It's like a checking account ... minus the checks. A Safe Debit Account goes above and beyond a simple prepaid debit card, offering powerful benefits such as Online and Mobile Banking. It also offers peace of mind: with a debit card, you are less likely to overdraw on your account, and there are no overdraft charges if you do.
A Safe Debit Account makes it easy to stay on top of your money: you can track spending, receive low balance alerts, enroll in direct deposit, and much more. You can even send money securely to family and friends!
