- Keep your balance at or above $300. Set up direct deposit or an automatic transfer from another account so your daily/average balance doesn’t fall below the minimum and trigger the monthly maintenance fee.
- Prevent overdrafts. Turn on low-balance alerts, keep a small buffer, and link a savings account or a line of credit for overdraft protection (or opt out of overdraft coverage) so you don’t incur overdraft fees.
- Use in‑network ATMs and limit transfers. Withdraw cash at Downtown Bank or partner ATMs (or use cash-back at retailers) to avoid out‑of‑network ATM fees, and consolidate or use fee‑free payment methods so you don’t exceed the three-transfer limit each month.
