InBalance Checking Account Management Education Program

Each year, thousands of people lose their checking account due to financial mismanagement. They rely on expensive and inconvenient methods of bill paying and credit unions lose membership and business opportunities. InBalance is an online checking account management education program used to provide a second chance to members with past problems, and as a tool to bring the underserved and unbanked into the financial mainstream. Because InBalance is an online self-study program, users learn and test at their own pace. You are notified with the names of members who complete the program – members now fully prepared for the responsibility of a checking account.

Credit unions nationwide use InBalance as an enhancement to their education programs, as a tool for relaxing criteria for opening first accounts, and as a requirement for second chance checking.

InBalance is included in your BALANCE partnership. Add a link to your website for general education or just provide the url, www.getinbalance.org, to members you want to complete the program.
