Primo Checking gives you more without the hassle of monthly fees or minimum balance requirements. With qualifying monthly activity, you could also earn:

  • ATM fee refunds
    No one likes ATM fees, and that's why we'll never charge you one. Plus, we'll refund surcharge fees charged by third-party ATM operators, up to $20 each month.
  • Earn higher interest
    You could earn up to 0.10% APY1

Qualifying monthly activity

To receive ATM fee refunds and higher interest, you'll need to meet all qualifying monthly criteria:

  • Twelve (12) Debit Card Purchases (each month): Big or small, every purchase with your debit card counts toward your Giving Back Perks goal.
  • Access the Prime Mobile App or Prime Online: You'll need to log in at least once each month, but there's so much to love about online banking that we think you'll be back more frequently.
  • Direct Deposit or Recurring ACH Payments: Any recurring payment established with your account and routing number qualifies, such as a direct deposit paycheck or auto loan, home loan, or utility bill payment.
  • Enroll in eStatements: You'll be set with fast, eco-friendly statements that arrive up to 3 days faster than traditional paper statements.
Worried about meeting the monthly criteria? There are no penalty fees for not meeting the criteria, and you'll still enjoy unlimited free ATM withdrawals while earning Primo's standard interest: 0.01% APY1
