Standard Overdraft Coverage is a service we provide that may cover transactions if you overdraw the available funds in your account.
If we make Standard Overdraft Coverage available to you, we may pay your check, ACH and recurring debit card transactions even if you don’t have sufficient available balance in your account, which may result in an overdraft fee.

If you have a 62+ LifeGreen Checking account and do not meet the age requirement, your account will be converted to the standard LifeGreen Checking account and must meet the normal criteria to avoid the monthly fee.
To qualify for a LifeGreen Savings Account, you must have a Regions checking account. The minimum opening deposit amount for a Regions checking account is $50. An automatic transfer of funds of at least $10 from your Regions checking account to your LifeGreen Savings account in at least 10 of any of the 12 calendar months that precede the month of your account opening anniversary (your “Account Anniversary Month”) is required to earn a 1% annual savings bonus. The annual savings bonus is based on the average monthly balance for the 12 calendar months that precede your Account Anniversary Month. The annual savings bonus will be paid to your LifeGreen Savings account by the second business day of the month following your Account Anniversary Month. To receive the annual savings bonus, your LifeGreen Savings account must be open on the date the annual savings bonus is paid. Maximum annual savings bonus of $100. You are responsible for any tax due on any amount received under this offer. Fees could reduce earnings on the account.
