Pen Air's high-yield checking account pays up to 5.05% APY on daily balances of $10,000 or less when you meet the monthly qualification requirements. You must receive at least one ACH deposit of $250 in a single day and be enrolled in e-statements each qualification cycle. Balances over $10,000 earn 0% APY, and if you fail to meet the requirements, the entire balance earns 0% APY.

- If you fail to meet any of the minimum qualification requirements during the qualification cycle, 0% APY applies to the entire balance.
