(a) Your initial deposit must be equal to or greater than the minimum balance requirement.
(b) The monthly service charge is charged if the balance in your account falls below the required minimum balance during the monthly cycle. Otherwise, it is waived.
(c) Interest will be compounded daily and credited to your account monthly. We use the daily balance method to calculate the interest on your account. This method applies a daily periodic rate to the principal in the account each day. Interest begins to accrue on the business day you deposit non-cash items (for example, checks). You must maintain the minimum balance requirement in the account each day to obtain the disclosed annual percentage yield. If you close your account before interest is credited, you will receive your accrued interest. Your interest rate and annual percentage yield may change at any time.
(d) The monthly statement fee is waived if you elect for electronic statements in lieu of paper statements.
(e) Poppy Cares Checking is for community non-profit organizations only.
(f) The first six withdrawals during a month cycle are free of charge. The $5 per withdrawal fee will apply to any withdrawals after the first six.

Refer to the Business Schedule of Fee & Charges for additional fees that may apply to your account.
