It's Easy to Earn Your Rewards
It's so easy to qualify, you're probably already doing it. Enrollments must be in place and all of the following transactions and activities must post and settle to your MoneyMaking Checking account during each monthly Qualification Cycle:
- Have at least 12 Monson Savings Bank debit card purchases post and settle; and
- Have at least 1 direct deposit or ACH automatic payment post and settle; and
- Be enrolled in and agree to receive eStatements
That's it. Even if you don't meet your qualifications during the cycle, your MoneyMaking Checking account is still free. Plus, you'll still earn our base interest rate. And you can get right back to earning your full rewards the very next month.
1APY=Annual Percentage Yield. APYs accurate as of December 21st, 2024.
Rates may change after account is opened. Minimum to open is $10. Minimum to earn APY is $.01. Fees could reduce the earnings on the account. No monthly service fee. Available for personal accounts only. Limit one account per tax owner. If under 18, requires a parent or legal guardian to be a co-signer on the account.
When the MoneyMaking Checking qualifications are met during a monthly Qualification Cycle, 1) an interest rate of 1.00% will be paid on the portion of your daily balance that is less than or equal to $25,000 and the annual percentage yield (APY) for this tier is 1.00%. An interest rate of 0.25% will be paid on the portion of your daily balance that is greater than $25,000, resulting in an annual percentage yield for this tier ranging from 1.00% to 0.40%, depending on the account’s balance and 2) nationwide ATM fees posted to your checking account during the monthly Qualification Cycle will be reimbursed and credited to the account on the last day of the monthly Statement Cycle.
The MoneyMaking Checking account is intended to be the accountholder's primary checking account in which payroll transactions and day-to-day spending activities including but not limited to grocery, gasoline, apparel, shopping, dining, sporting, and entertainment transactions are posted and settled.
When the MoneyMaking Checking qualifications are not met during a monthly Qualification Cycle, the interest rate paid on the entire balance will be 0.05% with an annual percentage yield of 0.05% and ATM fees are not refunded.
The disclosed MoneyMaking Checking APY is based on compounding interest and on an assumed total account balance of $125,000.
Qualifying transactions MUST post to and settle your account during the monthly Qualification Cycle. They may not be in a pending state to qualify as one of the qualifications. Transactions may take one or more days from the date the transaction was made to post to and settle an account. The following transactions do not count toward earning account rewards: ATM processed transactions, transfers between accounts, debit card transactions processed by merchants and received by the bank as ATM transactions, non-retail payment transactions and purchases made with debit cards not issued by our bank. Transactions bundled together by merchants and received by our institution as a single transaction count as a single transaction for the purpose of earning account rewards.
The “Statement Date” is the 3rd Wednesday of the month; however, if the 3rd Wednesday of the month is a non-business day (i.e., federal holiday) then the statement date will be the business day prior to the 3rd Wednesday of the month.
The “Qualification Cycle” means a period beginning on the Statement Date of the month and ends the business day prior to the Statement Date of the next month.
The “Statement Cycle” begins the day after the Statement Date of the month and ends the day prior to the Statement Date of the next month.
