Sec. 5. All persons, regardless of age, may become depositors in any bank or trust company and shall be subject to the same duties and liabilities respecting their deposits. Whenever a deposit is accepted by any bank or trust company in the name of any person, regardless of age, the deposit may be withdrawn by the depositor by any of the following methods:

(1) Check or other instrument in writing. The check or other instrument in writing constitutes a receipt or acquittance if the check or other instrument in writing is signed by the depositor, and constitutes a valid release and discharge to the bank or trust company for all payments so made.

(2) Electronic means through:

(A) preauthorized direct withdrawal;

(B) an automated teller machine;

(C) a debit card;

(D) a transfer by telephone;

(E) a network, including the Internet; or

(F) any:

(i) electronic terminal;

(ii) computer;

(iii) magnetic tape; or

(iv) other electronic means.

However, this section may not be construed to affect the rights, liabilities, or responsibilities of participants in an electronic fund transfer under the federal Electronic Fund Transfer Act (15 U.S.C. 1693 et. seq.).
