1.2 Account Types and Tiers
We offer four (4) types of Accounts: Regular Deposit Account, High Yield (HY) Deposit Account, Bill Pay Account, and the Non-Interest Deposit Account.
The Regular Deposit Account is your default Account.
The HY Deposit Account is a separate operating account that helps you segregate and manage pre-booking deposits more effectively, holding funds that are collected ahead of guest bookings. Once the booking has been completed, you will pay out a portion of the amount to the owner of the property, less any fees and expenses and your commission.
If you have a Regular Deposit Account or HY Deposit Account, you may apply for the Bill Pay Account and/or Non-Interest Deposit Account. The Bill Pay Account may only be used to hold funds for bill pay. Approval for the Bill Pay Account and Non-Interest Deposit Account is in our sole discretion.
The Accounts that you have may affect your transaction limits, interest rate, and annual percentage yield as set forth in this Agreement. Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, all terms contained in this Agreement apply equally to all Accounts.
1.3 Paperless Account
To open an Account, you must agree to go “paperless.” This means that you must (a) provide us with and continue to maintain a valid email address and (b) accept electronic delivery of all communications that we need or decide to send you in connection with your Account by agreeing to the ESIGN Consent Document, located at https://www.topkey.io/electronic-signature-disclosure-and-consent.
1.4 How To Open an Account
You may open an Account by visiting the Program Partner’s website at https://www.topkey.io/and following the instructions there.
1.5 Minimum Deposits and Balances
There is no minimum deposit required to open an Account and no minimum balance you need to maintain in your Account.
1.6 Interest Disclosures
Bill Pay Account and the Non-Interest Deposit Account are not interest-bearing. No interest will be paid on the Bill Pay Account and Non-Interest Deposit Account.
The interest rate on your Regular Deposit Account is variable. The interest rate and annual percentage yield may change at any time. Your interest rate is based on 85% of the midpoint of the Federal Reserve funds rate, multiplied by .46.
The interest rate on your High Yield (HY) Deposit Account is variable. The interest rate and annual percentage yield may change at any time. Your interest rate is based on 85% of the midpoint of the Federal Reserve funds rate, multiplied by .89.
Interest on your account will be compounded and credited on a monthly basis. If you close your Account, you will receive any interest that has accrued as of the date your Account is closed.
We use the daily balance method to calculate the interest on your account. This method applies a daily periodic rate equal to 1/365 of the interest rate to the collected balance in the account each day. Interest will begin to accrue no later than the next business day following the banking day on which the funds were deposited.

We do not offer overdraft services or charge fees for overdrafts or non-sufficient funds. We typically will return or decline to process a transaction (including, where applicable, ATM and debit card transactions) if it exceeds your Available Balance.
However, it is still possible for you to overdraft your Account, such as when you write checks (since there is a delay between when you write the check and when we receive it for processing), when we settle authorized debit card transactions, as discussed in the “Debit Card Authorization” section of the Agreement, or if a deposit you make is returned.
You must make a deposit immediately to cover any negative balance, including a negative balance resulting from an overdraft. If your Account has a negative balance for sixty (60) calendar days or more, we may close your Account. We reserve the right to close your Account at an earlier date, as permitted by law.
