The rights described in this section are in addition to and apart from any other rights.
Arbitration
(1) This section of this Agreement does not apply to any dispute in which the amount in controversy is within the jurisdictional limits of, and is filed in, a small claims court. We and you agree to arbitrate all other disputes and claims between you and us. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted. This arbitration agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into this Agreement, you and we are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.
(2) A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to us should be addressed to: Legal, BM Technologies, Inc., P.O. Box 278, Maple Shade, NJ 08052 (the “Notice Address”). The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (the “Demand”). If we do not reach an agreement with you to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, we or you may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by us or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or we are entitled.
You may download or copy a Notice Form and an Arbitration Initiation Form by selecting the following links:
Notice of Dispute
Arbitration Initiation Form
(3) The arbitration will be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org, or by writing to the Notice Address. The AAA Rules and the fee schedule therein set forth your limited obligation to pay filing fees. However, should you be unable to afford the filing fee as determined by the AAA Rules, we will consider in good faith any bona fide request to pay or reimburse such fees. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision are for the court to decide. Unless we and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearing that you attend will take place in the federal judicial district in which you reside. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
(4) The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific proviso is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void.
(5) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if we make any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to the Notice Address), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of change to the Arbitration Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between you and us in accordance with this provision. These arbitration provisions shall survive closure of your Account or termination of all business with us.
Effects of Arbitration: If either of you or us chooses arbitration, neither you or we will have the right to litigate the dispute in court or have a jury trial. In addition, you will not have the right to participate as a representative or member of any class of claimants pertaining to any dispute subject to arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any question as to the validity and effect of this class action waiver shall be decided solely by a court of competent jurisdiction, and not by the arbitrator.
Choice of Law
This Agreement is governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of Pennsylvania.

If we suspect that you may be engaging in or have engaged in a fraudulent, illegal or improper activity, including a violation of any terms and conditions relating to the Account, your access to the Account may be suspended or terminated. You understand that transactions in your Account may be suspended or terminated if an access device has been reported lost or stolen or when we reasonably believe that there is unusual activity in your Account. You will cooperate fully with us to investigate any suspected illegal, fraudulent or improper activity related to your Account.
Password ProtectionYou will not disclose your password to access the Website, the App, or this Account to any person. You will notify us immediately if your password is compromised or lost.
Security FeaturesWe strongly suggest that you use a web browser with 256-bit encryption. Regardless of whether you use a web browser with security features, we are unable to ensure that the data transmitted by you to us, or from us to you, will not be intercepted by third parties. To further ensure the security of your account, we encourage you to avoid transmitting confidential information through email communications.
AmendmentsWe may change this Agreement at any time and, if such change will adversely affect your Account, we will give you notice before the effective date of the change as required by applicable law. We may provide this notice to you by emailing the notice to you directly or by posting the notice on the Website or the App through which you access this Account.
Consumer Information and Credit ReportsBy applying for and maintaining an Account, you authorize the Bank, BM Technologies, Inc., and their respective agents, suppliers, partners, and subcontractors to utilize checking account reporting companies to obtain information about you and your banking history, and to contribute information about you and your Account to checking account reporting companies and credit reporting agencies. Any information we contribute may appear on your consumer credit report or other reports maintained by checking account reporting companies and credit reporting agencies and could impact your credit score and eligibility to open bank accounts in the future. To the extent permitted by law, we may utilize consumer reporting software (e.g. Early Warning Services) to determine whether you continue to meet the requirements for your Account and in connection with any service that you request or receive.
Co-Owner Acceptance for Shared AccountsBy Inviting a trusted person to become a shared owner on your existing account, you are authorizing a change in ownership once the trusted person accepts and is added to your account. All funds existing in the account at the time the Shared account is established and all future funds are equally owned by both of you and you become co-owners.
RIGHTS OF CO-OWNERS: Co-owners of shared accounts are joint tenants with right of survivorship. Each co-owner has equal powers with respect to the account. Either owner can transact without the other. This includes but is not limited to the ability to make payments, withdraw or transfer funds, change the email address to which statements /notices are sent, and/or close an account. We may act on instructions from a co-owner without the consent of the other co-owner. No co-owner, however, may remove the name of another. Each co-owner will function as the other co-owners’ agent when conducting business with us with respect to the account. We are not subject to and will not be bound by any agreement made between or among co-owners. Notice to one (1) co-owner at the email address in our records will be considered notice to all co-owners. Each of you guarantees that the signature of the other co-owner is genuine and agrees to provide any endorsement that may be missing on a deposited item.
