Characteristics and Fees of the Cuenta Popular® account

If you’re still unsure if this is the right account for you, check out our comparison table.

1Overdraft, insufficient funds, or unavailable funds charges will not be applied. Likewise, the Overdraft Policies of Banco Popular de Puerto Rico will not apply to, nor will they be available for this account. This means that we will decline and return as unpaid those transactions for which you do not have sufficient funds in your account. Although we will not allow you to overdraw your account in most cases, it is possible for your account to have a negative balance; however, in those cases, we will not charge you overdraft fees. This could occur, for example, when you authorize a payment with your debit card for an amount less than the amount received by the bank for your payment (for example, the added tip for a payment at a restaurant).

2If you do not make transactions in your deposit account (deposits, withdrawals, payments), inactivity charges will not be applied. However, the inactivity period remains in place, thus it is important that you continue making transactions in your account to avoid its status changing to inactive and your money being remitted to the Commissioner of Financial Institutions (OCIF, by its Spanish acronym), in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations. As a reminder, if you do not make any transactions in a 6-month period, your account will be considered inactive.

3You can use Easy Deposit service only at ATMs that feature the Easy Deposit logo. All cash deposited before 9:30 p.m. on business days will be available immediately for all types of transactions.
