- Progressive Bank has the rewards interest checking account. This account earns 4.05% APY on balances up to $25,000 when the following requirements are met:
- At least 12 Debit Card Purchase transactions each month (statement cycle)
- At least 1 automatic debit or 1 direct deposit each month (statement cycle)

The Fine Print

Avoiding Fees
This account has no monthly fees as long as you’ve opted for eStatements
Our Verdict
Another high yield savings account. Unfortunately it requires a direct deposit, although still might be a good option for some people in Louisanna. We still need to know if it’s a hard/soft pull to open and if there is any credit card funding.
