This free account works side-by-side with your Cash Reward or Cash Back Rewards Checking to help you save the easy way. That’s because every month it receives automatic deposits of the dividends and ATM refunds* you earn with Cash Reward or Cash Back Rewards.  Plus, your Kasasa Saver balance also earns a competitive rate, so it will grow even faster. All you have to do is meet the qualifications of your Kasasa Cash or Kasasa Cash Back account every monthly qualification cycle, then sit back and let the savings begin!

Earn 0.55% APY* on all Kasasa Saver balances up to and including $25,000.00 and .25% APY on balances over $25,000.00, depending on balance in account when you meet your qualifications in Kasasa Cash.  Earn 0.05% APY if qualifications are not met on Kasasa Cash.*  Since rewards are moved to savings, the dividends in your Kasasa Cash will not compound.*

Kasasa Saver must be paired with either a Kasasa Cash Checking account or a Kasasa Cash Back account. Please select the option below that describes your account opening preference:
