    Your FAQs About Interest Checking Accounts

    If there are insufficient funds available in your account, incoming transactions will be declined and charged a fee up to five times in one day. For information on overdraft fees and overdraft-related interest charges, refer to our Miscellaneous Service Fees for Personal, Commercial, and Corporate Accounts.

    An Interest Checking account pays monthly interest on the balance of the account.

    Yes. Deposits up to $250,000 are FDIC insured.

    * Approved online applicants for domestic checking accounts will receive an email from noreply@amerantbank.com to get started with ClickSWITCH®. The email provides instructions on how to create an account with ClickSWITCH® to transfer over their direct deposits and more. Customers also have the option to disregard the ClickSWITCH® email and not use this service. The option to visit a branch to enroll in ClickSWITCH® is also available.

    1 At our discretion, we may change the interest rate and the annual percentage yield on the account at any time. Interest begins to accrue no later than the business day we receive credit for the deposit of noncash items (for example, checks). If you close your account before interest is credited, you will not receive the accrued interest. We use the daily balance method to calculate interest on the account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day.

    2 For additional fees, please refer to our Miscellaneous Service Fees Schedule.

    USA PATRIOT Act

    To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, the Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.

    What does this mean for you? When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents.

    Important Notice Regarding Wire Transfers

    IF WE DO NOT HAVE YOUR FUNDS TRANSFER AGREEMENT IN OUR FILES, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EXECUTE TRANSFERS.

    We value our relationship and it is important for us to safeguard your privacy and ensure that your funds are protected against fraudulent activity at all times. For this reason, we are providing you a link to our Electronic Funds Transfers Disclosure, Funds Transfer Agreement and contract.

    Customers who request wire transfers through an Account Officer, should download the new wire transfer “Wire Transfer Form” and Electronic Signature Agreement (E-sign Agreement) to authorize this type of transaction. The E-sign Agreement will only need to be signed the first time a wire transfer is initiated.
