Zero-balance Checking

An easy way to spend and receive money

Automate your in-and-out cash flow

What is Zero-Balance Checking?

Zero-Balance Checking gives you an easy way to manage your deposits and disbursements. By linking Zero-Balance Checking to a master account where you make all your deposits, you can maintain a balanced spending account.

Unused funds are moved from Zero-Balance Checking back to the master account where they can earn interest.

 

 

Zero-Balance Checking Benefits

Easy cash management
A Zero-Balance Checking account automatically transfers funds to and from your master account to maintain a zero balance. Since you don’t have to manually manage multiple accounts, you can focus on other parts of your business.

Fewer fees
By continuously balancing the account, a Zero-Balance Checking account helps avoid overdraft fees. This can prevent costly errors and help you save money in the long run.

Better cash flow
A Zero-Balance Checking account ensures funds are available when you need them by automatically transferring money from the master account—so you won’t have to worry about making payroll on time or being able to purchase supplies when you need them.
