The features you need, the benefits you want 

Putting money in a savings account is a great idea, but most of us also need to use our money, too. REGIONAL Checking accounts give you easy access to your money, and when you add a Visa Debit card plus Online and Mobile banking, you have worldwide, 24/7 access to the funds in your account. Whether you're a young person working your first after-school job, want to rebuild your good standing with a mainstream deposit institution, or keep large balances in your account every month, REGIONAL has a Checking option for you.
