It’s Easy to Qualify
Enrollments must be in place and all of the following transactions and activities must post and settle to your Kasasa Cash account during each Monthly Qualification Cycle:
- At least 10 debit card purchases
- Be enrolled in and agree to receive e-Statements
- At least one direct deposit, ACH credit, or ACH payment transaction
That’s all there is to it! If you don’t meet your qualifications during the cycle, your Kasasa Cash account is still free. Plus, you’ll still earn our base dividend rate. Even more, the very next month you can get right back to earning your full rewards!
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, debit card purchases processed by merchants and received by our credit union as ATM 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 a period beginning one (1) banking day prior to the first day of the current statement cycle through one (1) banking day prior to the last business day of the current statement cycle.

"Business Day" means our business days are Monday through Friday. Saturday, Sunday and Federal Holidays are not included.

Reward Information:
When your Kasasa Cash account qualifications are met during a Monthly Qualification Cycle, average daily balances up to and including $15,000 in your Kasasa Cash account earn a dividend rate of 1.243% resulting in an APY of 1.25%; and average daily balances over $15,000 earn a dividend rate of 0.250% on the portion of the average daily balance over $15,000, resulting in a range from 1.25% to 0.380% APY depending on the account's average daily balance.
You will receive reimbursements up to an aggregate total of $25.00 for nationwide ATM withdrawal fees incurred within your Kasasa Cash account during that Monthly Qualification Cycle. We reimburse ATM withdrawal fees based on estimates when the withdrawal information we receive does not identify the ATM withdrawal fee. If you have not received an appropriate reimbursement, we will adjust the reimbursement amount if we receive the transaction receipt within sixty (60) calendar days of the withdrawal transaction.
When your Kasasa Cash qualifications are not met, the dividend rate earned on the account's entire average daily balance will be 0.010% resulting in an annual percentage yield of 0.010% and ATM withdrawal fees are not refunded.
Dividends will be credited to your Kasasa Cash account on the last day of the current statement cycle.
Nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements will be credited to your account on the last day of the current statement cycle.
APY = Annual Percentage Yield.
APYs accurate as of 01/01/2022.
APY calculations are based on an assumed balance of $15,000 + $100,000 in your Kasasa Cash account and an assumed statement cycle of thirty-one (31) days.
