1Certain transactions are not subject to decline. If any such transaction causes a negative balance, no overdraft fee will apply. While this account prevents you from overdrawing in most cases, there may still be times when your account could have a negative balance. This could happen if a transaction is approved for one amount, but the actual charge is more than the amount of money in your account. For example, when you use your debit card for a meal and then add a tip. In this situation, the full payment may go through and result in a negative balance on your account – in this case, we will not charge you an overdraft fee and you will not be able to use your debit card or withdraw funds from your account until you transfer or deposit enough money to bring your available balance positive.

2Customers between 16 and 18 years old must apply with a joint account holder, such as parent or legal guardian. To open an individual account online, you need to be 18 years of age or older. If approved for Value Checking with negative past credit or banking history, proof of charge-off payment is required in order to move to another Pathfinder account.
3There is no charge from Pathfinder Bank for mobile banking, mobile payments, or text banking. However, you should review your mobile device plan for any fees that your service provider may charge. Check your plan for details. Your carrier may limit access outside the U.S. To access Text Banking and Mobile Alerts, log in to Online Banking and click on the Administration tab. From there, select Mobile Banking and follow the onscreen instructions to enroll.
