* Annual Percentage Yield (APY) is accurate as of viewing date, variable and may change after the account is opened at the Bank's discretion. The minimum opening balance is $50.00 when account is opened at an Amegy Banking Center; the minimum opening balance is $100 when account is opened online. A 1.99% APY will be paid on balances up to $25,000 and 0.50% APY will be paid on balances over $25,000 each statement cycle the account requirements are met, resulting in a blended APY between 1.99% and 0.50% depending on the balance in the account. When the following requirements are not met each statement cycle, the account will earn a 0.05% APY: direct deposit of payroll, social security or other retirement benefits or two (2) ACH debits; 10 net signature-based check card transactions posted to account (net signature-based transactions posted equals signature-based debits minus signature-based credits); receive e-Statements; maintain a valid email address; and login to online banking. Eligible for personal accounts only. See an Amegy banker for more information.
