Presidential Bank: How to Apply

ONLINE APPLICANTS:

Click "Apply Online Now" above to complete the secure, new account application.

By choosing "eCheck", when completing the new account application, Presidential will draft a physical check to transfer funds from another bank account in your name at any other bank, anywhere in the United States, to make your initial deposit. eChecks can only be used to draft funds from a checking account.
eCheck service is FREE. Begin earning interest upon receipt of your eCheck deposit. eCheck deposits received by 12:00 noon ET on a business day are credited on the same day. Use eCheck to start earning interest FASTER!

Online applicants may also elect to mail in their initial deposit with the signature card printed out after the online application is submitted. However, no interest is earned until the initial deposit is received.

New accounts can also be funded from a current Presidential account.

MAIL-IN APPLICANTS:

Accounts may also be opened by mail. Simply click "Mail-In Application" above, print out and complete the new account application, and mail it in with your initial deposit.

New accounts may also be funded from a current Presidential account.

You can enter the information online before printing the form for convenience (there is no security risk in doing this, and you can not submit this form online.)

IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT

Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record required information that identifies each person who opens an account, as a part of ongoing federal anti-terrorism and anti-money laundering efforts. Therefore, when you open an account, we are required by law to obtain your name, address, date of birth, and other information that we believe will allow us to accurately identify you. We may ask to see a copy of your driver's license or other identifying documents. We may also ask for similar identifying information concerning individuals with authority or control over any account, even if it is not in their own name.

Presidential Bank reminds you that email is NOT a secure means of communication. We encourage you to maintain contact with us through by email, but please refrain from including personal information such as account numbers, Tax ID/Social Security numbers, passwords, etc. Help us keep YOUR personal information PRIVATE!
