IntraFi - ICS & CDARS
Smart Investing.
With IntraFi Cash Service (ICS) and CDARS, you can enjoy the safety and simplicity that comes with access to multi-million-dollar FDIC insurance through a single bank relationship. Rest assured knowing that funds are eligible for FDIC insurance, all backed by the full faith and credit of the federal government.
IntraFi Cash Service (ICS)
We, like other institutions that offer ICS, are members of the IntraFi network. When we place your deposit through ICS, that deposit is divided into amounts under the standard FDIC insurance maximum of $250,000. The amounts are then placed into deposit accounts at multiple FDIC-insured banks. As a result, you can access FDIC coverage from many institutions while working directly just with us. Receive one statement from our bank and access key details about your accounts online, 24/7. And, as always, know that your confidential information is protected.
CDARS
As a member of the IntraFi network, we place your deposit through CDARS. That deposit is divided into amounts under the standard FDIC insurance maximum of $250,000 and placed into deposit accounts at other network banks. As a result, you can access FDIC coverage from many institutions while working directly with just ours. Receive one statement from our bank detailing all your CDARS placements.
How It Works
[1] When deposited funds are exchanged on a dollar-for-dollar basis with other institutions that use ICS, our bank can use the full amount of a deposit placed through ICS for local lending, satisfying some depositors’ local investment goals or mandates. Alternatively, with a depositor's consent, our bank may choose to receive fee income instead of deposits from other participating institutions. Under these circumstances, deposited funds would not be available for local lending.
Deposit placement through CDARS or ICS is subject to the terms, conditions, and disclosures in applicable agreements. Although deposits are placed in increments that do not exceed the FDIC standard maximum deposit insurance amount (“SMDIA”) at any one destination bank, a depositor’s balances at the institution that places deposits may exceed the SMDIA (e.g., before settlement for deposits or after settlement for withdrawals) or be uninsured (if the placing institution is not an insured bank). The depositor must make any necessary arrangements to protect such balances consistent with applicable law and must determine whether placement through CDARS or ICS satisfies any restrictions on its deposits. A list identifying IntraFi network banks appears at https://www.intrafi.com/network-banks. The depositor may exclude banks from eligibility to receive its funds. IntraFi and ICS are registered service marks, and the IntraFi hexagon and IntraFi logo are service marks, of IntraFi Network LLC.
