1APYs accurate as of 11/1/22. Determination of Rate: The interest rate paid each month will be a single interest rate on the entire balance based on the daily balance during the prior month as illustrated in the High Yield Table. If, however, the account satisfied the criteria for an earned reward benefit during the prior month, the interest rate and APY would be more favorable. If the reward is earned, the High Yield Table does not apply. Instead, the Bank will pay an interest rate of 1.24% on any portion of the daily balance that is less than $10,000. The corresponding APY on the portion would be 1.25%. Additionally, the Bank will pay an interest rate of .25% on any portion of the daily balance that is greater than or equal to $10,000. Whenever account balances are greater than or equal to $10,000, the blended APY on the entire balance would vary from 1.25% to 0.34%, depending on the daily balance. Frequency of Rate Change: The bank may change the interest rate on your account at any time. Compounding and Crediting: Interest will be compounded monthly and will be credited to the account monthly. If you close your account before interest is credited, you will not receive the accrued interest.
2Qualification Information: To receive the earned reward benefit in any month, the following criteria must have been satisfied during the month immediately prior: At least one ACH debit or credit must have posted and settled, At least twelve debit card transactions must have posted and settled, and the accountholder must have elected electronic statements in lieu of paper statements.
