4Paycheck Perks

Paycheck Perks is only available when you have an open and active SkyOne Pay Account (QuickPay or PlatinumPay). Direct deposits may be made to any share account within the membership, but all perks—including the high-yield rate, cash-back rewards, and Round Up savings are credited to a special savings account called Perk Central, which is accessible only when a Pay Account is maintained.

*APY = Annual Percentage Yield. This rate applies to the Perk Central Account. SkyOne rates and terms are accurate as of 03/17/2025 and are subject to change after the account is opened without notice. Rates are effective as of the last dividend declaration date. $2,500 is the minimum cumulative monthly direct deposit required to earn dividends at 3.65% APY for balances between $0.00 – $100,000. Deposits above $100,000 will receive the Regular Savings account APY disclosed on the current rate sheet. Cumulative monthly direct deposits between $0.00–$2,499.99 will earn 0.05% APY. Direct deposits may be made to any share account within the membership. Dividends will be paid to the Perk Central account at the disclosed rate and APY.

Minimum Balance: No minimum balance is required to open this account. Dividends will be paid to the Perk Central account at the disclosed rate and APY provided. Rates are tiered based on the amount of cumulative monthly direct deposits made to the account. A qualifying direct deposit is a direct deposit of your salary, pension, Social Security, or other regular monthly income electronically deposited through the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network to any share account (suffix) within the same account to obtain the disclosed APY. Transfers from one account to another, mobile deposits, or deposits made at a banking location or ATM do not qualify. During the month, if there is no deposit of $2,500 or more credited to the account, the dividend rate and APY will default to the Regular Savings Account APR and APY disclosed on the current rate sheet.

Average Daily Balance Computation Method: Dividends are calculated using the average daily balance method, which applies a periodic rate to the average daily balance in the account for the period. The average daily balance is calculated by adding the balance in the account for each day of the period and dividing that figure by the number of days in the period. The period we use is the monthly dividend period.

Compounding and Crediting: Dividends will be compounded monthly and credited to your account on the last day of the month.

Maximum Deposits Allowed: While there is no maximum balance limit in the Perk Central account, accounts that qualify for the maximum dividend rate will receive the rate for up to $100,000 in deposits in their Perk Central account. Deposits above $100,000 will receive the Regular Savings Account APY disclosed on the current rate sheet.

Paycheck Perks Swipe Bonus: If you make at least 25 debit card point-of-sale purchases (excluding PIN-based transactions) of at least $1 each per month, you will receive $5.00. The funds will be credited to your Perk Central account. To qualify for the Paycheck Perks Swipe Bonus, you must be eligible for a checking account and debit card. Please note that we reserve the right to cancel or modify the Paycheck Perks Swipe Bonus program at any time without prior notice. Additionally, the Paycheck Perks Swipe Bonus is not available for business debit cards.

Round Up: When you enroll in our Round Up program, we round up the amount of any debit card purchase by you or a joint owner of your checking account to the next whole dollar amount. We then transfer the excess amount of the purchase from your checking account to the Perk Central savings account. The sum of all round-ups from debit card purchases will be transferred at the end of the day to the Perk Central account. If there is more than one checking share on the account with debit card purchases, one transfer will occur from each checking account share to the Perk Central account. If you do not have sufficient funds to transfer the sum of all round-up amounts, no transfer will occur. Only the actual debit amount will be posted. If a purchase made with your debit card is reversed or returned, only the original debit amount will be refunded. You will not see a reversal of the round-up amount. To qualify for Round Up, you must be eligible for a checking account and debit card. We may cancel or modify the Round Up program at any time without prior notice. Round Up is not available for business debit cards. You may opt out of the Round Up program at any time by contacting us at 800.421.7111, live chatting with us at www.skyone.org, or emailing us at memberservices@skyone.org.
