Getting Started

Stop in to any Fifth Third Banking Center to open up your Access 360° card. There are no fees or credit checks to open your account. A $25 minimum deposit is required. You will receive a temporary card that will allow you to instantly begin using the money on your card. A permanent card with your name on it will be mailed within 3-5 days after opening the account6.
The fee is waived if you are a Fifth Third checking customer7 or in any monthly period that $500 or more is deposited onto the card. Otherwise, a $4 monthly fee applies.