DEATH OF A CO-OWNER: Funds from a shared account can be paid to or on the order of either co-owner of the account, even if that co-owner is not alive at the time the payment is made. On the death of a co-owner, the funds in the account belong to the surviving co-owner. The estate of the deceased owner will have no rights to the account and the account must be closed by calling our T-Mobile MONEY Specialists at 866-686-9358 as it no longer meets the definition of a shared account. Any remaining funds can be transferred to the surviving co-owner’s Checking account. Note: We will require submission of a death certificate.
LIABILITY OF CO-OWNERS: Your liability as a co-owner of a shared account is joint and several, which means we can enforce this agreement against each co-owner. We can also seek repayment of any amounts owed to us by either co-owner without having to seek repayment from both co-owners. If one or more co-owners owe us money that is due, we can use the funds in the Shared account to pay the debt without notice to the other co-owner. Subject to applicable law, each co-owner is responsible for his or her own tax obligations. For tax reporting purposes, we will issue a 1099 only to the primary owner on the account. The primary owner is the initiator of the invitation. We will comply with attachments, liens, and/or other forms of legal process received and may hold or remit funds belonging to a co-owner from the Shared account.
Closing the AccountWe may close your Account at any time for any reason and without notice to you. We will not be liable to you for dishonoring any check, credit, or other payment order presented for payment after we close your Account. We will mail you a notice that we have closed your Account and tender the Account balance, less any fees or charges, by mail. If there is a balance in your Savings account, the remaining funds will be disbursed through an automatic/immediate transfer to the open checking account prior to account closure.
You may close this Account at any time as long as you do not have a negative balance. Please note that you will be responsible for any fees, penalties or charges owed to us. To the extent your Account has 1) a negative balance, or 2) a balance of less than $50 with no activity, for a period of 180 days, your Account may be closed and a check in the amount of any remaining balance in your account will be mailed to your last known address. If your account balance was negative at the time of closing, you will continue to be responsible for paying us the amount of your negative balance and we may report this information to outside credit reporting agencies or databases.
AssignmentYou may not assign or transfer any rights or obligations you may have under this Agreement, or with respect to the Account, without our prior written consent. We reserve the right to transfer at any time any right or obligation under this Agreement without your consent unless otherwise stated herein.
DepositsAny items accepted for deposit (including items drawn “on us”) will be given credit in accordance with our Funds Availability Disclosure Policy and our Mobile Check Deposit Terms and Conditions, as applicable. We are not responsible for transactions initiated through mail or outside depository until we actually receive and record them. All transactions received after our “daily cut-off time” on a business day we are open or received on a day in which we are not open for business will be treated and recorded as if initiated on the next following business day that we are open. Daily cutoff times and business days are listed in the Funds Availability Policy Disclosure section of this document. We may refuse a deposit, limit the amount of a deposit, or return all or a portion of a deposit. Deposits are subject to verification by us.
Mastercard rePower® Deposits (Not available for Savings account)
You may use the Mastercard rePower® network to add funds to your Checking account by asking the cashier at a participating merchant to load cash directly to your T-Mobile MONEY Debit Mastercard®. There is a $20 minimum deposit to use this service. The merchant will charge a fee at the time of the transaction that must be paid in cash. In most cases, this fee will be $5.00 or less. However, the amount of this fee may vary from merchant to merchant. We do not control or receive any benefit from these fees. Limits may apply to the frequency and amount of deposits made through this channel. These limits are subject to network and merchant rules and may change from time to time.
Cash DepositsWe do not accept cash deposits through the mail. In the event that cash deposits are received, the cash will be returned to you at the address on file. We are not liable for any deposits, including cash, lost in the mail, lost in transit or not received by us.
Third Party ChecksWe will not accept third party checks for deposit. In the event that we receive a third party check, we will not deposit the check into the Account. Third-party checks will be returned to the sender via U.S. mail and we will not be liable for any checks that may become lost in the mail.
EndorsementsAny check or other item submitted for deposit must be endorsed exactly as it was made payable. You warrant that all endorsements on items deposited to your Account are genuine. Any endorsement must be placed in the 1-inch area starting at the left side on the back of an item and the remaining area on the back of the item may not contain any preprinted, stamped or handwritten information and must state either “For Remote Deposit Only” or “For Mobile Deposit Only” for mobile checks deposited. If you fail to do this, you may be required to reimburse us for losses incurred. In the absence of endorsement, you authorize us to supply any missing endorsements if items are made payable to you or your order and you have not endorsed them.
