Frequently asked questions

What fees does Coba charge?

At Coba, we offer the Deposit Account and Virtual US Debit Card with no fee.

What is the difference between the Coba Deposit Account and a Wallet?

Coba is a Fintech (or financial technology) company. This means we don’t have a bank charter, but instead, partner with Bangor Savings Bank, Member FDIC.
