B. Fee-Free Overdraft Program
Fee-Free Overdraft is an optional service that enables you to make transactions with your Card associated with your Current Account (“Eligible Transactions”) to make transactions for which you do not have sufficient available balance, and overdraw your Current Account. Eligible Transactions do not include ATM or other cash withdrawal transactions, peer to peer payments, cash equivalents, bill payments, ACH payments, Current Pay transfers, or any other similar types of transfers or transactions, all as determined in our sole discretion. Additionally, enrolling in Fee-Free Overdraft does not require a check of your credit score, and use of Fee-Free Overdraft will not affect your credit score.
C. Qualifications
In order to qualify and enroll in the Fee-Free Overdraft feature, you must:
Be 18 years of age or older;
Maintain a Current Account in good standing;
Receive $500.00 or more in Eligible Payroll Deposits into your Current Account over the preceding 35-day period. “Eligible Payroll Deposits” means recurring deposits of your wages or compensation from sources such as your employer, payroll provider or government payer, including where you are acting as an independent contractor, of an amount and frequency determined by Current in its sole discretion. Certain deposits do not qualify as Eligible Payroll Deposits for Fee-Free Overdraft, including non-direct deposit ACH transfers, inter- or intra-bank peer-to-peer transfers, transfers made to debit cards from digital wallets or P2P services (PayPal, Venmo, Cash App, Zelle, Google Pay, Facebook Pay, or other similar services), mobile check deposits, and cash deposits; and
Continue use of the Mobile App to access your Current Account information.
We may add to or adjust these requirements at our discretion. We may suspend or terminate your use of Fee-Free Overdraft if you fail to fulfill any of these qualification requirements before, during, or after enrollment. We may also terminate your access to Fee-Free Overdraft if you are in violation of any of the terms of the Related Agreements. Any termination of suspension of your access to Fee-Free Overdraft may continue until you cure the disqualification or violation, or we may terminate your access indefinitely. If your enrollment is terminated, we will not approve any further Eligible Transactions until you meet the qualifications and re-enroll in Fee-Free Overdraft .
D. Your Fee-Free Overdraft Limit
Your ability to overdraw your Current Account and have a negative balance is restricted to the amount for which you qualify (the “Limit”), which is determined by us in our sole discretion (see Qualifications above). Your Limit may be adjusted from time to time at our sole discretion. Any changes to your Limit by us will be communicated to you by email or within the Mobile App (“Notifications”). You can find your current Limit at any time by logging into the Website or Mobile App. Any attempt to conduct a transaction that would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Transaction will be restricted to the amount of your Limit that is available.
If you do not want to access your available Limit in full, you may decrease your Limit voluntarily (your “Selected Limit”) via the Website or Mobile App.
E. Using Fee-Free Overdraft
If you use Fee-Free Overdraft, your Current Account balance will remain negative until the balance is brought to a positive or $0 balance through a deposit. By agreeing to these Fee-Free Overdraft Terms, you authorize us to apply any deposit to your Account to cure any negative balance. Each time you conduct an Eligible Transaction, you will receive Notification that we approved the transaction, including the amount of the Eligible Transaction and the updated Limit you have remaining. We do not charge any additional interest or fees for using Fee-Free Overdraft.
If a negative balance is not repaid within 60 days of the first Eligible Transaction that caused the negative balance, we may restrict or close your Account, and terminate your access to the Fee-Free Overdraft feature. If your negative balance remains for 60 days, your Account and any associated products may be closed permanently.
F. Our Rights to Repayment
You represent and warrant that you authorize us to claim funds due to us (to cure any negative balance) under these Terms. If we are unable to cure the negative balance from your Account, you may be prohibited from obtaining another product from us. We will not place the amount advanced as a debt with or sell it to a third party or report any failure to repay to a consumer reporting agency if the advance is not repaid on the scheduled date. However, we may engage in debt collection activities.
For avoidance of doubt, failure to repay a negative balance will not affect your credit. Neither Bank nor Current will furnish information about you to credit reporting agencies. However, we will use additional legal options available to us in order to collect the money you owe us.
G. Cancellation of Fee-Free Overdraft
You may cancel your use of Fee-Free Overdraft at any time. To do so, please contact us through the chat feature in the Mobile App or call us at 1-888-851-1172. If you cancel your use of Fee-Free Overdraft, we may not approve Eligible Transactions that would cause you to overdraw your Current Account, but we may continue to exercise our rights to cure any negative balance. If you continue to meet the eligibility criteria, you may re-enroll at any time.
We may terminate these Terms or suspend or terminate your use of Fee-Free Overdraft if you fail to maintain your Current Account in good standing or for any reason at any time upon notice required by applicable law. This may happen if we find out you are violating these Terms or the terms of any Related Agreement. You agree that the Bank and Current are not liable to you or any third party for any costs, fees, or losses associated with the termination of your access to Fee-Free Overdraft, including but not limited to, inability to complete a purchase, insufficient funds fees, late fees, legal fees, third party charges, or any other charge.
