- Enjoy a free Debit Card, and unlimited transactions.
- Monitor funds, make transfers, and track balances via Online and Mobile Banking.
- Track expenses with convenient eStatements.

24/7 Access:
When you put your funds into an NCACU HSA Checking Account, you can make convenient payments for qualified medical expenses with a Debit Card or by check. You also gain 24/7 access with Online and Mobile Banking, while eStatements present all HSA expenditures in a given tax year in one place.
Earn a .50% APY*
You’ll earn interest on your HSA Checking Account, paid monthly. So as you gain valuable tax benefits today, you also receive a competitive return on your money.
Contribution Limits:
- $4,150 single coverage
- $8,300 family coverage
Individuals age 55 and older may be permitted to make an additional $1,000 “catch-up” contribution.
Funds Are Never Forfeited.
Unlike other types of tax-favored accounts, such as Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs), the money in your HSA Checking is yours — with no “spend it or lose it” stipulation. HSA funds can be used for non-medical expenses, but the funds will be subject to income tax and a 20% IRS penalty. (Penalty does not apply after age 65).
We recommend you save all HSA transaction receipts. If you have specific questions, please consult your tax advisor.
