Why TruWest

Unexpected expenses happen. Make sure you're covered.

Overdraft Privilege

We understand that unexpected expenses may occur at inconvenient times. That is why we provide our members with a discretionary Overdraft Privilege program that allows us to pay your items rather than returning them, should you overdraw your account¹. This saves you from the fees normally charged by merchants for items returned to them.
