A Free Checking Account with Great Benefits.

Checking Account

We have the ideal free share draft (checking) account to fit your needs.  Our checking account was designed to keep it simple and free!

You can join RFCU through our partnership with Financial Fitness Association (FFA) or as a Novartis employee or contractor.

Opening a Share draft (checking) is easy!  Already a member, simply complete the account change form and send it to us at ridgedale@ridgedalefcu.org, fax to 973-947-1001, or mail to our branch.

Not a member yet? You can establish your membership with a Share (savings) account, and open the Share Draft at the same time.  Complete the membership application and stop by the branch or email it to info@ridgedalefcu.org with a copy of your official ID (Driver’s License, State ID, Passport, etc.) and work badge.  If you choose to mail it to us, be sure to have the application notarized.
