If you are a Bank of America customer in Yuma, AZ trying to figure out what you are actually paying every month, this page lays out BoA's published fee schedule, the realistic waiver paths, and the public regulator record on BoA fee practices. Cited at the source — verify before you act.

Monthly maintenance fee + waiver paths

Bank of America's Business Advantage Fundamentals carries a $16/mo maintenance fee. Waiver paths per BoA's pricing page: maintain a $5,000 average monthly balance OR meet qualifying activity tiers (typically a combination of debit card spend, deposit volume, and direct deposits). For a typical Yuma small business, the realistic question is whether keeping $5,000 floating in a non-yielding checking account costs less than the $192/year fee. At current treasury yield rates available on competitor accounts (Mercury, RHO), the opportunity cost of that $5,000 sitting idle is meaningful.
