Help Center & FAQ

Accounts

How do I open a personal account online?

Click Open Account, enter a few personal details, verify your identity with a government-issued ID, and fund your account with an existing bank or debit card. It typically takes 8 minutes end to end.

Is there a minimum deposit or balance?

No. Our Everyday Checking and High-Yield Savings accounts have no minimum deposit and no ongoing minimum balance requirements.

Are my deposits insured?

Yes. Deposits are held with our FDIC-insured partner banks and are insured up to $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, for each account ownership category.

Loans

Does checking my rate affect my credit score?

No. Checking your rate uses a soft credit inquiry, which does not affect your credit score. A hard inquiry only happens if you choose to move forward with the loan.

How fast do personal loan funds arrive?

Once your loan is finalized and signed, funds are typically deposited into your Caja Popular Central account the same business day, or the next business day for external banks.

Can I pay off my loan early?

Absolutely. Personal, auto, and home loans have no prepayment penalties.

Digital banking

Which devices are supported?

Our mobile app supports iOS 15 and later, and Android 9 and later. Online banking supports the current and prior major versions of Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge.

How do I freeze my card?

Open the app, tap the card, and use the "Freeze card" toggle. You can unfreeze it just as easily.

Can I use Zelle®?

Yes. Zelle® is built into the app for fast, no-fee transfers to friends and family with a U.S. bank account.

Security & privacy

How do you protect my data?

All communications are encrypted with TLS 1.3, stored data is encrypted at rest with AES-256, and multi-factor authentication is required on every sign-in. Read our Security page for details.
