ATM FEE SAMPLER

Here's a sampling of ATM fees from some of the largest banks and credit unions in Minnesota.

Most banks typically charge two fees: 1. An ATM surcharge for a non-bank customer who's using its ATM, and 2. A fee a bank charges its own customer for using an out-of-network ATM (sometimes referred to as a "foreign fee," or "out-of-network" fee).

Note that many of the following banks and credit unions belong to ATM-networks that allow free withdrawals at partner machines. Some offer certain accounts that waive ATM fees as well.
