Personal Checking Accounts

It all boils down to one idea - total convenience

Midwesterners have different lifestyles and financial strategies. So there's no reason to shoe-horn everyone into one standard checking account. You can pick an account with straightforward simplicity, one that pays interest on deposits, or one that's packed with banking perks. Whatever your choice, you'll also enjoy digital banking tools, ATM access and more.

All our accounts feature:

  • Online Banking and electronic Bill Pay
  • Free Mobile Banking with our highly rated app
  • Rate discounts on new Personal Installment Loans and Home Equity Lines of Credit
  • Convenient mobile check deposit with your smartphone camera
  • Link your account to your smartphone for easy one-tap Mobile Wallets payments
  • Debit card for fast purchasing power and added security protection (card can be turned "off" if you misplace it and back "on" when you find it)
  • Paper-free eStatements allow you to access your account data online
  • Access to Midstates Bank's ATM network
  • Free box of basic checks at account opening
  • Electronic alerts to notify you of significant account activity
  • Access live text customer support 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
