From financial planning, to making payments, to taking advantage of better interest rates, internal and external transfers are used for a variety of reasons. Transfers are an easy way to save you time by moving money electronically.
Needham Bank offers three different types of transfer options through NB Personal Online and Mobile Banking. You can transfer internally, externally and from your personal Needham Bank account to another customer’s personal Needham Bank account. Discover the different types of transfers we offer, how each transfer is used and how to access these transfer types through Personal Online and Mobile Banking.
Types of Transfers Offered
Internal Transfers
Allow instant transfers of funds between your personal Needham Bank accounts.
Internal transfers are perfect to use when you need to move money from your checking to your savings or vice versa.
Needham Bank to Needham Bank Transfers
Allow instant transfers of funds from your personal Needham Bank account to another customer’s Needham Bank account.
These transfers are great for sending funds to a mutual Needham Bank customer. All you will need is the first three letters of the recipient’s last name and their account number.
External Transfers
Allow quick and simple transfers of funds to and from your personal Needham Bank account to an account you have at another outside institution.
External transfers are used when you need to send money between your personal Needham Bank account and an account you have elsewhere. It is important to note that you must be an owner of the external account you are transferring to or from.
