More financial solutions.

1 Civic participates in select surcharge-free ATM networks. See the current list of locations at civicfcu.org/any-atm. Other ATM networks may charge an ATM fee that Civic will reimburse, up to a total of $20 per month per debit/ATM card, beginning on the first day of the month and ending on the last day. If you are eligible for an ATM fee reimbursement, funds are typically released by Civic to your account within two business days, but timing may vary.
