Savings so simple your wallet won’t miss it.
Here’s how it works: every time you buy something with a Bank of America Visa® debit card, we’ll round up your purchase to the nearest dollar amount — and transfer the difference from your checking to your savings account.1 So you get to keep the change and grow your savings. What could be easier?
Save with everyday purchases, special purchases — all your purchases.
Using your Bank of America Visa® debit card is always a smart way to spend. The money comes directly out of your checking account with no charge to you for this service. And now with Keep the Change™, it’s even smarter. Because every bag of groceries, every coffee and every tank of gas adds up to more savings for you, wherever Visa® debit is accepted.
We’ll match, too.
For the first three months, we’ll match your Keep the Change savings at 100% 2. That means for every Keep the Change transfer, we’ll contribute the same amount to your account. And when the three months are over, we’ll continue contributing 5% a year, every year. To make it even easier to save. Our reward will be paid annually to your savings account
Keep the Change Terms
When you enroll in our Keep the Change savings service, we round up the amount of any Visa® debit card purchase made by you or a joint owner of your checking account to the next whole dollar amount, and transfer the amount in excess of the purchase price to your savings account.
We aggregate the round up from purchases that post to your checking account each business day and make a single transfer (the "Keep the Change" transfer) at the end of the business day. If on a business day you do not have sufficient available funds in your checking account, or if any transaction has overdrawn your checking account, we do not round up purchases posted on that business day and we cancel the Keep the Change transfer for that day.
If your Visa debit card purchase is subsequently cancelled or reversed, the corresponding Keep the Change transfer will remain in the savings account. We may cancel the Keep the Change service at any time.
