Overdraft Protection
If you have ever overdrawn your checking account, you've experienced the embarrassment, inconvenience, and expense of bounced checks. Protect yourself and your credit record by establishing overdraft protection on your Alaska USA checking account
You can designate either a savings account, or Money Market account, or credit line loan with the same account number as your checking account. Then, if you overdraw your checking account, the overdrawn amount will be transferred from the designated account.
Record keeping is easy because you receive a notice whenever overdraft protection has been activated.
