Business Check Card
American Bank's Business Check Card can
be used anywhere that
accepts MasterCard® instead of writing a check or paying cash.
At stores, restaurants, hotels, gas
stations and other MasterCard merchants, it works
like a check and purchases are deducted
right from the checking account associated
with the card.
The Business Check Card is always a great
way to pay - any time, anywhere you see
the
MasterCard® logo - especially out of the office, on the road and
with new vendors.
There's no need to carry a bulky
checkbook and no waiting for check approvals. Plus
business owners can control how employees
use the card. Cards can be given preset
purchase limits for greater control over
employee spending. And owners are protected
against certain kinds of employee misuse
by MasterCard's built-in liability protection.
The Business Check Card is not a credit
card. Although it is accepted by merchants
just like any other MasterCard, the
amount of your purchase is always deducted
directly from the checking account
associated with the card, so there is no finance
charge or bill at the end of the month.
Direct Deposit
Almost any regular income check can be
set up to be automatically
deposited to your account safely and
on time. The deposit is made
electronically, without mail or paper
checks, so you can be assured that your
funds will be in your account, no matter
what your schedule. See your
Personal Banker at any American Bank
location to set up direct deposits to
your account.
