*APY = Annual Percentage Rate. When your Kasasa Cash – Multi Level account qualifications are met during a Monthly Qualification Cycle, daily balances up to and including $15,000 in your Kasasa Cash account earn a dividend rate of 5.8400% resulting in an APY of 6.00%; and daily balances over $15,000 earn a dividend rate of 0.2497% on the portion of the daily balance over $15,000, resulting in a range from 6.00% to 1.00% APY depending on the account's daily balance. When your Kasasa Cash – Multi Level account qualifications are not met during a Monthly Qualification Cycle, ATM withdrawal fees are not refunded and the entire daily balance in the Kasasa Cash - Multi Level account earns a dividend rate of 0.0499% resulting in an annual percentage yield of 0.05% APY.

When Kasasa Cash Back – multi level account qualifications are met during a monthly qualification cycle, you will receive 6.00% cash back on up to a total of $250 debit card purchases (POS transaction of $5.00 or more to qualify) that post and settle to the account during that cycle period. A maximum of $15 cash back payments may be earned per monthly qualification cycle.

You will also receive reimbursements up to the aggregate total of $25 for nationwide ATM withdrawal fees incurred within your Kasasa Cash Back-Multi Level account during that Monthly Qualification Cycle. We reimburse ATM withdrawal fees based on estimates when the withdrawal information we receive does not identify the ATM withdrawal fee. If you have not received an appropriate reimbursement, we will adjust the reimbursement amount if we receive the transaction receipt within sixty (60) calendar days of the withdrawal transaction.
