Digital Banking FAQs

General

    If you forgot your password, you can reset your password online by clicking on the "Forgot Your Password?" link at fhb.com or using the FHB Mobile app. We will ask you to verify your identity via security code or by answering your security questions.

    If you forgot your username, you can use the "Forgot Your Username" link at fhb.com or on the FHB Mobile app, to recover your username. A link will be sent to your email address on file and you will be sent a security code via text or phone call to verify your identity. Once verified, your username will be displayed.

    If you have already tried this and still need assistance, call 643-4343 (1-888-643-4343 from the Continental U.S., Guam, and CNMI). Too many failed login attempts will lock you out of your online banking account.

      Once logged in to FHB Online, go to "Settings" then click "Profile". There you can update your email address and phone number. If you would like to change the address on any of your accounts, please Send a Secure Message in FHB Online by clicking the "Messages" link. Select "Change of Address" from the subject line drop down menu, then include your new address and each bank account that should be updated with the new address.

        With Online Banking you will be able to view 45 days of history for your deposit accounts; however, credit card accounts will show only history from the day you enrolled. As transactions post to your account, you can view them going forward. You will eventually be able to see as much as 36 months of past activity and 7 years of eStatements on your accounts. The amount of account activity information may vary when accessing the information via Quicken/QuickBooks. The FHB Mobile app displays up to 90 days of transaction history.

          If you need immediate attention, such as technical issues, stopping a payment on a Paper Check, reporting a lost or stolen card, or reporting an unauthorized transaction from one of your Accounts, call us at 844-4444 (or 1-888-844-4444 from the Continental U.S., Guam, and CNMI). For all other inquiries, please contact us through the Message section of your FHB Online service and we will respond within a few business days.

                Click on "Statements" then select "View Statements". Select the account and the month of the statement you would like to view, then click the "View and print document" button. We also recommend that you disable any pop-up blocking software enabled on your web browser.

                FHB Mobile

                You must first be enrolled for eStatements in FHB Online Banking under Statements > Preferences, before you are able to view eStatements in the FHB Mobile app.

                  Yes. Each time a new statement is available, you will be sent an email notification to the email address in your Online Banking profile. Should your email address change, please update your information by going to "Settings" then "Profile".

                    Statements are available online from 2022 onward and will be stored for up to seven years. Paper copies of older statements can be requested by sending us a secure message with the subject “Statement Copy Request”.

                      Statements are generally available for viewing 48 hours after the statement cut-off date (please allow additional time for weekends and holidays). If it's within 48 hours from the statement cut-off date, please contact customer service at 888-844-4444 for assistance. Or, if you have a combined statement, like with the paper statement, all combined account information will show up on a single statement listed under the primary account number (not under each individual account number).

                      Please note that for credit cards, you may not have a statement if your balance is zero and there were no transactions during the billing period.

                      Zelle[[®]]

                        Zelle[[®]] is a fast, safe and easy way to send money directly between almost any bank accounts in the U.S., typically within minutes[[#1]]. With just an email address or U.S. mobile phone number, you can send money to people you trust, regardless of where they bank[[#2]].

                          You can send, request, or receive money with Zelle[[®]].

                          • To get started, log into First Hawaiian Bank’s online banking or the FHB mobile app, navigate to “Payments” then "Send Money with Zelle[[®]]". To Enroll, accept the terms and conditions, provide your email address or U.S. mobile number and deposit account, and then you will receive a one-time verification code, enter it, and you're ready to start sending and receiving with Zelle[[®]].
                          • To send money using Zelle[[®]], simply add a trusted recipient's email address or U.S. mobile phone number, enter the amount you'd like to send and an optional note, review, then hit "Send." In most cases, the money is available to your recipient within minutes[[#1]].
                          • To request money using Zelle[[®]], choose "Request," select the individual(s) from whom you'd like to request money, enter the amount you'd like to request, include an optional note, review and hit "Request"[[#3]].
                          • To receive money, just share your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile phone number with a friend and ask them to send you money with Zelle[[®]].

