Automatic Savings FAQ

Why can't I change the amount that is automatically saved?

The 3% in savings is a preset amount. If you would like more you can always transfer additional funds to savings manually. If the 3% is too high, it is recommend not enrolling in this feature and continuing to save the way you have before. 

In regards to “Automatic Savings,” which of my shares will the funds be deposited into?

The Automatic Savings will deposit to the first open savings account (which is the prime share) and is generated only from deposits made into the first open checking listed on the account (if there are multiple checking shares on the same account, only the first listed participates).

Can I cancel this feature later, and how?

From there you will click on “Automatic Savings” and uncheck the box on the left. This is also how you can turn the Automatic Savings back on later.
