Overdraft Protection

An Extra Level of Protection for your Accounts.

Overdraft protection acts as a safety net on those occasions when you have insufficient funds to pay for a transaction. Instead of an item or transaction being returned or declined, it may be paid using one of Glendale Area Schools Credit Union overdraft options.

Glendale Area Schools Credit Union offers two types of services to protect you from experiencing an overdraft when you have insufficient funds. Both options, using your Glendale Area Schools Credit Union VISA line of credit and Courtesy Pay, are based on what’s in your best interest and are your choice. We’ll ask you how you want overdrafts handled and you’ll need to opt in to receive these extra levels of protection.
