Tired of paying bank fees?

If you’re new to Saskatchewan or just new to Innovation Credit Union, did you know you can bank FREE with our No-Fee Bank Account? There are no monthly fees. Zip. Nada. Zilch. Even Interac e-Transfers® are free and unlimited. In fact, all your debit transactions are completely free of charge. POS transactions, transfers, bill payments…buy, send, receive as many as you like each month. You’ll also enjoy free ATMs across Canada* with our ding free ATM network.

Think bank fees don’t add up? Some banks charge as much as $30/month in fees. That’s $360/year that should be in your pocket, not theirs. Having the right bank account can really make a difference!

Your No-Fee Bank Account also has no minimum balance requirement. That means no matter what your account balance is, you still get to enjoy free banking. It’s your money. You should decide how and when you can spend it, and not be penalized for it.
