Using our Saving Cents option, every debit card purchase from one of our Checking accounts rounds up and the change is automatically transferred to your Armed Forces Bank Savings account.

1. Choose how much you'd like to round up your debit card purchases from your checking account. Options range from the nearest $1 to $5 increment.
2. Save every time you make a purchase. Each night we’ll round up the extra change and automatically transfer from your checking to your savings.
