So Many Benefits
I joined Fairwinds Bank and opened a UCF Student Checking Account.
I like the fact that it's so convient that I can get to the bank right on campus, and I can also connect my UCF ID to my account. If I want to pay for items and services with my student ID instead of having to pull out my new debit card each time.
Plus, I can not only use the Fairwinds ATMs around campus, but the Presto! ATMs at Publix to make withdraws and deposits without any charges, and since there are a few Publix near me it works out great.
I'm glad I decided to open an account, and I look forward to seeing what else they can do for college students.

Easy, Fast, & Convenient
I’m so glad to have opended up my account with fairwinds, the benefits of being a cardholder are great and the site & app are very easy to navigate! I went to a branch on my campus to open an account and it was such a nice experience. The people were friendly and the process was super easy, I was even able to get it done in-between classes. Overall, I’m very happy with the choice I made to make Fairwinds my bank!

Great Review
This is my first real checking account and I am very satisfied with it. I especially like how I am not charged a fee to thank money out of my account.

Became a member as a way to easily get money from the UCF as direct deposit.
