Money Market

This is not intended to be a transaction account. You may make only three withdrawals of any kind from your money market account during any month. The penalty indicated on the fee schedule will be charged for any withdrawals beyond three. Share drafts will count as a withdrawal during the month they clear the account. All Shares excluding Share Drafts are limited to six total transactions per month by any combination of: Overdraft transfers, ACH Debits, ATM / POS withdrawals, checks, and transfers to other shares by home banking, phone, or mobile apps.

Rate Information and Nature of Dividends

Rates are subject to change as determined by the Board of Directors. Dividends are paid from available earnings. The Credit Union anticipates paying the dividend rates on the table above. The APY (annual percentage yield) is a projected rate that takes into consideration the effect monthly compounding has on the dividend rate.

Compounding and Crediting

All Dividends on the accounts listed above will be compounded monthly. The dividend period will be the first of each month to the last day of each month. Dividends are calculated on the last day of each month and will be credited to your account on the last day of the month.

Minimum Balance

DEXSTA FCU imposes no minimum balance requirements. The Money Market account has a $5,000 minimum balance requirement to earn dividends. $5 is always required in the share account as a condition of membership.

Holiday Club

For this account, the entire balance will be transferred to your share account on the First Banking Day in October, and the account will remain open. If you withdraw any of the account balance at any time, we will close your Holiday Club account and pay you the full balance. You may make transfers or withdrawals in the first seven days after the account is opened without restriction.

Daily Balance Computation Method

DEXSTA FCU uses the daily balance method to calculate dividends, which takes a daily periodic rate multiplied by your account balance for each day.

Certificate Information

Additional Deposits: IRA and ESA certificates allow additional deposits such as contributions, rollovers, and transfers throughout the certificate term.
Maturity Notices: Your certificate will renew automatically; you will receive a maturity notice at least 10 days before it matures. Upon maturity, if we do not hear from you, your certificate balance will renew at the current interest rate posted on the Rate and Fee Schedule.
Non-transferable/Non-negotiable: Your account is non-transferable and non-negotiable. The funds in your account may not be pledged to secure any obligation of an owner, except obligations with DEXSTA.

Accrual of Dividends

Dividends begin to accrue on the day we receive your deposit. If you close an account, dividends will be paid as of that date.

*APY=Annual Percentage Yield. APY is accurate as of 11/01/2022. Rates may change after account is opened. For Kasasa Cash, if qualifications are met each monthly qualification cycle. Domestic ATM fees incurred during qualification cycle will be reimbursed up to $25 and credited to your account on the last day of monthly statement cycle. Balances up to $10,000 receive APY of 0.10%; and balances over $10,000 earn 0.10% dividend rate on the portion of the balance over $10,000, resulting in 0.10% to 0.10% APY depending on the balance. If qualifications are not met on Kasasa Cash all balances earn 0.05% APY. Qualifying transactions must post to and settle Kasasa Cash account during monthly qualification cycle. Transactions may take one or more business days from the date the transaction was made to post to and settle account. ATM-processed transactions do not count towards qualifying debit card transactions. “Monthly Qualification Cycle” means a period beginning one day prior to the first day of the current statement cycle through one day prior to the close of the current statement cycle. The advertised Kasasa Cash APY is based on compounding dividends. Dividends earned in Kasasa Cash are automatically transferred to your account each statement cycle and do not compound. Actual dividends amount paid may be less than advertised Kasasa Cash APY. Transfers between accounts do not count as qualifying transactions. Limit one account per social security number. Please speak with a DEXSTA team member for complete details.
