BreakFree
APY = annual percentage yield. The BreakFree Checking dividend rates are valid as of May 1, 2013 and subject to change at any time. Earn a competitive annual percentage yield up to the maximum balance of $20,000. All balances earn the base annual percentage yield. Requires sign-on to Online Banking one time per month, one direct deposit or ACH withdrawal per month, and 12 debit card/POS transactions of $3 or more each month to earn BreakFree rates. Qualifying transactions must post to and clear account during monthly qualification cycle. Free ATMs nationwide. ATM foreign surcharge fees will be refunded monthly (excludes international ATMs, balance inquiries, and ATM deposit fees). Members not meeting requirements will not earn ATM foreign surcharge fee refunds. One account per member. $25 minimum opening deposit; no monthly minimum balance required.
BreakFree Checking dividends will be displayed on the monthly statement as two entries: “Dividend Credit” and “Rewards Credit.” The dividend credit is the base rate earned by all BreakFree members whether or not the account has met the reward rate criteria for the statement cycle. If the criteria for the reward rate have been met, a second entry will display the reward credit. Because the base dividend has already been paid, the reward credit will be the reward rate less the base rate. For example, if the BreakFree reward is 3.00% APY and you have earned the reward rate, your statement will show a dividend credit of 0.05% APY and a reward dividend credit of 2.95% APY.
