Courtesy Pay
Courtesy Pay is a new service that adds a measure of protection to your personal checking account. Courtesy Pay may cover your insufficient funds checks, up to your approved limit, for one low fee per covered overdraft transaction. That means, instead of returning a check to the merchant because of insufficient funds, the credit union may pay your check, saving you additional charges from the merchant collection companies, in addition to the credit union's insufficient fund fee. It saves you the embarrassment an inadvertent overdraft can cause. It also helps protect your credit rating.

(Stress Free accounts are issued the standard Carolina Collegiate debit card. Non Benefits Plus Checking Account holders can purchase a custom debit card for a $20 fee.)
