To enroll, tell us how much you want to save with each Check Card and Free Online BillPay transaction -- $0.25 or $0.50. We'll link
your checking account to a savings or money market account.
Each night, we'll take the number of Check Card and Online BillPay transactions, multiply the total by your QuickSave
SM amount, $0.50 or $0.25, and then transfer that amount to your savings or money market account in one transfer. Each year, we'll automatically transfer our match amount within 6-8 weeks after the anniversary date of your account. After you've enrolled, logon to Online Banking to see the transfer activity in both your checking account and savings account.

QuickSaveSM Transfers
Q. When does the QuickSaveSM transfer take place?
A. At the end of each business day, we determine the number of Check Card and Online BillPay transactions that are eligible QuickSave
SM transactions. We multiply the number of eligible transactions by the QuickSave
SM transfer amount, then we make a QuickSave
SM transfer; that is, we move a single credit amount to the savings or money market account.
For example, if there are three eligible transactions (Check Card or electronic Online BillPay) and the QuickSave
SM transfer amount is $.50, we will deduct $1.50 from the checking account and credit the savings or money market account with $1.50.

Q. What if the check card transaction is made on Saturday or Sunday?
A. Eligible transactions made on a non-business day will be combined with eligible transactions made on the following business day. The term "business day" means every day except Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holidays.

Q. Will the QuickSaveSM transfer occur if there are not enough funds in my checking account?

SM transfer will not be processed at a later date.
