*APY= Annual Percentage Yield. APY is accurate as of 08/1/2023. Rates are subject to change after account opening. Minimum opening deposit is $25.00. When Fusion requirements are met, balances over $25,000 earn 0.10% APY. To earn Fusion rate and ATM fee refunds you must satisfy the following requirements during the requirement cycle: have at least 12 debit card transactions post and clear; have at least one automatic payment or direct deposit post and clear; and receive statements electronically. Requirement cycles begin on the last calendar day of the month and end on the next to last calendar day of the month (at close of business on a Monday through Saturday and 5:00 pm on a Sunday). To ensure you receive the highest interest rate tier, all Fusion requirements must be met by within the disclosed requirement cycle. ATM transactions do not count toward the 12 check card transactions. International ATM fees are not eligible for ATM fee refund. Interest and ATM refunds will be paid on the last day of the month in which it is earned. If account requirements are not met, the rate will be 0.05% APY and ATM fees will not be refunded. **To earn cash back you must be signed up to receive eStatements from Advantis. You will earn $0.10 on every qualifying purchase that posts during the account cycle. A qualifying purchase is a purchase of $3.00 or more that is made with the debit card tied to your Cashback Checking or Start Checking account, including purchases made with your card through a Digital Wallet supported by Advantis and purchases made with your debit card online. For purposes of the Cashback Checking and Start Checking accounts, the account cycle runs from the first day of the month to the last day of the month. Your cashback will be posted to your Cashback Checking or Start Checking account on the first day of the month following the close of the account cycle. You will not receive any cashback for any purchases posted during the same month you close your Cashback Checking or Start Checking account. You must be between the ages of 14 to 22 years old in order to qualify for the Start Checking or Savings accounts. For Start Checking accounts, on the first day of the month following your 23rd birthday, your account will convert to a Cashback Checking account. Access to funds for Early Payday can be up to two days prior to date of scheduled payment and is dependent on submission of direct deposit by payer. Access Checking: Courtesy Pay (Discretionary Overdraft) is not available on this account. Any items presented for payment on this account will be returned unpaid or declined if the available balance in the account is not sufficient to pay the item.
