When your Pioneer Cash account qualifications are met
during a Monthly Qualification Cycle:
Pioneer Cash: average daily balances up to $15,000 in your Pioneer Cash account earn an interest rate of 3.93% resulting in a non-compounding APY of 4.00%; and average daily balances of $15,000 or more earn an interest rate of .50% on the portion of the average daily balance of $15,000 or more, resulting in a non-compounding range from 0.93% to 3.87% APY depending on the account's average daily balance.
When your Pioneer Cash account qualifications are not met during a Monthly Qualification Cycle:
ATM withdrawal fees are not refunded and the entire average daily balance in the account earns an interest rate of .05% resulting in a non-compounding annual percentage yield of .05%.
Account transactions and activities may take one or more days to post and settle to the account, and all must do so during the Monthly Qualification Cycle in order to qualify for the account's rewards. The following activities do not count toward earning account rewards: ATM-processed transactions, transfers between accounts, debit card purchases processed by merchants and received by our bank as ATM transactions, non-retail payment transactions, and purchases made with debit or credit 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.
You will receive reimbursements up to an aggregate total of $15 (up to $4.99 per single transaction) for nationwide ATM withdrawal fees incurred within your Pioneer 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.
"Monthly Qualification Cycle" means a period beginning one (1) day prior to the first banking day of the current statement cycle through one (1) day prior to the last banking day of the current statement cycle.
See our website at www.bankwithpioneer.com or contact one of our branch service representatives for specific Monthly Qualification Cycle dates.
