Persons 49+ form a league, a Major League that has earned the right to receive special privileges and a host of banking benefits. For this reason, we at Republic
consider you extra special and have designed the Major League account. As a Major League account holder, you can enjoy our attractive tiered interest rates, the convenience and security of cheques and lots
of useful extras!
A joint Major League account can also be opened once one of the account holders is 49+. What's more, once your account is joint with your spouse, he/she can take advantage of the special "Major League"
benefits, even if he/she is not 49+.
Interest is accrued on a daily balance, calculated on a daily balance and paid monthly.
Here are the benefits of your Major League account: |
A spouse who is a joint account holder qualifies for the account benefits even if under age 49. The account may also be held jointly with a person other than a spouse who is 49,
however if the person is under 49 that person does not qualify for the account benefits |
