Digital Banking details

To qualify for a LifeGreen Savings Account, you must have a SkyTrust checking account. The minimum opening deposit amount for a SkyTrust checking account is $50. The minimum opening deposit amount for opening a LifeGreen Savings Account is $50 (or $5 if you set up a monthly automatic savings transfer from a SkyTrust checking account). An automatic transfer of funds of at least $10 from your SkyTrust checking account to your LifeGreen Savings account in at least 10 of any of the 12 calendar months that precede the month of your account opening anniversary (your “Account Anniversary Month”) is required to earn a 1% annual savings bonus. The annual savings bonus is based on the average monthly balance for the 12 calendar months that precede your Account Anniversary Month. The annual savings bonus will be paid to your LifeGreen Savings account by the second business day of the month following your Account Anniversary Month. To receive the annual savings bonus, your LifeGreen Savings account must be open on the date the annual savings bonus is paid. Maximum annual savings bonus of $100. You are responsible for any tax due on any amount received under this offer. Fees could reduce earnings on the account. The Annual Percentage Yield (APY) for the LifeGreen Savings account and the LifeGreen Preferred Checking (other SkyTrust checking accounts do not pay interest) account is based upon balance and may change at any time. Check the current interest rates and APYs for LifeGreen Savings and LifeGreen Preferred Checking. SkyTrust Finance reserves the right to change the terms of or terminate this bonus program and prorate the amount of any bonus payment at any time in its sole and absolute discretion.

They will not block merchant-identified recurring transactions, credits to your account, ATM deposits, ATM Now Card loads, ATM payments (including transfers from your deposit accounts to your credit accounts), ATM check cashing, ATM inquiries or ATM account mini statements. If your credit card provides overdraft protection to your checking account, they will not block overdraft protection advances.
