Experience the freedom of banking anywhere, anytime with a Salal checking account.
Our checking accounts have all the features you’d expect from a big national bank, but you also get the benefits of belonging to a member-owned financial institution. Since we have stakeholders, not shareholders, our profits go back to our members in the form of better rates, lower fees, and charitable giving.

All Salal checking accounts come with a wide range of great features, including free Mobile and Online Banking, free Mobile Wallets and Mobile Check Deposit, along with access to 40,000+ fee-free ATMs and nearly 5,800 Shared Branches nationwide.
