Courtesy Pay & Overdraft Protection

When your checking account goes "Oops," we stand by to lend a hand.

Our Courtesy Pay Program offers you protection in the event of an accidental overdraft. Courtesy Pay is a non-contractual, discretionary overdraft service available to eligible checking account holders based on their account activity and history. If you're eligible for Courtesy Pay, we may approve overdrafts on your account within your current available Courtesy Pay limit. In addition, we offer a second level of protection for ATM and one-time debit card transactions. According to federal regulations, you must request the Courtesy Pay for ATM. We recommend this additional coverage to protect you from unseen emergencies.

In addition to Courtesy Pay, we offer checking account holders Overdraft Protection from their other UKFCU accounts, which may include savings, money market savings, and our revolving line of credit loans. (Courtesy Pay and overdraft fees apply.)

Courtesy Pay and Overdraft Protection are convenient services designed to protect our checking account holders from experiencing the frustration, embarrassment, and additional costs of declined transactions or returned checks due to insufficient funds.

To learn more about our Courtesy Pay Program or Overdraft Protection, call us at 859-264-4200 or stop by one of our locations.