Deposited Items ReturnedIf final payment is not received on any item you deposited to your Account, or if any direct deposit, automated clearinghouse deposit or electronic fund transfer to your Account is returned to us for any reason, you agree to pay us the amount of the return. We may charge any Account of which you are an owner or re-present any item you deposit with us that is returned to us unpaid without prior notice to you. Please be advised that if your third party bank returns an Automated Clearing House(“ACH”) transaction to BM Technologies, Inc., as agent due to insufficient or unavailable funds, we will automatically re-attempt to successfully complete the transaction with your bank up to 2 additional times, as permitted by law.
You authorize us to attempt collection of previously returned items which you deposited. In our attempts to collect these items, you agree that we may allow the payor bank (the bank on which the item is drawn) to hold the item beyond its midnight deadline. If an item you deposit is returned unpaid, you waive the requirement for notice of this return. If a claim is made on any item, subsequent to final payment, on the grounds that the item was altered, bears a forged or unauthorized endorsement, or was not otherwise properly payable, we may withhold credit for the item from your account until final determination of the claim. In addition, we will not be liable for a check or draft or other item that you deposit that has been forged or altered in such a way that a reasonable person could not discover the forgery or alteration.
Direct DepositsIf, in connection with a direct deposit plan, we deposit any amount in this Account which is claimed by the federal government or any state government for any reason, you authorize us to deduct the amount of liability from this Account or from any other Account you have with us, without prior notice and at any time, except as prohibited by law. We may also use any other legal remedy to recover the amount of liability.
Early Payroll Direct Deposits
Funds from payroll-related direct deposits may be made available up to two days early. Early access to payroll deposits applies to the direct deposit of funds from your employer. Employer direct deposits vary and, as a result, it is not possible to guarantee early access to your pay. Factors that will affect this include the sender’s deposit description used and the timing of their submission of deposit. In order to provide this service, we generally post such deposits on the business day we receive notice that the deposit is scheduled, which may be up to two (2) business days earlier than the payer’s scheduled payment date. In general, benefit checks (direct deposit or otherwise) from the federal or state government will not be eligible for early access based on the parameters we use. As an example, benefits that generally would not receive early access include but are not limited to unemployment, retirement, pension, civil service, railroad retirement and veteran’s payments.
Checking Account Withdrawals
You may withdraw or transfer all or any part of the Account balance at any time on forms approved by us. We may charge your Account for a check, even though payment was made before the date of the check. The fact that we may honor withdrawal requests which overdraw the finally collected Account balance does not obligate us to do so unless required by law. Withdrawals will first be made from collected funds and we may, unless prohibited by law or our written policy, refuse any withdrawal request against unavailable funds, even if our general practice is to the contrary. We reserve the right to refuse any withdrawal or transfer request which is attempted by any method not specifically permitted which is for an amount less than any minimum withdrawal requirement or which exceeds any frequency limitation. Even if we honor a nonconforming request, repeated abuse of the stated limitations (if any) may eventually force us to close this Account.
You agree to maintain sufficient available funds on deposit to cover all items presented for payment against your Account. If you do not, payment may be refused. We reserve the right, without prior notice to you, to either pay or return any item presented for payment against insufficient or unavailable funds. We are under no obligation to honor post-dated checks, with or without notice by you. Post-dated checks may be paid upon receipt from your account as any other check which is properly dated.
You agree immediately upon notice from us to deposit funds sufficient to cover any overdraft. If we choose to honor any debit item that overdraws the Account, we do so at our discretion and will not be obligated to do so thereafter. If you fail to pay an overdraft that has occurred on your Account, we may report this information to outside credit reporting agencies or databases.
We will pay checks presented for payment against your Account in the posting order, as sorted by serial number, if applicable, as described below.
We will provide you with 3 starter checks at no charge. If you would like to order checks, we recommend using Carousel Checks because unlike other check printers their checks meet our technical specifications. We do not have a direct relationship with Carousel Checks or receive any financial incentive if you choose them as your check printer. Whether you choose to order checks from Carousel Checks or another check printer, please be aware that we are not responsible for any fees issued by the check printer or misprints of the account or routing number or other information, quality of checks, or costs that may result.
