Your Business Checking Preferred Account Has Been Transferred to Business Checking Plus
We have enhanced our products to better meet your needs.
PNC is constantly exploring ways to enhance your experience with us. By simplifying our account offerings, we will be better able to serve your banking needs and provide you with options to manage your cash flow.
On January 17, 2020, PNC transferred your Business Checking Preferred account to Business Checking Plus, unless you recently requested your account to be changed to a different account prior to that date.
All transferred accounts kept the same account number and continue to use the same checks. Previously authorized payments and deposits to the account will continue, as well as preauthorized bill payments and transfers.
A detailed conversion packet was mailed to you in November 2019. It included the features, benefits and pricing for the account that you have been transferred to.
The Monthly Account Maintenance Fee will be waived for your first statement cycle following the transfer.

Monthly Account Maintenance Fee
See ways to avoid this fee below
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 to avoid the account maintenance fee by meeting any ONE of the following four conditions:
Maintain $5,000
Average Monthly Collected Balance in this account
OR
Use a linked PNC business credit card to make a minimum $5,000 in eligible net purchases[1,2,3]
during the billing cycle ending immediately prior to the date the monthly account maintenance fee would be charged to the PNC business checking account.
OR
Maintain $20,000 average combined collected balance in a linked PNC business checking account and business money market account[2]
OR
Maintain a linked PNC Merchant Services® account and generate a minimum of $5,000 in qualifying monthly processing deposits[2,4,5]
The PNC business checking account receiving PNC Merchant Services processing deposits is the only account eligible to avoid the monthly account maintenance fee.
The monthly statement cycle review checks all four options above to determine if one of the account fee options were met to avoid the monthly account maintenance fee - you do not need to choose one option or qualify in the same manner each cycle to avoid the fee.
Additional Notes About Your Account Transfer
- All accounts transferred kept the same account number and continue to use the same checks. Previously authorized payments and deposits to the account will continue, as well as preauthorized bill payments and transfers.
- The Monthly Account Maintenance Fee will be waived for your first statement cycle following the transfer. Review more details about when the Monthly Account Maintenance Fee and service charges will begin for your account.
