At CommunityAmerica, we have no minimum balance required to open any of our checking accounts.

There is no cost to open, no maintenance fees, and no minimum balance required for any of our checking accounts.

Each CommunityAmerica debit card has contactless technology built-in to help speed up and secure your transactions. Every chip and contactless transaction contain a one-time code that gets transmitted each time you make a purchase, helping to protect against fraud.

 

The contactless symbol is four curved lines that get bigger from left to right that looks like a Wi-Fi symbol.

 

How to Use Your Contactless Card

  • Look for the contactless symbol on the payment terminal
  • Tap your card on the front of the point-of-sale terminal
  • Remove your card when prompted – you may need to enter your pin
  • Your payment is securely processed in seconds
