Everyone can have a low cash moment.
We're here to help when you do.
Low Cash Mode is now available for all Virtual Wallet products.
We believe how you handle overdrafts should be in your control, not just your bank's.
Many banks will charge you multiple overdraft fees a day. Others may promise no overdraft fees but will return all items leaving you with unpaid bills. Low Cash Mode gives you more control when your balance is low.
Wouldn't it be great if you could make payment decisions about your account?
Built on patents-pending technology, Low Cash Mode comes with PNC’s industry-leading Virtual Wallet® and is available through the PNC mobile app.[2,3]
Manage your Spend account when your balance is low. With Low Cash Mode, you can use Intelligent Alerts, Extra Time and Payment Control to help you avoid overdraft fees.

In order to avoid overdraft fees, you must bring the available balance in your account to at least $0 before your Extra Time expires. If you make a deposit, the time it takes for your deposit to be reflected in your available balance and for those funds to become available to you will vary based on the deposit type and time. Depending on your deposit type or your deposit time, your deposit may not be available before your Extra Time period expires, and you may incur overdraft fees. See your Funds Availability policy for more information. Overdrawing an account, maintaining a negative available balance for any period of time, and returning transactions as unpaid may have other consequences, including account closure or negative impacts to your ability to obtain financial services including loans, deposit accounts, and other services at PNC and other institutions.
Low Cash Mode is only available on the Spend account of your Virtual Wallet product.

Debit card transactions do not qualify for Payment Control. When you choose to return an item that has been presented to PNC for payment, we will return the item to the payee’s bank for insufficient funds, and the payee will not receive payment from PNC. You may still have an obligation to pay the payee for goods, services or other products. PNC is not responsible for satisfying any obligations between you and the payee or any other party with respect to an item you decide to return. Before choosing to return an item, you should consider rules the payee may have or actions the payee may take on late/returned payments. Overdrawing an account, maintaining a negative available balance for any period of time, and returning transactions as unpaid may have other consequences, including account closure or negative impacts to your ability to obtain financial services including loans, deposit accounts, and other services at PNC and other institutions.
PNC will honor decisions to pay items at our discretion and does not guarantee that all items will be paid.
PNC Alerts are free to customers. However, third party message and data rates may apply. These include fees your wireless carrier may charge you for data usage and text messaging services.
