Insights

For the average monthly balance, we divide the sum of the ending posted balance for each day in the statement period by the number of days in the statement period. Please note that your account statement only shows ending posted balances and an average balance reflected by those ending posted balances. The ending balance for any day is the opening balance for the next day.

For the monthly fee waiver, we count all ACH direct deposits that post to your account during the account statement period, excluding the last day of the period. ACH direct deposits that post on the last day of the statement period are counted in the following statement period.

Posted to your eAccess Account during the statement period for CheckCard activity and posted in the most recent billing cycle for your credit card account for credit card activity.

For the average monthly balance, we divide the sum of the opening posted balances for each day in the statement period by the number of days in the statement period. Please note that your account statement only shows ending posted balances and an average balance reflected by those ending posted balances. The average balance shown on the account statement is not used for purposes of the monthly fee waiver. The ending balance for any day is the opening balance for the next day.

Qualifying first-lien home mortgage loans must be serviced by Regions, must not be past due or in default and do not include home equity loans or home equity lines of credit, or construction, manufactured housing and business loans.

Good standing means you are not past due or in default under your credit agreement.

Regions Relationship Rewards program allows you to earn points for your Regions personal banking activities. The Relationship Rewards $10 annual fee will be waived or refunded if you have a Relationship Rewards Credit Card, ACH direct deposits (such as a recurring payroll or government benefit deposit) to your Regions checking account, or if you have certain types of Regions checking accounts. Visit www.regions.com/relationshiprewards for the full terms of the rewards program.

ATM fees charged by owners/operators of non-Regions ATMs may apply. If you provide a nonmilitary ID when opening or using your Regions account, our systems may not recognize that you qualify for the fee waiver on two transactions at non-Regions ATMs per statement period.
