Sweeps Accounts
Peoples Bank offers a wide range of sweep account options that provide our customers the ability to automatically transfer funds, so they can spend less time manually moving money and more time growing their business.
IntraFi® Network Deposits: As a proud member of the IntraFi® Network since 2005, Peoples Bank can give our customers the ability to bank at one financial institution while giving them the peace of mind that their funds are 100% FDIC insured. This program will separate out funds into the insurable amount and distribute them to financial institutions within the network. These accounts and funds can be viewed directly from the Peoples Bank online banking service at your convenience.
Lines of Credit Sweep: Sweep functions can be connected to lines of credit allowing you to sweep from or to that line of credit to fund a checking account or to pay down the line of credit when needed with excess funds.
Money Market Sweep: Maximizing your retained earnings on excess funds has never become easier with the automated sweep. Target balances may be established to ensure enough cash remains stabilized for operating expenses while excess funds are capturing the best possible rate of return.
Zero Balance Accounts: Protect your funds from fraud, by designating separate accounts for specific payment processing purposes and connecting sweep functions, restricting the total amount of funds that can be transferred.
