The Combination Savings Account is only available for new deposits during limited-time sales periods. To qualify for the rate offer, all you have to do is maintain a minimum balance of $5000. Our limited-time sales periods occur in January, April, July, October of each calendar year. During this time, special rates are unlocked for two weeks and deposits can be made.
For every 3-month period that you’re able to keep a minimum of $5000 saved, the Combination Savings Account pays a special rate. Interest is calculated daily on the closing balance, and paid monthly to your account. The offer rate is paid for a specific term following the sales period, and new special rates are unlocked every three months, so start saving!
