*We will decline or return transactions when you do not have enough money in your account to cover the charge. However, you could still end up with a negative balance if, for  example, a transaction is approved for one amount, but then the actual charge is larger than the balance you have in your account (like when you add a tip at a restaurant after the transaction for the  meal was already approved). Even if you have a negative balance, we will not charge you an overdraft fee.

**Make a deposit within 60 days to avoid account closure or maintenance fees.
