Boost your savings with automatic transfers. Set them up to move money from your checking account to your savings account every week, month, or whatever frequency works best for you. Once the money is out of your checking account, you’ll be less tempted to spend it. Plus, there are no fees for standard transfers from your Flagstar checking account to your Flagstar savings account.¹

You can set everything up through online banking or Flagstar Mobile Banking. Just follow the steps below.

Automatic transfers between your Flagstar checking account and a savings account outside of Flagstar:

Before you begin, make sure you have the routing number and account number for your savings account at the other financial institution.

• Select External Account Transfer, then Continue.
• On the next screen, select Add a New Account, then enter the routing and account numbers for your savings account.
• Now, you can choose to verify your outside account with your login credentials (immediate) or trial deposits (2-3 days). Once the account is verified, you can continue setting up your automatic transfers.
• Select the From and To accounts, the amount to transfer, and the date to do it. You’ll also choose the Frequency and Duration.
• Write a good Memo line that will inspire you, like “My amazing new car,” “Peace of mind fund,” or “Saver of the century!”
