1. To earn the published interest rate, in the first 90 days of account opening, a monthly recurring direct deposit* of $500 or more must be established. Failure to set up a recurring direct deposit within 90 days of account opening will cause the account to revert to a non-interest earning account. Your account is set up to provide monthly E-Statements. A monthly $5.00 paper statement fee will be assessed should you choose to receive a paper statement. The interest rate on the account is 4.36% with an annual percentage yield of 4.46%. Interest Rate and Annual Percentage Yield (APY) are current as of 11-08-2024, the interest rate and annual percentage yield may change. You must deposit $50.00 to open this account.
