EZ Checking

Life without a checking account can be difficult. Maybe you're paying big fees for money orders, check cashing, or paying bills by phone. Even if you've made a mistake on a previous account, ProFed has a way to help. It's called EZ Checking.  

EZ Checking is a checking account that's really easy to use. EZ Checking comes with many benefits, including FREE Online Banking (with FREE Online Bill Payment), and an ATM or Visa^® Checking Card. With one low monthly service charge, you could save hundreds of dollars every year by not using money orders and check cashing companies.

Contact us or visit any branch for more details on EZ Checking.

You may also be eligible for EZ Checking through Bank on Fort Wayne, a local financial education partnership with the City of Fort Wayne. Visit www.bankonfortwayne.org for program details.
