Free Blue Bonus Cash Checking:
Annual Percentage Yield (APY) varies by account, account balance and if qualifications are met. See Reward Information Section below for account APY information.
Reward Information:
Average daily balances up to and including $7,500.00 receive and APY of 2.00% and average daily balances over $7,500.00 earn an interest rate of 0.25% on the portion of the average daily balance over $7,500.00, resulting in a range from 0.25% to 2.00% APY depending on the account’s average daily balance.
You will receive reimbursements up to an aggregate total of $20.00 for nationwide ATM withdrawal fees incurred within your Blue Bonus Cash account during that monthly Statement 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.
Non-Qualification:
When your qualifications are not met, nationwide ATM withdrawal fees are not reimbursed, and the entire average daily balance in the Blue Bonus Cash account earns 0.05% APY.
