A checking account is one of the basic building blocks of our financial lives where we put the money for our daily needs. There are many different checking accounts to choose from including Arbor Financials Momentum Checking Account. Here are a few of the key features that make the Momentum Checking Account unique and may suit your lifestyle. 

Program Basics 

This checking Account is best for people who use their debit card regularly. The more you use your card, the more you earn; in fact, you can earn up to 4.00% APY on $15,000. 

Track Your Progress Towards 4.00% APY


A convenient tracker is found within Mobile & Online Banking, so you can easily track your progress to the next earning level. Your APY is calculated monthly and applied to your account. If you don't meet the minimum debit card purchases to earn interest, that's okay. The account has no monthly service fees or minimum requirements. Plus, earning 4.00% APY is even faster, now you just need 20 debit card swipes to earn the highest yield!
