Are you looking to earn higher dividends from your Money Market Account? When you have both a Money Market Account and an Ascend Checking Account that qualifies for dividends, you will earn a special bump rate on your Money Market.4

Here are the activities that qualify your Ascend Checking for dividends and Money Market for enhanced dividends:

  • Enroll in eStatements
  • Make at least 20 debit card purchases
  • Have at least one monthly direct deposit into your Ascend Checking greater than $250

If your Ascend Checking does not meet the qualifications for dividends one month, your Money Market Account will earn dividends at the regular dividend rate. Your Ascend Checking must be open under the same membership as your Money Market Account and only one Money Market Account will qualify for the enhanced dividend rate. If you have more than one Money Market Account, you can specify which account will receive the enhanced dividend rate by speaking with a representative.

For each month you meet the Ascend Checking account dividend qualifications, you will qualify for the Money Market Account Qualifying Bump Rate. The three-monthly dividend qualifications for the Ascend Checking account are: 1) Enrollment in eStatements 2) A minimum of 20 debit card swipes per month (ATM transactions excluded) and 3) A monthly direct deposit of over $250. If the Ascend Checking dividend qualifications are not met, the Money Market will default to the standard Money Market Account Non-Qualifying Rate. Only one Money Market account may be linked to an Ascend Checking account at any time. The Money Market Account Qualifying Bump Rate will be applied to the Money Market account with the earliest opening date. If there are multiple Money Market accounts, you may select which Money Market account to apply the Qualifying Bump Rate at account opening or by reaching out to us at 800.843.7128. Future changes of your selection can be made in branch or by reaching out to us at 800.843.7128. The dividend rate and annual percentage yield may
