It’s your money, we help you make the most of it!
Having options is great. It’s why local restaurants have more than two items on their menus, and why you have more than one place to get your clothing in Storm Lake. You want to have things your way.
For that same reason, we offer multiple checking accounts. We believe you shouldn't be forced into an account that fits everyone. Instead, we’ll help you find the account that helps you maximize every hard-earned dollar.
Do you own a business or oversee the finances for a business?
We offer a business checking account designed for certain businesses. Here’s what you need to know about it:
- It has a $4 monthly maintenance fee
- You pay $0.10 per debit item
- You pay $0.06 per out of town check deposited to your account
- Fees can be offset with a credit back to you based on your average account balance.
One of our staff members can help you determine if this is the right fit for your business.
