Opening an account online is easy and takes less than ten minutes. You need to be at least 18 years old and a citizen or Resident Alien of the United States (some accounts also require New Jersey residency). Please have your Social Security Number, a photo ID, and your external funding information handy.

Amboy Direct is the online division of Amboy Bank, a New Jersey institution that has been around for more than 130 years. We’ve also been voted “Best Bank” for more than 20 consecutive years!

We can pay more because Amboy Direct clients do not use branches. This helps reduce our costs, which means we can pay you higher rates and bring you added value.

Our account opening process and Digital Banking platform employ state of the art security practices, so you can rest assured that your information is safe.

Amboy Direct relationships are FDIC-insured up to $250,000 per depositor.

You can add a second owner to the account at the time of account opening, or later by mailing the request to us.

We also need photo copies of the current account holder and second owner's driver’s licenses to complete this change.