                            If you have already enrolled with Zelle[[®]], you do not need to take any further action. The money will be sent directly to your bank account and will be available typically within minutes[[#1]].

                            If you have not yet enrolled with Zelle[[®]], follow these steps:

                            1. Click on the link provided in the payment notification you received via email or text message.
                            2. Select First Hawaiian Bank.
                            3. Follow the instructions provided on the page to enroll and receive your payment. Pay attention to the email address or U.S. mobile number where you received the payment notification - you should enroll with Zelle[[®]] using that email address or U.S. mobile number where you received the notification to ensure you receive your money.

                              Zelle[[®]] is a great way to send money to family, friends, and people you are familiar with such as your personal trainer, babysitter or neighbor[[#2]].

                              Since money is sent directly from your bank account to another person's bank account within minutes[[#1]], Zelle[[®]] should only be used to send money to friends, family and others you trust.

                              Neither First Hawaiian Bank nor Zelle[[®]] offers a protection program for any authorized payments made with Zelle[[®]] – for example, if you do not receive the item you paid for or the item is not as described or as you expected.

                                It's easy — Zelle[[®]] is already available within First Hawaiian Bank’s online banking and mobile banking app. Download the FHB Mobile app or sign-in online and follow a few simple steps to enroll with Zelle[[®]] today.

                                  No, First Hawaiian Bank does not charge any fees to use Zelle® in the FHB Mobile app for personal customers.

                                  Business customers must be enrolled for FHB Online Business Banking to use Zelle® with a small business checking account. FHB Online Business Banking is FREE for Priority Banking customers and $5.99 for all other customers. FHB Online Business Banking includes online banking, mobile banking, online Bill Pay, Zelle® and Entitlements. See FHB Online Terms & Conditions for details.

                                  Your mobile carrier’s messaging and data rates may apply.

                                    You can find a full list of participating banks and credit unions live with Zelle[[®]] here.

                                    If your recipient's financial institution isn't on the list, don't worry! The list of participating financial institutions is always growing, and your recipient can still use Zelle[[®]] by downloading the Zelle[[®]] app for Android and iOS.

                                    To enroll with the Zelle® app, your recipient will enter their basic contact information, an email address and U.S. mobile number, and a Visa[[®]] or Mastercard[[®]] debit card with a U.S. based account (does not include U.S. territories). Zelle[[®]] does not accept debit cards associated with international deposit accounts or any credit cards.

                                      When you enroll with Zelle[[®]] through your online banking account, or mobile banking app, your name, the name of your bank, and the email address or U.S. mobile number you enrolled is shared with Zelle[[®]] (no sensitive account details are shared – those stay with First Hawaiian Bank).

                                      When someone sends money to your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile number, Zelle[[®]] looks up the email address or mobile number in its "directory" and notifies First Hawaiian Bank of the incoming payment. First Hawaiian Bank then directs the payment into your bank account, all while keeping your sensitive account details private.

                                        You can only cancel a payment if the person you sent money to hasn't yet enrolled with Zelle[[®]]. To check whether the payment is still pending because the recipient hasn't yet enrolled, you can go to your activity page, choose the payment you want to cancel, and then select "Cancel This Payment."

                                        If the person you sent money to has already enrolled with Zelle[[®]], the money is sent directly to their bank account and cannot be canceled. This is why it's important to only send money to people you trust, and always ensure you've used the correct email address or U.S. mobile number when sending money.

                                        If you sent money to the wrong person, we recommend contacting the recipient and requesting the money back. If you aren't able to get your money back, please call customer service at (888) 643-4343 so we can help you.

                                        Scheduled or recurring payments sent directly to your recipient’s account number (instead of an email address or mobile number) are made available by First Hawaiian Bank but are a separate service from Zelle® and can take 1 – 3 business days to process.

