You know that details matter. [And you are in good company.]
Here are a few frequently asked questions:
Are there really no ATM fees?
Yes, that’s right! Here’s how it works. Anytime you get charged an ATM fee, we’ll reimburse your account. There are no limits either. Give us about two days, and you’ll see the fee rebate show up in your account. As a Civic member, you will never pay any ATM fees from anywhere at anytime.
Is there an account minimum?
When you first open your account, there is a $5 requirement. Once the account has been opened, there are no minimums. So, if your active account falls below the initial $5 requirement, it’s completely okay [and there are no fees].
Are there overdraft fees?
Right from the start, we encourage you to designate one or more of your accounts as overdraft options. That way, if a charge cannot be covered – and there’s money available in a designated account - we’ll move what’s needed to cover the charge. This important overdraft protection step prevents an overdraft situation and eliminates any insufficient funds fees. So, when you select overdraft protection options, you can use a savings, money market, credit card, personal line of credit or another checking account. And you can combine options together.
How does overdraft work?
If a charge comes through your account and your balance cannot support the charge, we can transfer exactly the amount that’s needed to cover the charge from your designated overdraft account. To set up this service, contact the Experience Center.
Does this account include checks?
Yes! We’ve got options when you want to go old-school. Your first box of standard Civic checks are complimentary. If you need checks, just let us know. We will get them ordered and sent to your address on file.
Can I have more than one debit card?
Each account owner gets their own debit card. That way, each person has the flexibility to use Civic the way they like. Want your card to go further? Link it to a digital wallet like Apple Pay®, Samsung Pay®, Google Pay® or Mastercard® Click to Pay.
Do you charge an insufficient funds fee or NSF?
Yes. If there are no funds of any kind available, we will have to reject the transaction and charge your account a $15 fee. To avoid this, enroll your account in overdraft protection [*see the third and fourth question].
How do I get the bonus rate?
For each month that you use your card at least 20 times, we pay you an interest rate bonus. It’s our way of saying thanks for being a member.
Terms & Conditions

Purchases and/or transactions may take up to two business days from transaction date to post to the account. This bonus dividend rate is paid on balances up to $10,000. Balances in excess of $10,000 will earn dividends at the current available rate. Minimum opening deposit is $5. For members making less than 20 qualified purchases per month, dividend rate is 0.15%.
† Fees applicable to any ATM network in the United States and its territories will be charged to member account and then refunded to the same account by Civic within two business days. Rebated funds will be available for use following the credit union’s nightly batch processing.
