Note: APY = Annual Percentage Yield. Dividends are compounded daily and credited monthly based on the average daily balance method. You must satisfy all of the requirements in our Truth in Savings disclosure during each qualification period to obtain the qualifying percentage yield. ATM fees may be refunded up to $25.00 on qualified accounts. If you close your account before accrued dividends have been credited to your account, all accrued dividends will be forfeited. Fees may reduce earnings. No minimum balance required, although $5 must be deposited into a Prime Savings Account in order to open a Grow Green Rewards Checking Account. Balances over $15,000 earn .05% APY. If requirements are not met, the APY on all balances will be .05% APY and normal ATM fees will apply. This rate is effective as of 4/1/2023 and is subject to change. See Member Service Representative for additional disclosures.
