Frequently Asked Questions

We’re an online bank created to provide people with flexibility in their banking. Funds are held by our parent company, PeoplesBank. Unlike many other online institutions, deposits with us are 100% insured – in other words there is no maximum amount of coverage. The bottom line: by banking with us, customers maximize convenience and minimize risk since all their money is backed by the security of a regulated bank. You can learn more about who we are here.

Our goal is to make banking as easy as possible while offering services traditional brick and mortar banks can’t. Like early access to paychecks, cash rewards on debit card purchases, and powerful ways to build savings. In other words, we help customers feel good about the way they bank. Customers manage their accounts through their smartphones, tablets or computers, with access available 24/7/365.

To help customers get a jump start on their savings, not only do we automatically round up every debit card purchase to the nearest dollar and deposit the spare change into their savings account, we match it. All new customers get a 100% match during their first 100 days. Customers who maintain an average daily balance of $3,000 will continue to receive a 100% match, and customers who maintain a balance below $3,000 will receive a 25% match.¹

As long as your employer offers direct deposit, you can take advantage of our Early Payday feature to access your paycheck up to two days early. Be sure to check with your employer as additional paperwork may be required. Early access to direct deposit funds depends on the timing of the submission of the payment file from the payer. We generally make these funds available on the day the payment file is received, which may be up to 2 days earlier than the scheduled payment date.²

ZYNLO does not offer checks for the simple reasons that they are more expensive, less environmentally friendly and can take longer to get your money to where it’s supposed to go. However, should you choose to order paper checks for yourself, we will support payment of any paper checks you write. Though we do encourage you to explore our easy to use bill pay and transfer functions, as well as our ‘Pay a Person’ options before ordering paper checks to see if they meet your needs.

Our automated bill payment feature ensures your payments will always be on time. Bill payment is easy to set up and can be found within the app, or through online banking.
