1Priority Money Market Terms and Conditions: You must have or open an eligible Priority Checking or Wealth Checking, or have an existing Connect Checking account. A minimum of $100 is required to open the money market account. A minimum daily collected balance of $25,000 is required to earn interest on the account. The monthly service charge of $25 can be waived if you maintain a minimum daily balance of $25,000 or more. A $15 fee will apply for each withdrawal over the limit of 6 withdrawals. A $20 closing fee will be assessed if the account is closed within the first 180 days after the account is opened. Fees may reduce earnings. To maintain Priority pricing on your Priority Money Market account, your qualifying checking account must have a minimum of 5 client-initiated debit and/or credit transactions post to the checking account per statement cycle and must be linked to the Priority Money Market account (an active, qualifying checking account). Otherwise, your Priority Money Market account (PMMA) will earn the default APY for the statement cycle. If for any reason your PMMA does not have a linked, qualified checking account, you will have at least 90 days from the date the checking account was closed or changed to link your PMMA(s) to a qualifying checking account. If not, your PMMA(s) will be converted to a Money Market Account at the terms, interest rate and APY for the Money Market Account in effect at the time of account conversion. The interest rate is variable and subject to change at the Bank’s discretion at any time without notice, before or after the account is opened. The APY will vary for other eligible linked checking account types. Refer to the Priority Money Market Account Truth in Savings Disclosure for other applicable fees, full details and APYs based on other eligible checking accounts.
