Pelican State Credit Union increases dividends on checking and savings accounts
BATON ROUGE, LA (October 13, 2022) — On Saturday, October 1, 2022, Pelican State Credit Union announced that the max APY on their Kasasa Cash rewards checking account increased to 5.11%–the highest rate offered in the state, and one of the highest reward checking rates in the country.* In addition, the max APY on their Kasasa Saver savings account increased to 1.00% APY.
The APY increase on the rewards checking account coincides with an increase in the maximum balance to earn it! Remaining balances over the $10,000 tier 1 maximum also earn rewards, ranging in 5.11% – 3.00% APY depending on the average balance.
The requirements needed to earn rewards are easy. Even if members don’t qualify during a period, they can try again the next month and they’ll still earn 0.05% APY.
The decision to raise the rates demonstrates one of the many ways that Pelican Pays its members and offers competitive products and services.
