Annual Percentage Yield (APY) subject to change. This is a variable rate that is subject to change after the account has been opened. Fees may reduce the earnings on the account. Interest rate and APY are accurate as of 7/15/24 and calculated on an account balance of $1,000. Tier 1 – If your daily balance is $500 or less, the interest rate paid on the entire balance in your account will be 5.00% with an APY of 5.12%. Tier 2 – if your daily balance is greater than $500, the interest rate paid on the balance greater than $500 in your account will be 0.01% resulting in APYs ranging from 2.56%-5.12% (assuming a maximum account balance of $1,000).

Birthday reward will be deposited at the end of the monthly statement cycle following the birthday each year.
