**APY is Annual Percentage Yield (APY). Rates are subject to change at any time. This is a variable-rate product, meaning that the rate may change after the account is opened. This account may be subject to maintenance or activity fees. Any fees assessed could reduce the earnings on the account.

1 Journey Checking Account Reward Information: When Journey Checking account qualifications are met during a monthly qualification period, you will receive 1.00% cash back on applicable AFFCU Visa debit card purchases (PIN-based and signature-based) on the first $500.00 spent, that post and settle to the account during the monthly statement period. A maximum of $5.00 cash back may be earned per monthly statement period. To qualify to earn the monthly Journey Checking cash back rewards, the member must be eligible for a Journey Account and login to online or mobile banking account at least one (1) time each month. Account transactions and activities may take one or more days to post and settle to the account and all must do so during the monthly qualification period in order to qualify for the account’s rewards.
The following activities do not count toward earning account rewards: ATM-processed transactions; transfers between accounts; debit card purchases processed by merchants and received by Atlantic Financial Federal Credit Union as ATM, PIN-based, or Bill Payment transactions; signature based transactions and purchases made with non-Atlantic Financial Federal Credit Union issued debit cards.
When Journey Checking qualifications are not met, no cash back payments are rewarded. Cash back payments will be credited to your Journey Checking account on the last day of statement cycle. “Monthly qualification period” means a period beginning on the first day of the calendar month through last day of the current calendar month. Account approval, conditions, qualifications, limits, timeframes, enrollments, log-ons and other requirements apply. Enrollment in and monthly access of online/mobile banking are conditions of the Journey Checking account. Enrollment in electronic services (e.g. online or mobile banking) and log-ons are required to meet some of the account’s qualifications. Limit 1 account per social security number. Rates, rewards, and qualification criteria are variable and may change after account is opened.

2 ATM Fee Information: Power Checking, PowerPlus Checking, and Journey Checking accounts are eligible to receive up to five (5) free foreign ATM transactions per month. A foreign transaction fee is a fee issued by Atlantic Financial when you use another financial institution’s or operator’s ATM (an ATM that is not an AFFCU or CO-OP Network ATM, or one of our local credit union partners ATMs). A surcharge-fee may be applicable, and the members responsibility to pay, if charged by the financial institution or ATM operator.
