Ledger Balance means the amount of funds in your account reflecting deposits and withdrawals that have posted to your account, and it does not reflect holds, outstanding checks, or any transactions we have committed to pay, but which have not yet been deducted from your account. The Ledger Balance only changes once at the end of each business day.   

The Available Balance is the amount of funds available for withdrawal, transfer, and authorization of transactions. The Available Balance reflects pending items and items on hold and any current-day online transactions, and it may change throughout the day. The Available Balance is the amount of money in your account you can use right now without causing an overdraft.

You may cancel a payment in Pay People at any time until the processing of the payment into the Recipient’s account has begun. This means that if the Recipient has not accepted the payment, you may cancel at any time by selecting Delete Payment for the scheduled payment.

It is a randomly generated one-time code used as an extra layer of protection to confirm your identity when you are accessing your eBanking profile. After you successfully enroll in eBanking, each time you access eBanking, you are able to choose the verification method you prefer, either text message or phone call. The one-time verification code (also known as one-time passcode) is sent by text or confirmed through an automated phone call to a phone number on file with us. By requiring the entry of a one-time verification code and the use of a phone number you have on record, fraud is prevented even if an unauthorized user learns your eBanking Username and Password.

You can access eBanking with a web browser that uses at least a 128-bit encryption.
