WHY A KASASA CASH CHECKING ACCOUNT?
Kasasa Cash® is a free checking account that pays you 2.00% APY on balances up to $10,000 in the checking account per month [receive 2.00% - 0.32% APY on balances over $10,000, and 0.05% APY if qualification aren't met]. Also receive up to $20.00/per month back on nationwide ATM fees.
In order to qualify for the account rewards, simply do these three things:
- Sign up for and log in to online banking at least once per month
- Sign up for and receive e-statements
- Use your debit card at least 12 times throughout the monthly qualification cycle
If qualifications are not met during the monthly qualification cycle, then you won't receive the rewards for the month. Otherwise, it acts as a FREE checking account.
FREE REWARD SAVINGS ACCOUNT
Our reward checking account can be paired with a Kasasa Saver® account that receives a higher interest rate, as long as you qualify for the rewards that month. Earn up to 0.50% APY if reward qualifications are met, and 0.03% APY if reward qualifications are not met.

Summary
*See below for Account Disclosures.
*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, credit card purchases processed by merchants and received by our credit union as ATM transactions, non-retail payment transactions and purchases made with debit or credit cards not issued by our credit union. “Monthly Qualification Cycle” means a period beginning one (1) business day prior to the first day of the current statement cycle through one (1) business day prior to the close of the current statement cycle.
Reward Information: When your Kasasa Cash account qualifications are met during a Monthly Qualification Cycle, (1) Balances up to $10,000 receive APY of 2.0%; and balances over $10,000 earn .15% interest rate on the portion of balance over $10,000, resulting in a range from .32% to 2.0% APY depending on the account’s balance and (2) you will receive reimbursements up to $20.00 ($4.99 per single transaction) for nationwide ATM fees incurred during the Monthly Qualification Cycle in which you qualified. An ATM receipt must be presented within thirty (30) calendar days of transaction for reimbursements of individual ATM fees of $4.99 or higher. When Kasasa Cash qualifications are not met, all balances in the account earn .05% APY and ATM fees are not refunded.