                                        You can cancel a payment that is scheduled in advance if the money has not already been deducted from your account.

                                          Money sent with Zelle[[®]] is typically available to an enrolled recipient within minutes[[#1]].

                                          If you send money to someone who isn't enrolled with Zelle[[®]], they will receive a notification prompting them to enroll. After enrollment, the money will be available in your recipient's account, typically within minutes[[#1]].

                                          If your payment is pending, we recommend confirming that the person you sent money to has enrolled with Zelle[[®]] and that you entered the correct email address or U.S. mobile phone number.

                                          If you're waiting to receive money, you should check to see if you've received a payment notification via email or text message. If you haven't received a payment notification, we recommend following up with the sender to confirm they entered the correct email address or U.S. mobile phone number.

                                          Still having trouble? Please contact customer services at (888) 643-4343.

                                            Keeping your money and information safe is a top priority for First Hawaiian Bank. When you use Zelle[[®]] within our mobile app or online banking, your information is protected with the same technology we use to keep your bank account safe.

                                              If you don't know the person or aren't sure you will get what you paid for (for example, items bought from an online bidding or sales site), you should not use Zelle[[®]] for these types of transactions.

                                              These transactions are potentially high risk (just like sending cash to a person you don't know is high risk). Neither First Hawaiian Bank nor Zelle[[®]] offers a protection program for any authorized payments made with Zelle[[®]] – for example, if you do not receive the item you paid for or the item is not as described or as you expected.

                                                Your email address or U.S. mobile phone number may already be enrolled with Zelle[[®]] at another bank or credit union. Call our customer service team at (888) 643-4343 and ask them to move your email address or U.S. mobile phone number to First Hawaiian Bank so you can use it for Zelle[[®]].

                                                Once customer support moves your email address or U.S. mobile phone number, it will be connected to your First Hawaiian Bank account so you can start sending and receiving money with Zelle[[®]] through the First Hawaiian Bank mobile banking app and online banking. Please call First Hawaiian Bank’s customer support toll-free at (888) 643-4343 for help.

                                                Small Businesses using Zelle[[®]]

                                                  Zelle[[®]] is a fast and easy way for small businesses to send, request, and receive money directly between eligible bank accounts in the U.S.[[#4]] If your customers use Zelle[[®]] within their mobile banking app, they can send payments directly to your First Hawaiian Bank checking account with just your email address or U.S. mobile number. With Zelle® payments typically arrive within minutes[[#1]] .

                                                    You can send, request, or receive money with Zelle[[®]]. To get started log into FHB Online Banking or the FHB Mobile app, go to “Payments” and select “Send Money with Zelle[[®]]”. Enter your email address or U.S. mobile number, receive a one-time verification code, enter it, accept terms and conditions, and you’re ready to start sending and receiving with Zelle[[®]].

                                                      When you use Zelle[[®]] with a business checking account, you can send money to other small businesses with an eligible account at a financial institution that offers Zelle[[®]] to small businesses. You can also send money to consumers that have access to Zelle[[®]] through their mobile banking app. At this time, we don’t support sending to (or receiving from) consumers that are only enrolled in the Zelle[[®]] app[[#5]].

                                                      If the small business or consumer you send money to has already enrolled with Zelle[[®]] through their bank’s mobile app, the money is sent directly to their bank account and the transaction cannot be canceled. It’s important to only send money to people you trust, and always ensure you’ve used the correct email address or U.S. mobile number when sending money.

                                                        First, you should enroll your email address or U.S. mobile number with Zelle[[®]] through your mobile banking app and associate it with your business checking account. Second, share your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile number with your customers and ask them to send you payment with Zelle[[®]] right from their banking app. You don’t need to share any sensitive account details; they can send you money by using your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile number to identify you. After the consumer sends you payment with Zelle[[®]], you will receive your money directly into your enrolled checking account.

