Discover our Great Northwest Checking

Yes, it's really checking.  And it earns more interest than most money market accounts.

Take one look and you'll notice that Great Northwest Checking is a whole lot more than just checking. For one thing, this account gives you a whole lot more interest.  Besides earning more than you would at a bank, you'll also get a larger national network of free ATMs (find a free ATM near you) and many money-saving bonus features.

Earn interest on your checking
Compounding interest is paid monthly if you keep a minimum balance in the account. In fact, the more you keep in your checking, the more you earn. See the Truth in Savings disclosure for balances to earn and for current yields.

Free checks and unlimited access
Receive all the personally imprinted checks you need at no additional cost. Your special member checks are printed with your name and address. There is no limit on how many checks you write, how often you use a debit card, and never a fee for talking to a teller. View our schedule of fees and charges for more information.

Bonus Features:
