Coupons for waivers of overdraft charges.

Risky, but could be popular.

I don't think you could offer coupons for waiving overdraft charges without violating the law...

BOA use to offer one on their Student Checking account. Each student received 1 free overdraft fee "coupon" when opening a new account. Most of the students lost them before using them but was a neat incentive.

Let me make sure I understand - you've been challenged to think outside the box, so your approach to that challenge is to ask what everyone else is doing? And anyway, if my bank is doing something that is innovative and successful, what is my incentive for sharing that with you when you may wind up competing directly with me?

Magic...my sentiments exactly.

Magic - that's a fair question, but we are a small community bank and I seriously doubt we'll ever be competing in the markets of 99.9% of the posters on BOL. Of course, we have shopped all of our local competition (and they have shopped us). It never hurts to see what is happening elsewhere and even globally. I have found BOL a great place to share and thought my question was appropriate for this venue. Posters respond at their own will. For those who do, I am appreciative.

Seems reasonable to get ideas from others and then make them your own by adapting strategies.
