*Free Deposits  Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nothing. With Affinity, you don’t pay deposit fees!

Regardless of what account you have with us, all members get free deposits. That means you can deposit as much cash and as many cheques in your chequing or savings account as you’d like – for free! If you’re a business or organization, that could mean a lot of extra dollars in your pocket that your current financial institution may not offer you. 

Every Affinity business chequing account includes the following:
  • night deposit access, offered at most of our locations. Give us a call at 1.866.863.6237 to find the one nearest you.
Other transactions
  • $1 for Interac e-Transfer† transactions (with the exception of the Business Select Chequing)
  • $2 for withdrawals at ATMs in Canada that don’t display the ding free® symbol
  • $5 for ATM withdrawals outside Canada
  • $1.25 for staff-assisted bill payments
