digital Banking.
