For those who typically maintain higher balances in their checking accounts, Eastern Bank offers interest-bearing checking options.

The interest earned can add up over time, providing a small but consistent return on your everyday funds. This feature is particularly beneficial for individuals and businesses who keep a significant operational balance in their checking account.
