Sweep Services

Maximize your return on available fund balances by automatically transferring funds between your operating account and an investment or loan account. A sweep eliminates manual daily transfers and ensures that your money is always working for you.

Zero Balance Account (ZBA)

Use a ZBA to separate certain transaction activities like payroll from your operating account. The ZBA is tied to your company’s main operating account.

IOLTA Account

Law firms may utilize this account to earn interest on short-term client funds.
