FNCB Checking Accounts :: Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Hazleton

Personal Checking Accounts

A personal checking account is a fundamental banking product for most people. But not everyone's checking account needs are the same. Some people simply need a basic, no-frills checking account at the lowest cost, while others want to earn interest or cash back on their checking account funds or debit card purchases. Here at FNCB, we offer a wide range of different kinds of checking accounts to meet every need. This is one more reason why we're simply a better bank.

  *APY=Annual Percentage Yield is accurate as of 12/01/2017. Rates are variable and subject to change after account is opened. Minimum to open is $25 for Wow Maximum Earnings (Wow ME) Checking and $25 for Wow Saver. Wow ME Checking rewards will be paid each month in which a customer has: (1.) a minimum of 12 debit card purchases post and settle, (2.) monthly account statement delivered electronically through Online Banking in place of paper statements and (3.) at least one Direct Deposit, Automatic Payment (ACH) or Online Bill Payment transaction through FNCB Online Bill Pay post to the account and clear. For Wow ME Checking, if qualifications are met each monthly qualification cycle: (1) balances up to $10,000 receive an APY of 2.00%; and (2) balances over $10,000 earn 0.35% interest rate on the portion of the balance over $10,000, resulting in a range from 2.00% to 0.50% APY depending on the balance. This range assumes a $10,000.01 - $110,000 account balance, although higher balances are accepted. If qualifications are not met in the account, all balances earn 0.01 % APY. Qualifying transactions must post to and settle to the Wow ME Checking account during monthly qualification cycle. Transactions may take one or more business days from the date transaction was made to post to and settle account. ATM-processed transactions do not count towards qualifying debit card transactions. Transfers between accounts do not count as qualifying transactions. "Monthly Qualification Cycle" means a period beginning one day prior to the first day of the current statement cycle through one day prior to the close of the current statement cycle. The advertised Wow ME Checking APY is based on compounding interest. If the Wow ME Checking account is linked to a Wow Saver account, interest earned in Wow ME Checking account is automatically transferred to Wow Saver each statement cycle and does not compound. Interest will be transferred to Wow Saver on the first business day following the end of statement cycle. Actual interest amount paid may be less than advertised Wow ME Checking APY. The Wow Saver APYs may be less than Wow ME Checking APYs. Limit one account per Social Security Number.
  
  ¹To be eligible for an additional 0.125% discount, loan payments must be auto drafted from Wow Maximum Earnings Checking account. Specific underwriting criteria must be met including a minimum credit score of 720. Loans are subject to credit approval.