Typically, we will post credits first and will pay all other items by type in the date and time order of the transaction received unless it is a check or a converted check that contains a serial number or b) a date and time stamp is not present. Items with serial numbers will be paid in serial number order and items without date and time stamps will be paid in the order they are received. We reserve the right to change the posting order presented to your Account, for payment, at any time without notice to you.
ACH and Wire TransfersThis Agreement is subject to Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code in the state in which you have your Account with us. If you originate a funds transfer and you identify by name and number a beneficiary financial institution, an intermediary financial institution or a beneficiary, we and every receiving or beneficiary financial institution may rely on the identifying number to make payment.
We may rely on the number even if it identifies a financial institution, person or account other than the one named. You agree to be bound by automated clearinghouse association rules. These rules provide, among other things that payments made to you, or originated by you, are provisional, until final settlement is made through a Federal Reserve Bank or payment is otherwise made as provided in Article 4A-403(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code. If we do not receive such payment, we are entitled to a refund from you in the amount credited to your Account and the party originating such payment will not be considered to have paid the amount so credited. If we receive a credit to an Account you have with us by wire or ACH, we are not required to give you any notice of the payment order or credit. ACH processing is provided by a third party financial institution.
2. You have registered through the Website or the App for perks with your T-Mobile ID; and
3. At least 10 qualifying transactions have posted to your Checking Account before the last business day of the month. “Posted” (“posting” and “post”) means that a given transaction has been finalized by the merchant and communicated to the bank. Posting does not always occur on the date the transaction was authorized.
Interest begins to accrue no later than the business day we receive credit for the deposit of noncash items (for example, checks). Interest on your Account will be compounded and credited on a monthly basis at the end of your monthly statement cycle. If your T-Mobile MONEY Account is closed before interest is credited, any accrued and unpaid interest will not be paid. Mobile deposits are subject to verification and not available for immediate withdrawal.
Tax WithholdingAt the time you open your account, you will provide us with a tax identification number (TIN), which you certify as correct under penalty of perjury. In accordance with prevailing law, we will use that number to report any interest or bonuses earned on your account to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). If you fail to provide us with a TIN, you do not provide the correct TIN, or you fail to certify the TIN, you may be subject to back-up withholding if the IRS notifies us that the furnished TIN is incorrect, you are notified by the IRS that you are subject to back-up withholding for failing to report all interest and dividend payments on your tax return, or your failed to certify to us that you are not subject to back-up withholding, we are required to withhold and pay to the IRS a percentage of any payment of interest on your account. If we do back-up withhold and later you are no longer subject to back-up withholding, you may have to contact the IRS to obtain a refund of the money withheld.
Right of SetoffWe may (without prior notice and when permitted by law) set off the funds in any and all of your Accounts against any due and payable debt you owe us now or in the future.
We will not be liable for the dishonor of any check when the dishonor occurs because we set off a debt against any and all of your Accounts. You agree to hold us harmless from any claim arising as a result of our exercise of our right of setoff.
EscheatmentWe are required by law to deliver to the applicable state agency any funds in an account if you do not have activity or we cannot locate you for a period of time as defined by applicable state regulation. We will provide applicable notices to you, as required by law. You agree that we are not responsible for any funds delivered to the state in compliance with the laws of the applicable state agency.
Court Attachments; IRS Levies; Adverse ClaimsIf your Account becomes subject to legal action, such as a tax levy or third party garnishment, we reserve the right to refuse to pay any money from your Account, including checks or other items presented for payment, until the action is resolved. If we are required to pay an attachment, garnishment or tax levy, we are not liable to you. Payment is made after satisfying any fees, charges or other debts owed to us. You agree that you are responsible for any expenses, including legal expenses and fees we incur due to a garnishment, levy or attachment on your Account. We may charge these expenses to your Account. Until we receive the appropriate court documents, we may continue to process transactions against your Account, even if we have received an unofficial notification of an adverse claim. You will indemnify us for any losses if we do this.
Arbitration
(1) This section of this Agreement does not apply to any dispute in which the amount in controversy is within the jurisdictional limits of, and is filed in, a small claims court. We and you agree to arbitrate all other disputes and claims between you and us. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted. This arbitration agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into this Agreement, you and we are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.
(2) A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to us should be addressed to: Legal, BM Technologies, Inc., P.O. Box 278, Maple Shade, NJ 08052 (the "Notice Address"). The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (the “Demand”). If we do not reach an agreement with you to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, we or you may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by us or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or we are entitled.
