Overdraft Protection

From time to time, you may need the convenience of overdraft protection. Think of it as peace of mind for those times you need a little extra to cover a cheque or bill payment. Choose from two overdraft protection options:

Overdraft Transfer Service

  • Pre-arrange to have funds transferred from one of your accounts, your Mosaik® MasterCard card®*, or your Personal Line of Credit to cover overdraft situations.
  • Service included with the Performance, Premium and Plus Everyday Banking Plans.
  • A per transfer fee applies when the service is used, in addition to a debit transaction fee (per transfer fees are waived in the Performance, Premium and Plus Everyday Banking Plans).

Personal Credit Reserve

  • Provides overdraft protection coverage from $500 to $2,500 at prevailing interest rates (subject to qualification).
  • Monthly fee is waived with the Performance, Premium and Plus Banking Plans.
  • No per item fee, provided you are within your approved Personal Credit Reserve limit.
  • For coverage greater than $2,500, consider a Personal Line of Credit with Overdraft Transfer Service.
