Choose a Bank that Gives Back

 Pilot Grove Savings Bank 1929 Ford Model A rides through the Tri-State Rodeo Parade in Ft. Madison, Iowa.
Pilot Grove Savings Bank offers a variety of checking accounts to meet the short-term financial goals and long-term financial goals of every customer. We offer a Consumer Regular Checking Account that has everything you need! This includes monthly statements with check imaging, overdraft protection, and FDIC insurance, without the things you don’t need like monthly service charges or balance requirements. We also offer competitive interest-bearing accounts, such as the NOW Account or the Money Market Account, for customers who wish to maintain higher balance requirements.


WE HAVE THREE OPTIONS FOR PERSONAL BANK ACCOUNTS: THE REGULAR CHECKING ACCOUNT, NOW ACCOUNT, AND MONEY MARKET ACCOUNT OPTIONS

The regular consumer checking account features are designed to accommodate your personal banking needs. The Pilot Grove Savings Bank NOW Account is an interest-bearing account. It is designed for the customer who requires liquidity of a checking account and desires the interest-earning capabilities of a savings account. Our tiered Money Market Accounts and Pilot Grove Savings Bank combine the earning power of a CD-type investment, with the flexibility of a checking account to give you high earning potential and liquidity. The Money Market Account pays different interest depending on the tier you are in:
  • Tier 1 – Balance of $250,000 or more
  • Tier 2 – Balance of $100,000 or more, but less than or equal to $249,999.99
  • Tier 3 – Balance of $50,000 or more, but less than or equal to $99,999.99
  • Tier 4 – Balance less than or equal to $49,999.99
