Must elect to receive monthly statements electronically;
-
Must have a minimum of one (1) Automated Clearing House (ACH) credit or ACH debit post and clear the checking account during the month; and
-
Must have a minimum of fifteen (15) debit card transactions (excluding ATM transactions) post and clear the account during the month.

*Cash Back Checking: When qualifications are met during a month, you will receive 3.00% cash back on up to a total of $250.00 signature-based debit card purchases that post and settle to the account during that month. You will also receive reimbursements up to $5.00 for nationwide (domestic) ATM fees incurred on your Rewards Checking account during the month in which you qualified. When qualifications are not met, no cash back payments are made and ATM fees are not refunded. Cash back payments and ATM fee reimbursements will be credited to your Cash Back account on the last day of the qualifying month. Rates and rewards are variable and may change at any time.
*High Yield Checking: APY = Annual Percentage Yield. When your qualifications are met during a month (1) balances up to $10,000.00 receive APY of 2.50%; and balances over $10,000.00 earn 0.100% interest rate on the portion of the balance over $10,000, resulting in a range from 0.27% to 2.50% APY depending on the account’s balance and (2) you will receive reimbursements up to $5.00 for nationwide (domestic) ATM fees incurred on your Rewards Checking account during that month in which you qualified. When qualifications are not met, all balances in the account earn 0.01% APY and ATM fees are not refunded. Dividends and ATM fee reimbursements will be credited to your High Yield Checking account on the last day of the qualifying month. APYs accurate as of 3/1/2019. Dividends paid by using the average daily balance method. Rates and rewards are variable and may change after account is opened. Fees may reduce earnings.

The following activities do not count toward earning account rewards: ATM-processed transactions, transfers between accounts, non-retail payment transactions and purchases made with debit cards not issued by our credit union. “Monthly Qualification Cycle” means one calendar month. Account approval, conditions, qualifications, limits, timeframes, enrollments, and other requirements apply. $25 minimum deposit is required to open these accounts. At least 1 automatic payment (ACH) or direct deposit or bill pay transaction and enrollment of electronic statements are conditions of these accounts.
