| You can use your Check Card
in more ways, at more places and for more things than a regular ATM
card. Because it carries the MasterCard® logo, you can use it
instead of writing a check or paying cash at any merchant that
accepts MasterCard debit cards. But since it is not a credit card, there are no
interest charges when you use it. When you use
your card for payment, the amount will automatically be deducted
from your primary checking account.
Use your Check Card just like an ATM card
at any of our ATM locations
to withdraw cash, check your account balances and transfer funds
between your accounts. Some of our ATM locations also accept deposits.
Use your card at most ATMs worldwide for cash withdrawals.
It's faster than writing a check, because
you don't need to show your ID or give personal information. And you
can view your Check Card transactions with details on bank
statements, in Bank OnLine and by calling Bank-By-Phone.

No more check writing
hassles, no more running out of checks, no more carrying lots
of cash – one card can do it all. |

Using your Check Card |
|
At Stores, Restaurants, Gas Stations and
Other Merchants
|
Use in place of checks by signature,
anywhere MasterCard® debit cards are accepted, by selecting
"Credit" or handing your card to the cashier.
Use in place of checks by PIN
anywhere you see a PIN pad using the Pulse or Cirrus
network by selecting "Debit."
For signature or PIN
purchases, the amount is immediately deducted from your
primary checking account.
Depending on the merchant,
you may be able to get cash back during your
transaction. |
