Qualification Information:

"Monthly Qualification Cycle" means a period beginning one (1) banking day prior to the first banking day of the current statement cycle through one (1) banking day prior to the last banking day of the current statement cycle.
Reward Information:
When your Kasasa Cash account qualifications are met during a Monthly Qualification Cycle, daily balances up to and including $25,000 in your Kasasa Cash account earn a dividend rate of 5.98% resulting in an APY of 6.00%; and daily balances over $25,000 earn a dividend rate of 0.75% on the portion of the daily balance over $25,000, resulting in a range from 6.00% to 1.80% APY depending on the account's daily balance.
You will receive reimbursements up to $25 for nationwide ATM withdrawal fees incurred within your Kasasa Cash account during the Monthly Qualification Cycle when qualifications are met. A foreign ATM fee reimbursement cap of up to $4.99 per transaction applies when qualifications are met.

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. NOTE: ATM fee reimbursements only apply to Kasasa Cash or Kasasa Cash Back transactions via ATM; Kasasa Saver ATM transaction fees are not reimbursed nor refunded. When your Kasasa Cash account qualifications are not met, ATM withdrawal fees are not refunded.
When your Kasasa Cash qualifications are not met, the dividend rate earned on the account's entire daily balance will be 0.01% resulting in an annual percentage yield of 0.01% and ATM withdrawal fees are not refunded.
Dividends will be credited to your Kasasa Cash account on the first processing/business day of the following statement cycle.
Nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements will be credited to your account on the first processing/business day of the following statement cycle.
