No Hidden Costs
Here at Kellogg Credit Union, we believe banking should be easy and transparent, which is why there are no hidden costs when you open a checking account. You need only a starting deposit of just $5 to get started with one of our basic checking accounts. From then on, you don’t need to worry about maintaining a minimum balance, there are no monthly fees, and you get full access to over 70,000 surcharge-free ATMs so you can access your funds anywhere.
Mobile and Online Banking
Access your accounts at home and on the go with our online account access and mobile banking app. Not only will you be able to view your balance, transfer funds, and make mobile deposits, but when you open a basic checking account, you also get access to bill pay, so you can easily manage your bills all in one place.
First 50 Checks Free
In an ever growing digital world, more and more payments are occurring online and through debit and credit cards. However, there are still benefits to be had in maintaining an active checking account with physical, paper checks. For starters, some landlords and realty agents will only accept payment with a check. Some companies will also charge a fee to process a credit or debit card payment, while there is no fee for using a check. Checks may not be something you always use, but you’ll be glad you have them when you need them.
We make it easy to access your account on the go.