                                                          You can also request payments directly through the FHB Mobile app by clicking on “Payments” then “Send Money with Zelle[[®]]”. Select “Request,” entering your customer’s email address or U.S. mobile number, confirming the recipient is correct (make sure you’ve entered the correct email address or U.S. mobile number of the person or business you want to request payment from) and tapping “request”.

                                                          If your customer is using Zelle[[®]] through their bank’s mobile app, they’ll be able to pay you with Zelle[[®]]. You’ll receive a payment notification once your customer has sent you money in response to your request. If your customer is enrolled in the Zelle® app[[#5]], they will not be able to send you money with Zelle[[®]], and you should arrange for a different payment method.

                                                            There are a few ways you can encourage your customers to pay you with Zelle[[®]].

                                                            • Tell customers verbally that you accept payments with Zelle[[®]] and that they can easily send you money right from their banking app.
                                                            • Include it on an invoice. We recommend adding “I accept payments with Zelle[[®]]” or “Pay me with Zelle[[®]]”.
                                                            • Use Zelle[[®]] to request money[[#3]] from your customers (which will send them a notification telling them you’ve requested payment with Zelle[[®]]).
                                                            • Add pre-approved Zelle[[®]] content to your business website:
                                                              zellepay.com/smallbusiness-toolkit.

                                                            Please note, you’ll only be able to receive payments from consumers using Zelle[[®]] through their financial institution’s mobile banking app. You will not be able to receive payments from consumers enrolled in the Zelle[[®]] app.

                                                              To request money with Zelle[[®]], login to FHB Online or the FHB Mobile app and go to “Payments” then select “Send Money with Zelle[[®]]”. Choose “Request,” select the individual from whom you’d like to request money, enter the amount you’d like to request, include an optional note, review and hit “Request”.[[#3]]

                                                                Whether you use Zelle[[®]] with a business account or a consumer account, Zelle[[®]] uses the same network to initiate payments to small businesses and consumers. Consumers who are already enrolled with Zelle[[®]] through their mobile banking app don’t need to do anything different to send money to a small business – they use the existing Zelle[[®]] experience they already know and trust within their bank’s mobile app. However, the experience is slightly different for small businesses[[#4]], as small businesses cannot currently send payments to or receive payments from consumers who are only enrolled in the Zelle[[®]] app.

                                                                You must be enrolled for FHB Online Business Banking to use Zelle[[®]] with a business checking account. FHB Online Business Banking is FREE for Priority Banking customers and $5.99 for all other customers. FHB Online Business Banking includes online banking, mobile banking, online Bill Pay, Zelle[[®]] and Entitlements. See FHB Online Terms & Conditions for details.

                                                                  You must be enrolled for FHB Online Business Banking to use Zelle[[®]] with a business checking account.

Please review the updated terms and conditions that were provided by First Hawaiian Bank.

                                                                    To get started, log into FHB Online or the FHB Mobile app. If both your personal and business accounts are available in your FHB Online profile, you can select the appropriate checking account when sending a payment.

                                                                    If you have a separate login for your personal and business accounts or are enrolled with Zelle[[®]] at another financial institution, you must use a different U.S. mobile number or email address than the one you used to enroll your personal bank account with Zelle[[®]]. For example, aloha@email.com would be connected to your personal checking account, and 555-555-1234 would be connected to your small business account.

                                                                      No, Zelle[[®]] does not integrate directly with accounting software at this time. However, since Zelle[[®]] is connected to your bank account, you are able to see all Zelle[[®]] transactions in your online banking transaction records. If your bank account transactions feed into accounting software, you will see the Zelle[[®]] transactions.

                                                                        You must be enrolled for FHB Online Business Banking to use Zelle[[®]] with a business checking account.

                                                                          You can only cancel a payment if the small business or consumer you sent money to hasn’t yet enrolled with Zelle[[®]]. To check whether the payment is still pending because the recipient hasn’t yet enrolled, you can go to your activity page, choose the payment you want to cancel, and then select “Cancel This Payment.”

