Cash Advances

It's common knowledge that you can use our Visa Platinum credit card to make payments and purchases at merchants everywhere. But let us clue you in on a useful perk – you can also use it online to add funds to your checking or savings account.

This is one card trick you'll definitely want to learn

For whatever reason, you need to get money into your checking or savings account – and you need to do it fast. The bad news is it's not payday. The good news is that's not a problem. As long as you have our fixed-rate Visa Platinum, you can use our Online or Mobile Banking tools to fast-forward funds into whichever account you choose. Here's how it works:
 
  1. Log in
  2. Locate Transfer Money and select Transfer Between Accounts
  3. In the 'from' field, select your Visa Platinum account from the dropdown menu
  4. In the 'to' field, select your deposit account from the dropdown menu
  5. Input the desired amount to transfer and then click Make Transfer1

1A cash advance finance fee of 5% per transaction with a minimum of $5 will be charged for any cash advance drawn against your Visa Platinum. A finance charge begins to accrue on cash advances from the date you get the cash advance or from the first day of the billing cycle in which the cash advance is posted to your account, whichever is later.
