Handling Business on the Go

Written by Reggie Rossignol | Oct 26, 2021 3:20:00 PM

Time is always of the essence when you have multiple roles to juggle. It can be hard to handle business during regular ‘business hours.’ We understand this. That's why Chesapeake Bank brings banking to you through the following ways:

  1. Online Account Opening – That’s right! You can open one of our personalized checking or savings accounts right from our website. We offer several accounts where you can choose the features and/or interest rate that you’d like. Then make your initial deposit online. It’s that simple. Open now

  2. Apply for a Mortgage – You may also apply for one of our home loans or learn more about grants and other special programs should you be considering the purchase of a new home or renovation in the near future. Apply now

  3. Online Banking - If you already have a checking or savings account with us, you should have access to our online banking portal. Within this site, you can transfer money, check balances, set up alerts, categorize transactions, customize your photo debit card, review statements, and even sign up to receive them electronically. Business customers will have significantly more features in their version of our online banking. [See the bottom of this post for more info.] – Enroll Now

  4. Mobile App – ‘On the go banking’ wouldn’t be complete without a mobile application. Our app has all of the same great features that you’ll find in our online banking portal. Additionally, you can make deposits by using the camera on your phone and manage your debit card.  Download Mobile App

  5. Text Banking – We’re excited to offer two ways to text our bank. The first is through our automated process. You can enroll in text banking by texting “ENROLL CHESBANK” to (855) 435-0049. After a brief verification that you’d like to receive texts, you will be able to text simple commands like BAL, HIST, or even XFER to make transfers and manage transactions.

    We also offer a text concierge feature that allows you to contact most of our branches by texting their main line. A representative that works at that branch will be happy to answer any questions that you have about banking. 

  6. Make a payment. For all customers that have a loan and a deposit account, online banking, mobile banking, and text banking can accommodate transfers (to make a payment) once your accounts have been added. But if you do not bank with us, you can still make a payment using your routing and account numbers in our loan payment portal.  We also have bill pay which includes the person-to-person P2P banking feature within our app and online banking.

When you have cash:

While the digital world is so easy to navigate, there are times that transactions include cash and must be handled on-site, even if it’s after hours. For these times we do have Night Drops for all of our branches in addition to ATM’s at 13 locations. Our Mathews location ATM also accepts deposits.

Business Owners, we've got you covered:

Our business owners can benefit from the same great features noted above, through the use of our Business Online Banking Platform. The business suite of services is enhanced to offer Remote Deposit Capture, Wires, ACH credit/debit, credit cards and more.

Our business development officers are ready to come on site to bring banking to you. Through a conversation, they can get the information they need to set up your accounts without you ever having to step in the branch.