                                                                          If you send money to a small business or consumer that has already enrolled with Zelle[[®]] through their bank or credit union’s mobile app, the money is sent directly to their bank account and cannot be canceled. This is why it’s important to only send money to people you trust, and always ensure you’ve used the correct email address or U.S. mobile number when sending money.

                                                                          If you try to send money to a consumer who is enrolled in the Zelle[[®]] app[[#5]], the payment won’t go through and a message will pop up to let you know the payment cannot be completed.

We don’t have to ask you for the contact info for these companies because we already have it. If the address changes, these companies contact us directly.

                                                                                                                                    Your account number is the most reliable way to ensure that the company can credit your payments properly. If your account info is not correct, your payment may be credited late or not at all. Late fees, finance charges, or service disconnections may result. The Service Guarantee applies to payments only if all the info you provided is accurate.

                                                                                                                                    Sometimes companies use repeated characters (such as ***, ###, or xxx) to hide part of your account number on statements or bills. Be sure to enter your full account number instead of the characters used to hide your account number. We need the full account number to ensure that your payment is credited properly.

                                                                                                                                    Some small companies, such as landscaping or cleaning services for example, may not assign you an account number. If you don't have an account number, you can enter other info that identifies you to the company you are paying. For example, you can use your service address or the name on the account.

                                                                                                                                      If you want to stop any payment that has already begun processing, you must contact our Online Banking Customer Service. Although FHB will make every effort to accommodate your request, FHB will have no liability for failing to do so. The success of the stop payment request will depend on the status of the payment at the time of the request. A stop payment request may incur additional fees.

                                                                                                                                        You can see the status of your payments in Activity. Payments start in a Pending status until processing begins.

                                                                                                                                          You must cancel and reschedule an AutoPay payment when you update the address for the payee. If you don't cancel and reschedule the payment, the payment will continue to go to the address that was on file for the payee at the time the AutoPay payment was originally set up.

                                                                                                                                            You may cancel or edit any Scheduled Payment (including recurring payments) by following the directions within Online Bill Pay. Once the Service has begun processing a payment it cannot be cancelled or edited. If you want to change only the next occurrence of an automatic payment, locate the payment in the Pending Payments section of Payment Center. Select the payment, and then click Change or Cancel.

                                                                                                                                              Yes. AutoPay allows you to set up repeating payments in FHB Online Bill Payment. You can set up AutoPay for any company or person you pay regularly.

                                                                                                                                              • Set up and manage AutoPay and Reminders from the Payment Center.
                                                                                                                                              • You can set up payments to be made based on a schedule that you set.
                                                                                                                                              • You can set up some eBills to be paid automatically according to options you set.

                                                                                                                                                You are responsible for any payment you make through our Online Bill Payment. Insufficient funds may lead to additional fees and suspension or termination of service. If we send a payment on your behalf and you do not have sufficient funds when we attempt to debit your account, the following will occur:

                                                                                                                                                1. Your payment will still be sent.

                                                                                                                                                2. Our payment processor will notify you by email of the insufficient funds, giving you 1 day to make additional funds available to your payment account.

                                                                                                                                                3. On the next day we will attempt to debit your account again. If you still do not have sufficient funds to cover the payment, we will attempt to reverse the payment from your payee.

                                                                                                                                                • If the payment is reversible, our payment processor will notify you by email that the payment was reversed.
                                                                                                                                                • If the payment is not reversible, our payment processor will send you a second email to notify you of the insufficient funds. You will have 5 days to resolve the balance directly with our payment processor.

                                                                                                                                                4. If after 5 days, you have not resolved your balance, we will freeze your Online Bill Payment access and notify you by email. You then have 30 days to resolve your balance directly with our payment processor.

                                                                                                                                                5. If after 30 days you have not resolved your balance, you will receive a final email notice that your account will go into collections if you do not resolve your balance in 20 days.

