*APY=Annual Percentage Yield. Rate is variable and subject to change without notice. Fees may reduce earnings. The rate is accurate as of 12/28/2022.

**Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay may qualify as transactions depending on how you set up your digital wallet. If you use your debit card in the digital wallet, these transactions will count towards the requirement. If, however, you set up your digital wallet using routing and account numbers, those are processed as automatic clearing house (ACH) transactions and will not count towards the requirement. You can adjust settings inside your digital wallet. Contact us for assistance.

***If qualifications are not met, a base rate annual percentage yield will be paid on balances $0.01 and above. Please see our current rate sheet for current interest rates.
