** Reward Rates - 2.02% APY (Annual Percentage Yield) is paid on balances between $0.00 to $20,000.00 and 0.10% APY is paid on all amounts of $20,000.01 and above, each cycle that the minimum qualifications are met. Up to $25.00 in ATM Fees will be refunded each cycle that qualifications are met. If you do not meet the qualifications per cycle, your account will still function as a free checking account earning Base Rate 0.10% APY; however, it will not receive ATM fee refunds for that time period. We may change the interest rate and APY at any time after the account is opened. No minimum balance required. No monthly service charge. The qualification cycle is approximately one month long, but begins on the last business day of the previous month and goes through the second to the last business day of the current month. Eligible transactions must post during the qualification cycle in order to receive credit. Only one Rewards Checking Account may be opened per member, and any additional checking accounts will be opened as standard Share Draft Accounts.