                                                                                                                                                6. If after 20 days, you have not resolved you balance, we will cancel your Online Bill Payment service and submit your account for debt collection and notify you by email.

                                                                                                                                                Based on your previous payment history and your payee’s outstanding payments, we may send a laser draft check to your payee. A laser draft check is a check drawn on your account, similar to a personal check. If you have insufficient funds at the time the check is deposited, the process will be the same as a bounced personal check.

                                                                                                                                                  Payment Reminders are useful when you want help remembering to make payments on time, but you aren’t ready to set up AutoPay. Set up and manage reminders from the Payment Center.

                                                                                                                                                    Your reminder is cleared when you pay, dismiss, or file a bill. When you dismiss a reminder, it's removed from the Reminders list, but it will appear again. To permanently stop reminders, select the company or person on the Payment Center, click Reminders, and stop the reminders.

                                                                                                                                                      If the payment is sent electronically, the money is withdrawn from your account one business day after processing begins. If the company or person cannot receive electronic payments, we print a check and mail it to the address you provide.

                                                                                                                                                      For some checks, the money is withdrawn one business day after processing begins. For others, the money is withdrawn when the company or person deposits or cashes the check.

                                                                                                                                                        The "payment date" is your payment due date excluding any grace period. This is the date when your payment is due to arrive to your payee. The "send date" or "process date" is the date we will begin processing the payment to be made to your payee. We calculate the send date based on the payment date you give us and the minimum required lead time for your payee.

                                                                                                                                                          To help you schedule enough lead time for your payment to reach your payee, the date selector will display the earliest delivery date available for standard and expedited (if available) payments. Two to five Business Days of lead time is recommended for standard payments, depending on the payment method. A Business Day is every calendar day except for Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays.

                                                                                                                                                          For payees located in U.S. territories such as Guam or CNMI, please allow additional lead time for local mail service delays.

                                                                                                                                                          For Guam and CNMI residents, please note that the Payment Calendar reflects Continental U.S. dates and times when scheduling your payment delivery date.

                                                                                                                                                            Sometimes a payee may not credit your account immediately after they receive a payment. If the payment is not credited after two days, call the payee’s customer service line. If the problem isn’t resolved, you can send us a payment inquiry on payments in Activity. We will contact the payee on your behalf in an attempt to resolve the problem.

                                                                                                                                                              Expedited payments allow you to send money to your payees even faster. The payment date selector will indicate the earliest date available for delivery to your payee.

                                                                                                                                                              Same-day electronic payments allow you to make same-day electronic payments to applicable payees. If your payee is unable to receive electronic payments, we may be able to send an overnight paper check. The cut off time for overnight paper checks is 4:00 pm ET. Overnight delivery is only available for payees located in the Contiguous U.S.

                                                                                                                                                              Additional fees may apply for expedited payments. Fees incurred for an expedited payment will be drawn from your funding account, the account you are sending the payment from. Fees for expedited payments are displayed in the Payment Center. See FHB Online Terms and Conditions for details.

                                                                                                                                                              eBills

                                                                                                                                                                If your normal billing cycle has passed and you still have not received your eBill, contact the company who bills you. Depending on billing cycles, the exact day you receive your bill each month may vary. Also remember that more than a month may pass before you receive your first eBill from a company.

                                                                                                                                                                  If you have questions about an eBill, please contact the company directly. All the info on the eBill comes directly from the company who sent it. When you pay the eBill, you can enter an amount that is different from the amount due on the bill.

                                                                                                                                                                    Yes, you can pay an eBill by some other means, such as by check or directly on the company’s Web site if available.

                                                                                                                                                                    However, when you pay an eBill outside of FHB Online Bill Payment, the status of the eBill remains Unpaid and it continues to appear in the Reminders section until you dismiss the reminder. To change the status, you can file the eBill and add a note about its resolution.

