FAQs

How do I open Non-Profit Checking account?

Please stop by an M&T Bank branch near you. An M&T Relationship Manager will be happy to walk you through the options we offer specifically to not-for-profit organizations

Can I get a debit card with my organization’s logo?

Absolutely. You can request an M&T Custom Card with your organization’s logo, imagery or photo of your choice. 

There is no monthly maintenance fee if requirements are met, but other transaction and service fees, including insufficient funds (NSF) and overdraft fees, may apply.
Transaction items are checks paid, checks deposited, deposit tickets (whether physical or created virtually in connection with an ATM, mobile, remote check deposit or other electronic deposit), ACH credits and ACH debits. Additional transaction fees may vary.
Electronic statement delivery is available to customers enrolled in M&T Online Banking for Business, and the monthly maintenance fee discounts/waivers noted above apply only if the account is enrolled in Electronic Statement and Document Delivery (and is not receiving paper statements) at the end of the month for which the monthly maintenance fee is being calculated.
Use of the M&T Custom Card design service is subject to program Terms and Conditions and Image Guidelines. The "Identify Yourself" card is not a form of photo identification. There is no guarantee or expectation that merchants will use a photo on your card as an added form of security.
All M&T checking accounts are subject to M&T standard account agreements.
Unless otherwise specified, all advertised offers and terms and conditions of accounts and services are subject to change at any time without notice. After an account is opened or service begins, it is subject to its features, conditions and terms, which are subject to change at any time in accordance with applicable laws and agreements.
