Founder at WalletOnFire
I started WalletOnFire to "get better" at saving money, optimizing investments, side hustling and having a healthy relationship with money overall. In 2014 I started building websites and online hustles for passive income and this snowballed into a media company. I write about things I have experience with & hustles that interest me!

- Family 1st Federal Credit Union will allow people to have a savings-only account, regardless of what the ChexSystems report says.
- Alliance Credit Union will verify new accounts with a credit report, not a ChexSystems. People qualified for the membership are Weber County residents or for people and their families working for companies on an approved list.
- Alpine Credit Union will verify their new accounts with a credit report instead of the ChexSystems report. Alpine School District residents are qualified for a membership.
- Cyprus Credit Union
- Grantsville Federal Credit Union, which is open to Tooele County residents, doesn’t verify new accounts with ChexSystems.
- Jordan Credit Union will use ChexSystems to verify all accounts and, for folks with just one negative incident in the report, an account is often granted. Since it’s a credit union, eligible rules do apply. It’s generally open only to those folks who live in Salt Lake County or its employees and their immediate families.
- MetroWest Credit Union checks the ChexSystems record. And, so long as you prove that an incident has been paid for, you’ll be granted an account. Of course, it’s a credit union so eligibly requirements apply: you must be a resident of Salt Lake County.
- PNC Bank
- At TransWest Credit Union, both a credit report and the ChexSystems report are pulled to verify new accounts. Should a person have good credit, it’ll override the negative incident being reported on the ChexSystems report. Only people living in the Salt Lake County area are permitted to have a membership with the bank.
- An Experian credit report is used to verify new accounts at the Associates Capital Bank in Saint George.
