Basic Free Checking Account
Our Basic Free Checking account comes with no fees, and pays interest on your account's entire balance. There is no minimum balance requirement, and only a minimum $25 deposit is required to open the account. Basic Free Checking Account holders also receive a free Visa debit card and access to the free UChoose Rewards Program, which lets you earn rewards for simply using your checking account as you normally would. This is a great free checking account option for every customer, especially those who are just getting started and those that don't keep a high balance in their account.
Bonus Debit Checking
Community First Credit Union offers a Bonus Debit Checking account that is completely free, and also only requires a $25 minimum deposit to get started. This account comes with access to thousands of ATMs nationwide that assess no surcharges for usage. This account also offers up to $10 in refunded ATM fees each month, so if you utilize an ATM at another financial institution, you will get those fees back. This checking account also offers the chance to earn bonus rewards points with periodic offers for special bonus incentives, to further stretch your budget and reward you for being a Community First Credit Union member. The Bonus Debit Checking account also includes free mobile deposits and free mobile banking.

You'll also receive your first box of checks free when you open your account. Advantage Checking account holders can also take advantage of our free Personal Financial Management tool, to help you maximize your money and make it work harder for you.
