There are two ways to keep your Dollar Bank accounts out of probate: adding beneficiary designations and retitling eligible accounts into a revocable living trust. Which approach works best depends on the account type and your overall estate plan.
Across 21 product types, Dollar Bank accounts vary in how they transfer at death. The sections below walk through Payable on Death (POD) designations, trust funding options, and which products support each method.

Special Requirements
- Dollar Bank does not offer online beneficiary updates -- POD/ITF changes must be made in person at a branch.

- POD and ITF designations are recorded on the Signature Card; beneficiaries have no rights during the account owner's lifetime.
- The bank may review trust agreements and fiduciary documents, and may require notarized signatures or other proof of authenticity.
- The account owner may remove beneficiaries at any time or close the account by withdrawing all funds.
