* SpendShield is a service we provide to cover overdrafts from your checking account. As long as your account is in good standing, we will pay your overdrafts that are created by check, in-person withdrawal, ATM withdrawal, or other electronic means. Overdraft services will be restricted if your checking account has a negative balance for 20 or more days or if any loan accounts with PeoplesChoice are not current. Overdraft services could also be restricted at the discretion of PeoplesChoice Credit Union.
Maine’s lowest fees guaranteed
PeoplesChoice Checking with SpendShield is a free checking account with no monthly fees, and it comes with the lowest overdraft charges in the state. If you happen to overdraw, we provide a $15 buffer before any fee is charged.