                                                                                                                                                                      To turn off an eBill go to the Payment Center and click on the "Bills" link for the eBill you would like to turn off. Then click on the "Cancel eBills" option and confirm cancellation. When you discontinue your eBill service, you will start receiving your bills directly from the company again.

                                                                                                                                                                      Notes About Stopping eBills:

                                                                                                                                                                      • You may receive one or more eBills after your request before the company stops sending them.
                                                                                                                                                                      • It can take an entire billing cycle before your paper bills resume.
                                                                                                                                                                      • When you stop receiving eBills, any automatic payments that you set up to pay them are also canceled.

                                                                                                                                                                      You can still pay your bills using FHB Online Bill Pay but you will not be able to access your bill directly through the Payment Center.

                                                                                                                                                                        Go to Activity. You can view paid eBills when you view the details of your payments.

                                                                                                                                                                        Internal Transfers

                                                                                                                                                                          Future-dated transfers are single transfers that can be scheduled up to one year in advance.

                                                                                                                                                                            Recurring transfers are transfers between accounts that are for the same amount or between the same accounts at specified intervals, e.g., weekly, every 2 weeks, quarterly, etc. For example, if wish to transfer $500 from a checking account to a savings account on the 3rd day of each month, you can set up an automatic recurring transfer to be made on the 3rd day of each month for as long as you wish, up to 999 times. Recurring transfers eliminate the need manually schedule identical repeating transactions.

                                                                                                                                                                              Internal transfers requested for the current business day will be processed the same day if scheduled before the cut-off time—10pm Local Time--and the next business day if scheduled after. Local Time for a given account is the time at the location where the account was opened—i.e., HST for account opened in Hawaii, and ChST for accounts opened in Guam or Saipan.  For all mortgages, credit cards and accounts opened online, Local Time is HST. Transfers from/to deposit accounts and loan accounts made before the cut-off time will appear online immediately; transfers to credit card and mortgage accounts will be effective the day they are made but will appear the following business day. Funds transfers requested for a future date (up to one year in advance) will be processed on the morning of the requested date (or next Business day if the request date falls on a weekend or Bank Holiday). 

                                                                                                                                                                              External Transfers

                                                                                                                                                                                You may add up to a total of 10 external accounts. Please note, you will be required to go through an authentication process for each of those accounts that you own.

                                                                                                                                                                                  If, on the "send date,” the balance in your account is insufficient to make an External Transfer you authorized, we will delay the transfer and try again on the next Business Day. If there is still an insufficient balance to make the transfer, we may either refuse to pay the item, or we may make the transfer and overdraw your checking account. In either event, you will be responsible for any non-sufficient funds ("NSF") or overdraft charges we may impose.

                                                                                                                                                                                    The cut-off time for submitting External Transfers is 7:00 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time each Business Day. External Transfers submitted after 7:00 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time or on weekends or holidays will be processed the next Business Day. Any updates to an existing transfer must be made before the cut-off time on the scheduled transfer date. A Business Day is every calendar day except for Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays.

                                                                                                                                                                                      External Transfers will be processed on the date you specify and the expected delivery date is displayed as you are creating the transfer. Transfers can also be scheduled up to a year in advance. External Transfers scheduled to process on a weekend or holiday will be processed the previous Business Day.

                                                                                                                                                                                        Yes, External Transfers may be scheduled up to 365 days in advance of the date the transfer is to be made (called a "Single External Transfer"). Automatic Recurring External Transfers may also be scheduled for substantially at regular intervals (e.g., weekly, monthly, annually) in the same amount between the same two accounts (called a "Recurring External Transfer").

                                                                                                                                                                                          The maximum daily amount allowed for external transfers is either the current available balance in the source account (plus any available credit in an associated Yes-CheckSM line of credit) or based on the chart below, whichever is less. This includes any single transfer or the total amount outstanding or "in process". For additional information, see below:
