KASASA CASH® CHECKING

 

Earn up to 4.00%* APY on your balance up to $15,000.00, plus ATM withdrawal fee refunds!

 

We have two unique levels of our Kasasa Cash checking account, Level one and Level two. The only difference between the two levels is the number of times you swipe your BFH debit card a month and the interest rate that coincides. That's it. It's that easy.

Use your card more (25 times or more), and you qualify for the higher interest rate (assuming you meet the qualifications listed below).
