Edgeley (CSi)\u00a0\u00a0 Dakota Plains Credit Union asks consumers, \u201cDo you Kasasa?\u201d as it becomes the next financial institution in North Dakota to launch the country\u2019s most innovative financial products.<\/p>\n

Kasasa\u00ae is a new brand of free checking and savings accounts that rewards consumers for using their account with what interests them most\u2014high interest, cash back and automatic savings. These accounts, combined with the personal service that only community financial institutions can deliver, are offering residents a better banking option than the megabank experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cConsumers deserve to have a meaningful banking experience, without the nightmare of megabank fees and mistreatment. We are pleased to offer these unique, free accounts to our community,\u201d said Michael Reisnour, President and CEO at Dakota Plains Credit Union. \u201cKasasa delivers what research shows people really want but believe they can\u2019t have\u2014great financial products with the personal service of a community based financial institution.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dakota Plains Credit Union is offering three Kasasa financial products, including Kasasa Cash\u00ae, Kasasa Cash Back\u2122 and Kasasa Saver\u00ae. All Kasasa products are free, reward-based accounts, with no minimum balance to earn the rewards or maintain the account, no monthly service fee, free online banking and free ATMs nationwide.<\/p>\n

Kasasa Cash – A free checking account that rewards consumers with high interest for every month they qualify.<\/p>\n

Kasasa Cash Back – A free checking account that rewards account holders with major cash back on everyday debit card purchases, without points or category restrictions like the big guys. The cash back amount is based on how much a consumer spends on his or her debit card.<\/p>\n

Kasasa Saver – A free, high interest saver account linked to a Kasasa Cash checking account or Kasasa Cash Back checking account. The interest and ATM fee refunds earned in the Kasasa Cash account [or the cash back and ATM fee refunds earned in the Kasasa Cash Back account] are automatically deposited into the Kasasa Saver account when the account holders qualify. The balance in the Kasasa Saver account also earns a high rate of interest.<\/p>\n

To receive the Kasasa account benefits, each monthly qualification cycle consumers are asked to do a few simple things like receive an eStatement, access online banking and use a debit card a minimum number of times. If an account holder does not meet the qualifications in a given month, Dakota Plains Credit Union will alert the individual, who will be eligible the following month for the benefits.<\/p>\n

\u201cExtensive research has shown us that consumers would prefer to do business with community financial institutions, but feel they would lose access to products,\u201d continued Reisnour. \u201cKasasa is opening people\u2019s eyes to a new banking model where no sacrifices are necessary. It\u2019s a win-win because account holders get innovative products and personalized service.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kasasa is distributed to Dakota Plains Credit Union from BancVue, the leading provider of innovative products, dynamic marketing, and data-driven consulting solutions to community financial institutions nationwide to help them win the war against the megabanks.<\/p>\n
