While other banks have eliminated free checking options, imposed new fees and cancelled debit card rewards programs on their free or lower-cost checking accounts, Sun National Bank remains committed to providing customers with a robust array of desirable banking services, including a checking option with no minimum balance and no monthly service fee.  Boomerang Checking offers free convenience services, upfront cash incentives and ongoing cash rewards just for doing the things people do every day, such as dine out, buy gas, download an app or shop.

Sun's new Boomerang checking account has:

• No minimum balance requirement
• No monthly service fee
• FREE Visa® debit card
• Cash back – earn 10 cents cash back on every debit card purchase, anywhere you want to shop, unlimited
• FREE Visa Extras® Rewards Program – earn one point for every one dollar spent, to redeem for gift cards, merchandise, travel and more
• FREE online banking and billpay
• FREE mobile banking
• FREE e-Statements
• FREE unlimited branch banking, at 60+ Sun retail locations

Sun customers can earn up to $100 cash just for opening a new Boomerang Checking account and activating certain e-services:  $50 for activating a new Visa Check Card and $50 for activating direct deposit of payroll, social security or pension funds.  

"While other banks want their customers to pay them for using their products and services, Sun would rather pay you, the customer," said Thomas X. Geisel, Sun National Bank President and CEO.  "Sun's Boomerang checking account can be entirely free, because customers can eliminate minimum balance requirements and unnecessary fees.  Plus, we take free a step further with cash back and a desirable rewards program.  We appreciate our customers and are committed to providing them with choice, flexibility and perks they can't get anywhere else."

Sun National Bank products and services provide value, convenience, functionality and, overall, the ability for customers to select features based on personal preference when it comes to banking.  Boomerang customers will enjoy the benefits of a personal checking option that fits their lifestyle, whether they prefer online and mobile banking or the features of a more traditional account, with paper checks and statements.  Boomerang Checking e-statements are free, and paper statements are available for just $5 per month.  Customers who like to use paper checks receive their first order of checks free and can write up to five free checks each month (additional checks written are only 50 cents each).
