iChecking

Minimum Opening Balance - $100
RATE INFORMATION: The iChecking account dividend rate is a variable rate. The dividend rate and annual percentage yield (APY) may change at any time, as determined by the Credit Union Board of Directors. The iChecking Annual Percentage Rate (APR) and Annual Percentage Yield (APY) is based on the number of Point of Sale (POS) transactions that post to the account during the calendar month. The minimum number of Point of Sale transactions does not include authorizations. The check card transactions only include Point of Sale transactions that have paid on the account before the end of the month. Does not include transactions made at an ATM. In addition to the Point of Sale requirements the member must have logged into Home Banking at least once, be enrolled to receive e-Statements, maintain a valid e-mail address, and have a Direct Deposit posted to the iChecking account within the calendar month for which dividends are posted.

The transaction requirements and the resulting APR/APY are as follows:

Number of Transactions	APR	APY
20-29	2.00%	2.00%
30-39	3.00%	3.00%
40-49	4.00%	4.01%
50+	5.00%	5.01%

The rates above will be paid on the average daily balance for the calendar month between $0.01 and $10,000. Any amount of the average daily balance above $10,000 will earn the current Premier Checking Account* APR and APY. Dividends are compounded monthly and credited to the account monthly.
* Reference the Credit Union Rate Schedule for current rates and APYs that apply.
