Wachovia is Committed to Helping You Save |
|
Everyone knows that saving is important. Yet a recent study by Wachovia and the Consumer Federation of America found that only 44 percent of Americans believe they’re saving or have saved enough for their short- and long-term financial goals.
At Wachovia, we believe having personal savings can provide peace of mind and put you on strong financial footing.
Introducing Way2Save
To help jumpstart your savings, Wachovia introduces an exciting new savings program - Way2SaveSM. This program makes it easy to save by automatically transferring $1 from your Wachovia checking account into your Way2Save account when you make a Check Card purchase or an electronic payment, such as an automatic debit or online bill payment.* Depending on how often you use your Check Card, and your number of online payments, you could build up hundreds of dollars in your Way2Save account before you even realize it.
Get Paid to Save
Way2Save encourages you to keep saving with attractive yields and an anniversary bonus – a 5.00% Annual Percentage Yield (APY) and a 5 percent bonus in the first year**. To build the balance in your Way2Save account even faster, you can set up a recurring weekly, biweekly or even monthly transfer totaling up to $100 per month.
Here's How it Works
If you make 20 Check Card purchases monthly, pay 5 bills online monthly and set up a monthly recurring transfer of $25 with Way2Save, you can expect to save $645 in the first year, and almost $2,000 over three years.
And, there's no need to worry about the $1 transfers overdrawing your checking account. If a transfer would cause your checking account to be overdrawn, or if your overdraft protection was initiated, the Way2Save transfer will not occur.
Can You Access Your Money Whenever You Want?
Yes! Just like any other savings account, you will have full access to the funds in the Way2Save account.
