Checking vs Savings Accounts

Like a savings account, a checking account is a personal deposit account. However, there are no limits to the amount of times you can withdraw from a checking account per month, making it the ideal companion for daily spending needs.

Need help deciding between our basic checking and interest checking account options? Contact us today or visit your nearest branch in Breese, Chester, Waterloo, Columbia, Dieterich, Edwardsville, Effingham, Lake Sara, Newton, Red Bud, St. Elmo, or Teutopolis, Illinois. Our knowledgeable staff can help you find the best account to meet your needs.
