Bank of America fee schedule overview for Buckeye businesses

By Pablo Diaz · I left BoA after years as a customer. Read the full story →

Most AZ business owners I talk to do not know the full BoA fee structure until they have already paid it. The schedule below is from BoA's own published fee disclosures, plus the public CFPB record on practices that have been the subject of enforcement.

Fee schedule overview

BoA's main small business fee categories: monthly maintenance ($16/mo Business Advantage Fundamentals, waived with $5,000 avg balance), wire transfers ($30 domestic / $45 international), out-of-network ATMs ($2.50 + third-party fee), overdraft fees (subject to CFPB 2023 enforcement on stacking practices), foreign transactions (~3% on most cards), and per-product minimum balance fees on relationship products. Each is on BoA's published fee disclosure page. The CFPB consumer complaint database has tens of thousands of fee-related complaints filed against Bank of America for additional public-record context.
