Qualifications to earn the higher rate 

Qualifying for your Kasasa Cash or Kasasa Cash Back rewards automatically qualifies you for the highest Kasasa Saver rate, too. Paperless statements must be turned on and all of the following transactions and activities must post and settle to your Kasasa Cash or Kasasa Cash Back account during each Monthly Qualification Cycle: 

  • At least 12 debit card purchases3
  • At least 1 direct deposit or ACH payment transaction(s) 
  • Go paperless and opt out of paper statements. Log into Mobile or Online banking and check the box for paperless Member Account Statements.

And if you don’t meet these qualifications, don’t worry — your accounts are still free. Plus, you’ll still earn our nonqualifying rate on Kasasa Saver. And you can get right back to earning your full rewards the very next cycle that you qualify.
