Business Overdraft Services

Understand your options with overdraft services.

We offer two options for Business Overdraft Services.


Running a business can be unpredictable, and overdrafts can happen. We offer two ways to help manage them so you can choose what works best for your business. Review the options below to decide how you’d like us to handle transactions when your account doesn’t have enough funds. Please note, your selection doesn’t guarantee that a transaction will be paid, and fees or other costs may apply. You can update your preferences at any time.

Business Overdraft Privilege

This service comes standard with Flex Business Checking and Flex Business Checking Plus.

We may, at our discretion*, pay an item when the current balance1 in your business checking account isn't enough to cover the item(s), resulting in an overdraft. However, we do not guarantee that an item presented for more than your business account's current balance1 will be paid, resulting in the item being returned.

Checks, automatic bill payments (ACH), recurring debit card transactions, ATM transactions, one-time debit card transactions and other transactions that use your checking account number

  • $38 overdraft fee for each paid item
  • $38 non-sufficient funds fee for each returned item
  • Maximum of 4 combined overdraft and non-sufficient funds fees per business day
  • Negative balances should be repaid as soon as possible
  • An overdraft fee is assessed when your current balance1 isn't enough to cover an item at the time we pay it
When an item is $5 or less or when items cause your current balance1 to be overdrawn by $5 or less

Yes. You can remove this service at any time for checks, automatic bill payments, one-time debit card transactions, ATM transactions and other transactions made using your checking account number. Removing this service does not stop the payment of recurring debit card transactions because you pre-approved those transactions with the merchant. In that situation, if there are not enough funds in your account during nightly processing to cover the transaction, an overdraft fee may be assessed.

To opt out,

  • Call our Customer Care Center at 800.990.4828
  • Visit a nearby branch

*Examples of when the bank may not pay an item at our discretion include when your account is not in good standing, when you are not making regular deposits to your account or when your account has too many overdrafts.


Overdraft Account Transfer

This is an optional service that allows you to link your business checking account to another Atlantic Union Bank checking, money market or savings account to help pay items that will overdraw your account. Funds are automatically transferred to your checking account from the account you designate, up to the available amount in your designated account. Because funds are transferred in the exact amount needed, there is no negative balance for you to repay.

No overdraft fees are charged as long as there are sufficient funds in your designated account to cover an overdraft. However, transfers from a savings account to cover an overdraft in another account are subject to the excessive transaction activity fee, which is disclosed in your your business savings account overview guide.

Talk to your Relationship Manager to add this service.

You can request to remove this service at any time by contacting your Relationship Manager or visiting a nearby branch.
