Marketing do's and don'ts

What to do and what not to do with your marketing.

Do:

  • Make sure your disclosures meet a "clear and conspicuous" standard.
  • Make sure your disclosures are for the end user.

Don’t:

  • Refer to yourself as a bank (for example, Bond Bank). "Bank" may be used as a verb (for example, "bank with Bond"), but you must provide proper disclosures in such cases.
  • Advertise your product as "free" or "no cost", if any of the following fees are charged:
    • Fees on minimum balance requirements
    • Transaction fees
    • Service fees
    • Flat monthly fees
    • or any fees imposed to deposit, withdraw, or transfer funds
