What you need to know.
Required Minimum to Open: $100
Monthly Account Maintenance Fee: $22
There is no Monthly Account Maintenance Fee
for the first three statement cycles.
4 Ways to Avoid the Monthly Account Maintenance Fee:
Each month the PNC business checking account will be automatically reviewed to see if it qualifies for an account maintenance fee offset by meeting any ONE of the following three conditions:
Maintain $5,000
Average Monthly Collected Balance in this account.
OR
Use a linked PNC business credit card to make a minimum of $5,000 in eligible purchases.[7,8,9]
During the billing cycle ending immediately prior to the date the Monthly Account Maintenance Fee is to be assessed to the PNC business checking account.
OR
Maintain an eligible linked Merchant Account and generate a minimum of $5,000 in qualifying monthly deposits.[10,11,12]
The business checking account receiving deposits associated with an eligible Merchant Account is the only account eligible to avoid the monthly account maintenance fee.
OR
Maintain $20,000 average combined collected balance in a linked PNC business checking account and business money market account.[8]
For each months’ statement cycle, we will review each of the three options above to determine if any one option is met to avoid the Monthly Account Maintenance Fee. You do not need to qualify in the same manner each statement cycle.
