Personal Checking

Our checking accounts are designed to meet the needs of our customers - find the one that is your perfect fit! All personal checking accounts allow access to your account by paper checks, debit cards, Internet Banking and the ATM. For more information on any of these accounts, please contact a customer service representative at any of our convenient locations.


Personal Checking

Our basic checking account is designed for a person who does not write a lot of checks or keeps a moderate balance in the account. You can open the account with a minimum deposit of $50.00. The monthly maintenance fee is $5.00 and the Customer Debit Fee is $.20 per debit or withdrawal, but you can avoid both charges by keeping a daily minimum balance of $500.00.


Flat Fee Checking

If your account has a lot of activity or maintains a low average balance, this is the solution for you. Open this account with a minimum deposit of $50.00 and enjoy unlimited check writing for a flat monthly maintenance fee of $10.00 per month.

 

Student Checking

Students need an account that keeps up with a hectic schedule. Designed for full time students through the age of 22, Student Checking allows unlimited access to any South Georgia Banking Company ATM at no charge. The account can be opened with a minimum deposit of $50.00 and there is no minimum balance requirement, monthly maintenance fee or per debit charge. When you turn 23 years old, a $10 monthly maintenance fee will apply.
