A credit card provides a convenient way to access funds from a line of credit, which is a type of loan. Every time you use your credit card, your loan balance increases up to your approved limit. You will make monthly payments to either reduce the balance or pay it in full.

Your available balance shows the amount of money that is available to withdraw, excluding any holds and pending transactions. These balances may not reflect all pending items, such as checks that you have written or debit transactions that have not reached our system yet.

Overdraft protection allows funds to be transferred from a previously designated KeyPoint account or credit line on which you are an owner or borrower to pay an overdraft item. For a line of credit to be available for overdraft protection, you must complete an application, receive credit approval, and designate the line as an overdraft protection source. Overdraft protection will always be available, as long as your designated overdraft protection source accounts have sufficient available funds or credit. If you access a line of credit, interest will accrue on the amount advanced. Overdraft protection will help protect your checking account from having a negative balance.

Courtesy Pay Privilege is a service that KeyPoint provides at our discretion, under which we may pay checks, ACH and recurring debit card transactions that draw your checking balance negative. The fee for each Courtesy Pay Privilege payment is $29.00.

To receive wire transfers, please provide the sender KeyPoint's SWIFT code: KERUUS66.

KeyPoint makes it easy to wire money! You can request a domestic or international wire transfer at any KeyPoint branch. Or simply log in to Online Banking or Mobile App, click Send Wires.

After you submit your request, you will be required to sign documentation and provide a copy of your unexpired Driver’s License or Identification via DocuSign (a fast and secure digital platform that allows you to electronically sign documents). This extra step protects your account from fraudulent wire transfers. If we are unable to reach you, the wire may be voided.

Here are some tips to manage your checking account so you can avoid costly overdraft fees:

• Keep track of how much money you have in your checking account by keeping your account register up-to-date. Record all checks when you write them and other transactions when you make them. And don’t forget to subtract any fees.
• Pay special attention to your electronic transactions. Record your ATM withdrawals and fees, debit card purchases, and online payments.
• Don’t forget about automatic bill payments you may have set up for utilities, insurance, or loan payments.
• Keep an eye on your account balance. Remember that some checks and automatic payments may not have cleared yet.
• Review your account statements each month. Between statements, you can see which payments have cleared and check your balance through online and mobile banking.

Automated Clearing House (ACH) is the electronic network used for sending money (debits) and receiving money (credits). 

Starting September 15, 2017, both debit and credit transactions will be processed throughout the day –– instead of just once a day. This will help speed up bill payments you make, and move money faster when you transfer funds between different financial institutions.

Since your payments and transfers will be processed faster, make sure there are available funds in your account before you initiate any type of payment or transfer –– so you avoid overdrafts or Courtesy Pay fees.
