- Kasasa Cash Back: you will receive 3.00% cash back on up to a total of $300 debit card purchases that post and settle to the account during that cycle period. A maximum of $9 cash back payments may be earned per Monthly Qualification Cycle.

- You will receive reimbursements up to an aggregate total of $25 for nationwide ATM withdrawal fees incurred within your Kasasa Cash or Kasasa Cash Back 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.

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.

Depending on your Kasasa account, the cash back payments and/or nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements earned in your account will be credited to your account on the last day of the current statement cycle.

Depending on your Kasasa account, when your qualifications are not met, cash back payments are not made, nationwide ATM withdrawal fees are not reimbursed and:

Kasasa Cash: the entire daily balance in the Kasasa Cash account earns 0.01% APY.

If Kasasa Cash or Kasasa Cash Back are linked to Kasasa Saver, the following also apply:

Kasasa Cash: When linked to a Kasasa Saver account, the interest earned within the Kasasa Cash account does not compound since it, along with any nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements are, automatically transferred to the Kasasa Saver account within one day. This automatic transfer may cause an overdraft to your Kasasa Cash account, if the account balance is less than the transferred amount when the transfer occurs.

Kasasa Cash Back: When linked to a Kasasa Saver account, the cash back payments and nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements earned in your Kasasa Cash Back account will be credited to your Kasasa Saver account on the last day of the current statement cycle.

When your Kasasa Cash qualifications are not met, the interest rate earned on the account's entire daily balance will be 0.010% resulting in a non-compounding annual percentage yield of 0.010% and ATM withdrawal fees are not refunded. In addition, the entire daily balance in the Kasasa Saver account earns an interest rate of 0.010% resulting in an annual percentage yield of 0.010%.

APY = Annual Percentage Yield.
