Qualification Information:

Account transactions and activities may take one or more days to post and settle to the account and all must do so during the Monthly Qualification Cycle in order to qualify for the account's rewards. The following activities DO NOT count toward earning account rewards: ATM-processed transactions, transfers between accounts, PIN-based debit card purchases less than $5, credit card purchases less than $5, debit card purchases processed by merchants and received by our credit union as ATM transactions, PIN-based transactions, non-retail payment transactions and purchases made with debit cards not issued by our credit union. Transactions bundled together by merchants and received by our institution as a single transaction count as a single transaction for the purpose of earning account rewards.

"Monthly Qualification Cycle" means the current statement cycle.

Reward Information:

Depending on what Kasasa account you have, you will receive the following rewards when you meet your account's qualifications during a Monthly Qualification Cycle:

Kasasa Cash: average daily balances up to and including $15,000 receive an APY of 0.75%; and average daily balances over $15,000 earn a dividend rate of 0.75% on the portion of the average daily balance over $15,000, resulting in a range from 0.325% to 0.75% APY depending on the account's average daily balance.

Kasasa Cash Back: you will receive 3.00% cash back on up to a total of $300 signature-based debit card purchases that post and settle to the account during that cycle period. A maximum of $9 cash back payments may be earned per Monthly Qualification Cycle.

Kasasa Saver: average daily balances up to and including $25,000 in your Kasasa Saver account earn an APY of 0.50% and average daily balances over $25,000 earn a dividend rate of 0.50% on the portion of the average daily balance over $25,000, resulting in a range from 0.313% to 0.50% APY depending on the account's average daily balance.

You will receive reimbursements up to $25 for nationwide ATM withdrawal fees incurred within your Kasasa Cash or Kasasa Cash Back account during the Monthly Qualification Cycle in which you qualified. NOTE: ATM fee reimbursements only apply to Kasasa Cash, Kasasa Cash Back, or Kasasa Tunes transactions via ATM; Kasasa Saver ATM transaction fees are not reimbursed nor refunded.

Depending on your Kasasa account, when your qualifications are not met, cash back payments are not made, nationwide ATM withdrawal fees are not reimbursed and:

Kasasa Cash: the entire average daily balance in the Kasasa Cash account earns 0.05% APY.

Kasasa Saver: the entire average daily balance in the Kasasa Saver account earns 0..05% APY.

Dividends will be credited to your Kasasa Cash and Kasasa Saver accounts on the last day of the current statement cycle.

The cash back payments and nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements earned in your Kasasa Cash Back account will be credited to your Kasasa Saver account on the first processing/business day of the following statement cycle.

If Kasasa Cash or Kasasa Cash Back are linked to Kasasa Saver, the following also apply:

Kasasa Cash: When linked to a Kasasa Saver account, the dividends earned within the Kasasa Cash account do not compound since it, along with any nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements are, automatically transferred to the Kasasa Saver account within one day. This automatic transfer may cause an overdraft to your Kasasa Cash account, if the account balance is less than the transferred amount when the transfer occurs.

Kasasa Cash Back: When linked to a Kasasa Saver account, the cash back payments and nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements earned in your Kasasa Cash Back account will be credited to your Kasasa Saver account on the first processing/business day of the following statement cycle.

APY = Annual Percentage Yield.

APYs accurate as of 04/03/2023.

APY calculations are based on an assumed balance of 0.75% + $100,000 in your Kasasa Cash account and 0.50% + $100,000 in your Kasasa Saver account and an assumed statement cycle of thirty-one (31) days.

Rates, rewards, and bonuses, if any, are variable and may change after account is opened; rates may change without notice to you. No minimum balance is required to earn or receive the account's rewards. Rewards less than a penny cannot be distributed. Fees may reduce earnings.
