You deserve to bank without fees

Help turn the tide on bank fees

For decades, banks have claimed their fees help customers make smarter spending decisions. But the truth is, bank fees are an institutional issue, not a personal one. Here are just a few of the communities hit hardest by bank fees - and the motivation for us to turn ours off.

  • Gen Z

    Each month, Gen Z pays four times¹ as much in bank fees as their parents - despite having far less money in their bank accounts.

  • Low-Income Savers

    Over half the fee income from mass-market checking accounts come from customers with "no more than a few hundred dollars" in the bank².

  • Communities of Color

    Black and Hispanic bank customers pay more than twice as much³ in monthly bank fees compared to white customers.

Fee-free banking at Amplify is not an add-on or a premium service - it's a standard benefit for every member, no matter how long you've been with the credit union. Here's how to benefit from fee-free banking.

¹BankRate crunched the numbers: the average member of Gen Z pays $19.13 a month in bank fees. Their parents (Gen X) only pay $4.48.
²This July 2022 piece from Bloomberg explains how a lot of banks that claim to offer "no-fee checking" actually charge their customers billions of dollars a year in fees.
³The numbers from that BankRate piece also show the racial disparity of bank fees.
