“Monthly Qualification Cycle” means a period beginning one (1) day prior to the first banking day of the current statement cycle through one (1) day prior to the last banking day of the current statement cycle. 

Visit docfcu.org or call 202.808.3600 for specific Monthly Qualification Cycle dates. 

Reward Information: 

Depending on what reward checking account you have, you will receive the following rewards when you meet your account’s qualifications during a Monthly Qualification Cycle: 

Advantage Rewards Checking: daily balances up to and including $25,000.00 in your Advantage Rewards account earn a dividend rate of 4.889% resulting in a non-compounding APY* of 5.00%; and daily balances over $25,000.00 earn a dividend rate of 0.25% on the portion of the daily balance over $25,000.00, resulting in a non-compounding range from 5.00% to 1.20% APY depending on the account’s daily balance. 

Advantage Cash Back Checking: you will receive 5.00% cash back on up to a total of $250.00 debit card purchases that post and settle to the account during that cycle period. A maximum of $12.50 cash back payments may be earned per Monthly Qualification Cycle. 

Advantage Savings: daily balances up to and including $100,000.00 in your Advantage Savings account earn a dividend rate of 1.982% resulting in an APY of 2.00%; and daily balances over $100,000.00 earn a dividend rate of 0.25% on the portion of the daily balance over $100,000.00, resulting in a range from 2.00% to 1.13% APY depending on the Advantage Savings account’s daily balance. 

You will receive reimbursements up to an aggregate total of $25.00 for nationwide ATM withdrawal fees incurred within your Advantage Rewards or Advantage Cash Back account during the Monthly Qualification Cycle in which you qualified. NOTE: ATM fee reimbursements only apply to Advantage Rewards or Advantage Cash Back transactions via ATM; Advantage Savings ATM transaction fees are not reimbursed nor refunded. 

Depending on your Advantage checking account, when your qualifications are not met, cash back payments are not made, nationwide ATM withdrawal fees are not reimbursed and: 

Advantage Rewards Checking: the entire daily balance in the Advantage Rewards Checking account earns 0.05% APY. 

Advantage Savings: the entire daily balance in the Advantage Savings account earns 0.05% APY. 

Dividends will be credited to your Advantage Rewards and Advantage Savings accounts on the last day of the current statement cycle. 

The cash back payments and nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements earned in your Advantage Cash Back account will be credited to your Advantage Savings account on the last day of the current statement cycle. 

If Advantage Rewards or Advantage Cash Back are linked to Advantage Savings, the following also apply: 

Advantage Rewards Checking: When linked to an Advantage Savings account, the dividends earned within the Advantage Rewards Checking account do not compound since it, along with any nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements, are automatically transferred to the Advantage Savings account within one day. This automatic transfer may cause an overdraft to your Advantage Rewards Checking account, if the account balance is less than the transferred amount when the transfer occurs. 

Advantage Cash Back Checking: When linked to an Advantage Savings account, the cash back payments and nationwide ATM withdrawal fee reimbursements earned in your Advantage Cash Back Checking account will be credited to your Advantage Savings account on the last day of the current statement cycle. 

APY = Annual Percentage Yield. 

APYs accurate as of 05/21/2026 

Rates, rewards, and bonuses, if any, are variable and may change after account is opened; rates may change without notice to you. No minimum balance is required to earn or receive the account’s rewards. Rewards of less than a penny cannot be distributed. Fees may reduce earnings.
