Flexibility And Earning Power
With Fortis Edge Capital, you have options for how you can make your money work for you. If you are planning to maintain a higher balance, but still want the flexibility of having funds in a checking account, our High Yield account is probably right for you. You'll earn a steady 0.05% on all of your balances below $10,000, and a higher 0.08% on anything above that amount, without a cap. This is great if you want to earn a higher interest rate without locking your money into a Money Market or CD. Of course, if you are looking for an even higher rate of return, we offer great terms and rates on those too.
An Account with Perks
In addition to the higher interest rates that you'll earn on your balances above ten thousand, you'll also have access to our your funds through our Online Banking and mobile app twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. You can manage your funds, transfer balances, pay bills, and chat with a member representative using our secure chat feature. You'll also pay no monthly minimum balance fee as long as you keep your funds above $10,000. If that threshold seems too high, avoid monthly fees by opting for a Free Checking or Feel Good Checking instead.

- Nearly 30,000 surcharge-free ATMs in the Co-op Network
- Over 5,000 surcharge-free Shared Branches in the Co-op Network