You may download or copy a Notice Form and an Arbitration Initiation Form by selecting the following links:
Notice of Dispute
Arbitration Initiation Form
(3) The arbitration will be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org, or by writing to the Notice Address. The AAA Rules and the fee schedule therein set forth your limited obligation to pay filing fees. However, should you be unable to afford the filing fee as determined by the AAA Rules, we will consider in good faith any bona fide request to pay or reimburse such fees. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision are for the court to decide. Unless we and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearing that you attend will take place in the federal judicial district in which you reside. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
(4) The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void.
(5) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if we make any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to the Notice Address), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of change to the Arbitration Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between you and us in accordance with this provision.These arbitration provisions shall survive closure of your Account or termination of all business with us.
These arbitration provisions shall survive closure of your Account or termination of all business with us.
Effects of Arbitration: If either of you or us chooses arbitration, neither you or we will have the right to litigate the dispute in court or have a jury trial. In addition, you will not have the right to participate as a representative or member of any class of claimants pertaining to any dispute subject to arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any question as to the validity and effect of this class action waiver shall be decided solely by a court of competent jurisdiction, and not by the arbitrator.
Choice of Law
This Agreement is governed by and interpreted under the laws of the State of Pennsylvania.
IndemnificationYou agree to indemnify and hold us, T-Mobile, and our affiliates, officers, directors and employees, agents and contractors harmless from any claim, action, demand, loss, or damages (including attorneys’ fees) made or incurred by any third party arising out of or relating to your use of the Service.
Limit on LiabilityIn no event shall we be liable for any act or omission of any third party (such as, for example, any provider of telecommunications services, Internet access or computer equipment or software) or any circumstances beyond our control (such as, for example, a fire, flood or other natural disaster, act of God, war, riot, strike, act of civil or military authority, equipment failure, computer virus, or failure or interruption of electrical, telecommunications or other utility services).
MiscellaneousWe will not be deemed to have waived any of our rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by us. No delay or omission on our part in exercising any rights or remedies will operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies or any other rights or remedies. A waiver on any one occasion will not be construed as a bar or waiver of any rights or remedies on future occasion.

Funds Availability Disclosure
We only accept items for deposit that are drawn on financial institutions located in the United States.THE EXPEDITED FUNDS AVAILABILITY ACT AND REGULATION CC OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD REQUIRE ALL BANKS TO NOTIFY DEPOSITORS OF THEIR FUNDS AVAILABILITY POLICIES. THIS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT IS DELIVERED TO YOU IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGULATION CC AND PRESENTS OUR FUNDS AVAILABILITY POLICIES.
DETERMINING THE AVAILABILITY OF A DEPOSITOur policy is to delay the availability of funds that you deposit in your Account. During the delay, you may not withdraw the funds in cash and we will not use the funds to pay checks that you have written.
The length of the delay is counted in business days from the date of your deposit. Every day is a business day except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays. If we receive your deposit prior to the applicable cutoff time on a business day, we will consider that day to be the day of the deposit. However, if you make a deposit after the cutoff time or on a day that is not a business day, we will consider that the deposit was made on the next business day we are open. The cutoff time for paper checks is 2 p.m. ET. The cutoff time for incoming wires is 6 p.m. ET. The cutoff time for mobile check capture and debit card deposit is 7 p.m. ET. The cutoff time for external transfers and bill pay is 9 p.m. ET. The cutoff time for ACH deposits, including direct deposits is 11 p.m. ET.
The length of the delay varies depending on the type of deposit and is explained below.
Same Business Day AvailabilityFunds from the following sources are available on the same business day we receive the deposit:
- Funds from electronic direct deposits
- Funds from ACH deposits
- Wire transfers
Next Business Day Availability
Mailed funds from the following sources are available the next business day after the banking day on which the mailed deposit is received:
- U.S. Treasury checks that are payable to you.
- Checks payable through Customers Bank.
- State or local government checks that are payable to you.
- Cashier, certified and teller’s checks that are payable to you.
- Federal Reserve Bank checks, Federal Home Loan Bank checks, and U.S. Postal Service money orders if these items are made payable to you.
Deposits made through the Mastercard rePower® network are available the next business day after the banking day on which these deposits are received. In many cases, however, cash deposits will be available sooner, including immediately after deposit. However, we may place longer holds on certain items for other reasons (see Longer Delays May Apply, below).
