Welcome to BOLT Online Account Opening

We love seeing you in person, but understand that coming in to a branch location isn’t always convenient. This powerful, lightning-fast technology lets you open a new account in minutes.

To get started, you will want the following information available for each account owner:

  • Social Security Number
  • Driver License or State ID
  • Home address

Making a deposit is part of the process of opening your new account. If you want to transfer money from an account at another bank, you will also want to have the account information found on your checks, deposit slips or debit/credit card.

Within minutes you’ll be able to:

  • Securely open a new account from a PC or mobile device
  • Order a chip enabled debit card
  • Enroll in eStatements

Once the account opening process is complete, you immediately have the opportunity to:

  • Enroll in DIGITAL BANKING and download the First United Mobile App
  • Use ClickSWITCH to automatically switch recurring payments and direct deposits from your previous account
  • Order checks

Got it. Let’s Open an Account.

Important Information: To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all US financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. When you open an account we will ask for your name, address, date of birth and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents.
