Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
Primary business checking is the easiest to keep fee free. This has a $15 monthly fee that is waived if $5,000 in average checking balances is maintained.
Early Account Termination Fee
There is an early account termination fee of $25 if closed within 6 months.
Our Verdict
Looks like you need to submit a form to sign up, not sure if it’ll require going in branch to open or if it can be done over the phone. We will add this to our list of the best business checking promotions.