Other Mailed Check DepositsOur policy is to make the funds from other checks you mail to us that are ineligible for next day availability available as follows:
The first $225 of total checks received by mail and deposited for the day will be available on the first business day after the day of deposit. The remaining funds will be available on the second business day after the day of deposit.
Mobile check deposits are subject to the “Rules for Mobile Deposit Funds Availability” provisions under the Mobile Check Deposit Terms and Conditions section below.
Money Order GuidelinesAll money orders (U.S Postal service and non-postal) must be made payable to you.
- Mailed deposits of U.S. Postal Service money orders are made available on the next business day after the day we receive the deposit.
Transfer MoneyTo transfer the money as you request, we send instructions to the third-party bank via the ACH network to charge your other bank account. Because we do not know if you have sufficient funds at the third-party bank, we do not typically provide immediate availability. Limitations on transfers are set for security reasons and are not disclosed for that reason.
Unless longer delays apply, the balance will usually be available 2-4 business days after the day on which the transfer is initiated.
LONGER DELAYS MAY APPLYFunds you deposit by mailed check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:
- We believe a check you deposit will not be paid.
- You deposit checks totaling more than $5,525 on any one day.
- A check that has been returned unpaid is redeposited.
- You have overdrawn your Account repeatedly in the last six months.
- There is an emergency, such as failure of computer or communication equipment.
We will notify you by email if we delay your ability to withdraw funds for any of these reasons and we will tell you when the funds will be available. They will generally be available no later than the 7th business day after the day of your deposit. You may ask us if you need to know when a particular deposit will be available for withdrawal.
Electronic Fund Transfers: Your Rights and Responsibilities
This disclosure states the additional rights and responsibilities that you may have pertaining to Electronic Fund Transfers and applies only to deposit accounts established for personal, household or family use. The term “Electronic Fund Transfer” includes, transfers of funds initiated through an electronic terminal, telephone, magnetic tape, mobile device, or computer for the purpose of ordering, instructing, or authorizing a financial institution to debit or credit a deposit account. This includes, without limitation, ATM and Point of Sale (POS) transfers, direct deposits, pre- authorized withdrawals of funds, computer initiated transactions, electronic check conversion transactions and mobile banking. Online banking and bill payment are governed by a separate services agreement that is provided to customers. This disclosure does not change or modify this Agreement and it is not a contract.
Business Days:
A Business Day is every Monday through Friday, excluding Federal Reserve holidays.
ACH, Automatic and Preauthorized Transfers
You may make arrangements for certain direct deposits (such as some payroll deposits) to be made directly into your Account. You may make arrangements to pay certain recurring bills or to pay for purchases made through the Internet or telephone from your Account. You may transfer funds between your Accounts. Limitations on external transfers are set for security reasons and are not disclosed for that reason.
BM Technologies, Inc. places limits on the dollar amounts of both outgoing and incoming external transfers that you originate through the Service. While not generally the case, internal and external transfers may be limited to as little as $300 per day in aggregate (checking and savings) under certain circumstances. Certain limits also may be imposed on the frequency of outgoing and incoming external transfers or they may be altogether prohibited. These limits may change at our discretion, may be implemented without prior notice, and are not disclosed in detail for security reasons.
Electronic Fund Transfers Initiated by Third PartiesYou may authorize a third party to initiate electronic fund transfers between your Account and the third party’s account. These transfers to make or receive payment may be one-time occurrences or may recur as directed by you. These transfers may use the Automated Clearing House (ACH) or other payments network. Your authorization to the third party to make these transfers can occur in a number of ways. For example, your authorization to convert a check to an electronic fund transfer or to electronically pay a returned check charge can occur when a merchant provides you with notice and you go forward with the transaction (typically, at the point of purchase, a merchant will post a sign and print the notice on a receipt). In all cases, these third party transfers will require you to provide the third party with your account number and bank information. This information can be found in the Website or the App. Thus, you should only provide your bank and account information (whether over the phone, the Internet, or via some other method) to trusted third parties whom you have authorized to initiate these electronic fund transfers.
Examples of these transfers include, but are not limited to:
- Preauthorized credits. You may make arrangements for certain direct deposits to be accepted into your Account(s).
- Preauthorized payments. You may make arrangements to pay certain recurring bills from your Account(s).
- Electronic check conversion (not available for Savings account). You may authorize a merchant or other payee to make a one-time electronic payment from your Account using information from your check to pay for purchases or pay bills.
