Privilege Pay: Important Information about Usage & Fees

With Privilege Pay, the credit union will extend the courtesy of paying your checks or other transactions when you do not have sufficient funds in your checking account. The credit union does not encourage you to overdraw your account. We understand that mistakes can happen – and Privilege Pay can save you the embarrassment of a bounced check and help you avoid merchants costly return check fees. If you choose to otherwise use Privilege Pay for an emergency need, we suggest writing a single check for the funds you need, in order to minimize the fees that you incur. There is a fee for this service.

Optional: You may opt out of this service at any time.

Available Balance: The credit union will use your Available Balance when determining if you have sufficient funds to pay an item. Your available balance may be different from your ledger and/or current balance, depending upon pending transactions.

Everyday ATM/Debit Transactions: These are NOT covered unless you contact us to opt into coverage for these types of transactions.

How it Works: Privilege Pay allows you to overdraw your account in order to pay items presented by check, ACH, or bill pay. Everyday ATM/Debit transactions are only covered if you’ve opted into that type of coverage. You can view your Privilege Pay usage at any time by reviewing your statement or Online Banking history.

Clearing Order: Checks clear in check number order; ACH debits clear in the order that they are presented from the Federal Reserve; and ATM/Debit transactions clear in the order that they are presented from our card processor.

Other Overdraft Options: Market USA offers alternative overdraft services such as overdraft lines of credit and automatic transfers from other accounts, which may be a less expensive alternative to Privilege Pay. Ask us for details. If you have an existing overdraft protection from your savings account and/or overdraft line of credit, we will access those funds for payment prior to utilizing Privilege Pay.

Privilege Pay Limits: This service is not available for everyone. If you are eligible for the service, it is automatically added to your checking account(s) for coverage of checks, ACH, or bill pay transactions – everyday ATM/Debit transactions are only covered if you’ve opted in for said coverage.

Restoring a Positive Balance: You should make every effort to bring your account to a positive balance as quickly as possible. If, after 30 days, your account has not been restored to a positive balance, your Privilege Pay service will be suspended and the credit union will proceed with collection efforts.

Rights Reserved: Market USA will normally pay overdrafts within Privilege Pay limits; however, payment is a discretionary courtesy and not a right or obligation. We may refuse to pay an overdraft for you at any time even if we have previously paid overdrafts for you. This Service may be withheld at any time without notice or cause.
