1 Interest rate is variable and may change at any time.
2 A Vertical Rewards Premier Checking Account (the “Account”) is a variable interest rate account. During the first 3 statement cycles following account opening (the “Introductory Period”), the annual percentage yield (“APY”) for daily collected balances, up to and including $250,000, may be a maximum of 3.00% APY, provided that a direct deposit via ACH has posted to the Account each statement cycle. If a direct deposit does not post to the Account during a statement cycle during the Introductory Period, all daily collected balances, up to and including $250,000, will earn the base interest rate of 0.25% APY (“Base Interest Rate”) for that statement cycle, and the Account will still be eligible to earn rewards during the next cycle. All daily collected balances greater than $250,000 are not eligible to, and will not, earn the Base Interest Rate or any interest rate rewards. After the Introductory Period, the APY on daily collected balances, up to and including $250,000, in the Account may range from 0.25% APY to 3.00% APY depending upon (i) a direct deposit via ACH, and (ii) a minimum of seven (7) additional qualifying banking services transactions post to your Account. If the direct deposit and/or the minimum number of Qualifying Services are not met during a statement cycle, all daily collected balances, up to and including $250,000, will earn the Base Interest Rate for that statement cycle. APYs stated herein are accurate as of 2/10/2025. APYs stated herein are established by BankUnited, N.A. (“BankUnited”) in its sole discretion and may change at any time. Balances greater than $250,000 are not eligible to, and will not, earn interest or rewards. Minimum opening deposit is $10,000. Transactions must post and settle to the Account during the applicable statement cycle. Banking services transactions may take one or more business days from the transaction date to post to the Account.
For all BankUnited Checking Accounts:
A $15 early closeout fee will be assessed if the Account is closed within 180 days of the account opening date. Fees may reduce earnings. Additional fees, terms and conditions apply.
Please refer to our applicable product disclosures, Depositor’s Agreement and Consumer Schedule of Fees for additional information.