- Electronic returned check charge (not available for Savings account). You may authorize a merchant or other payee to initiate an electronic funds transfer to collect a charge in the event a check is returned for insufficient funds.
T-Mobile MONEY™ Debit Mastercard® Card TransactionsYou may access your Account by Automated Teller Machine ("ATM") using your T-Mobile MONEY™ Debit Mastercard® and your PIN (personal identification number) to:
- Get cash withdrawals from your Accounts (you may withdraw no more than $500.00 per day in aggregate (checking and savings)). Certain limits may be imposed on the number of ATM withdrawals you may make per day. These limitations are not revealed for security reasons.
- Get the Account balance of your Account(s) (some of these services may not be available at all terminals).
Note: Allpoint® ATMs vary by location, availability, and hours of operation and are subject to change. Find an Allpoint® Network ATM or Customers Bank ATM. If you use a non-Customers Bank ATM or non-Allpoint® Network ATM for a withdrawal, we will not charge you a fee but you may be charged a fee by the ATM operator even if you do not complete a withdrawal. If you obtain cash from a bank teller, the bank may charge a fee. This ATM fee or bank fee is a third party fee amount assessed by the individual ATM operator or bank only and is not assessed by us. This ATM fee or bank fee amount will be charged to your Account. ATMs may be added to or removed from the Allpoint® Network any time. Allpoint® ATMs may not be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The location, availability, and hours of operation may vary by merchant and is subject to change. The Allpoint® Network is generally updated on a weekly basis and it may take up to one additional week for the Allpoint® locator to reflect recently added or removed ATMs. As a result, we encourage you to check the Allpoint® locator frequently and before visiting an ATM to determine the closest in-network ATM. We also encourage you to check the ATM itself for any disclosed fees before withdrawing money. If you use a non-Allpoint® Network ATM for a withdrawal, you may also be charged a fee by the ATM owner/operator, even if you do not complete a withdrawal. You may also be charged a fee for a balance inquiry even if you do not complete a fund transfer. This ATM fee is a third-party fee amount assessed by the individual ATM operator and is not assessed by us.
T-Mobile MONEY™ Debit Mastercard® Card Point-of-Sale (‘POS’) TransactionsYou may access your Checking account to purchase goods (in person, online or by phone), or to pay for services (in person, online or by phone) at any location that accepts T-Mobile MONEY™ Debit Mastercard®.
You may not exceed $2,500.00 in POS Transactions per day with the T-Mobile MONEY™ Debit Mastercard® (PIN-based transactions may not exceed $2,500.00 and is a combined limit with POS transactions). Certain limits may be imposed on the number of POS transactions you may make per day. These limitations are not revealed for security reasons.
A hold may be placed on the funds available in your Account to cover the transaction. Held funds will not be available for withdrawal or check writing purposes during the hold period.
PIN-based transactions
The following transactions will require you to use your 4-digit PIN and must be made in person:
- Cash withdrawals at an ATM (daily limit of $500)
- Rental Vehicle transactions (Effective 10/01/2023)
Rental vehicle transactions require you to select "debit" to ensure you are authorizing the full amount that will be charged to your card. If you select "credit" or if a merchant's system defaults to a credit transaction, or if you are using a mobile wallet as your payment method, the transaction will be declined.
Some merchants may choose not to accept PIN-based transactions, in which case you may be unable to use your MONEY debit card to reserve or pay for a rental car reservation with those companies. Online/e-commerce transactions do not support entering your PIN. Be sure to read the rental car company's payment card policy for specifics about your rental.
Transactions through T-Mobile TRAVEL will continue to be accepted and will not require you to use your PIN.
Holds at Automatic Fuel Dispensers (AFD) - Effective 04/05/2023
Automated fuel dispenser (pay-at-the-pump) transactions at gas station merchants may result in temporary authorizations for amounts greater than the actual purchase amount. This difference in authorization hold is due to the actual amount being unknown when the request is submitted. Consistent with Mastercard® guidelines, the amount we may temporarily hold when you use your T-Mobile MONEY™ Debit Mastercard® at the pump will be $50.00 (even if your purchase is less than $50.00). This may decrease your available balance for a brief amount of time – typically one hour. Note: These holds apply to pay-at-the-pump (self-service) transactions. Holds will not apply to payments made via cashier in-store. To avoid a temporary hold, we recommend pre-paying inside.
