      View our Bask Bank Fee Schedule for full details.

      Is there a minimum deposit required to open a Bask Bank account?

      There is no minimum deposit required to open a Bask Mileage Savings Account, Bask Interest Savings Account or Bask Interest Checking Account. However, if your account remains unfunded for 15 business days, we reserve the right to close the account. 

       

      Bask Certificate of Deposit (CD) Accounts require a $1,000 minimum balance. CDs that don’t receive an initial deposit of $1,000 within 10 business days, will be closed. 

      How many Bask Bank accounts can I have at once?

      You can have up to the following:  

       

      • Two individually owned and two jointly owned Bask Interest Savings Accounts. 

      • One individually owned and one jointly owned Bask Interest Checking Accounts. 

      • One individually owned Bask Mileage Savings Account. 

      • Five individually owned and five jointly owned Bask Certificate of Deposit (CD) Accounts per term length. 

      Do you offer a debit card or ATM card for Bask Bank accounts?

      Your Bask Interest Checking account offers a complimentary Visa® debit card that can be used to access cash from an ATM or to make purchases anywhere Visa is accepted.    

       

      Debit cards are not available for Bask Interest Savings Accounts, Mileage Savings Accounts or CDs. 

      Does Bask Bank offer joint bank accounts?

      Joint accounts are available for Bask Interest Savings Accounts, Bask Interest Checking Accounts and Bask Certificate of Deposit (CD) Accounts. 

      How and when will I receive my tax documents?

      You’ll receive a copy of your 1099-INT form by mail to the address on file postmarked by January 31st of each year if the interest earned for the prior year exceeds $10 for all accounts held with Bask and Texas Capital Bank. 

       

      1099-INT forms are also located in Online Banking under Documents. An email notification is sent when it becomes available online. 

      How do I report an error on my statement?

      If you believe there was a transaction error on your statement, please contact Customer Support at  833.260.4320 Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. CT or send us a secure message.  

       

      You must notify us of any error or discrepancy within 60 days from the monthly statement date.  

      How do I dispute a charge on my account?

      If you see a charge on your debit card that wasn't made by you or anyone authorized to use your account, please contact Customer Support at 833.260.4320 and select the option for Debit Card.  

       

      For charge errors that you recognize but appear to be incorrect, first, contact the merchant to see if you can resolve the problem. Merchants may be able to resolve charge errors and product and shipping issues. If you're unable to reach a resolution with the merchant, contact us to start a dispute. 

      Can I opt in to receive paper statements through the mail?

      To request a paper statement, please contact Customer Support at  833.260.4320 or send us a secure message in Online Banking.

      Why does the rate I see look different from the APY that Bask Bank advertises?

      For Bask Certificate of Deposit (CD) Accounts, Bask Interest Checking, and Bask Interest Savings Accounts, you may see the rate displayed in Online Banking as the simple interest rate, which does not include the effects of compounding interest. The Annual Percentage Yield (APY), which is often shown on our website and other communications, includes the benefits of compounding interest. Bask Bank compounds interest on your account daily, so the base rate translates into the correct APY on an annual basis. The base rate may appear as a lower number than the APY.  

       

      In the event that rates change mid-month for your Bask Interest Savings Account, the rate shown may reflect a weighted average of the rates applied during that month.

        How do I open an account, and what will I need to complete my application?

        Read more in our Account Agreement, Terms & Disclosures.

        Why was my application denied?

                  Bask Mileage Savings Accounts

                    How do I earn American Airlines AAdvantage® miles?

                    The Bask Mileage Savings Account awards 2.5 AAdvantage® miles for every dollar saved annually. Miles accrue daily and are awarded monthly based on your average monthly balance. For example, if the account’s daily balance for January is $60K, you will earn 12,740 AAdvantage® miles for that month ([$60K X 2.5] ÷ 365 × 31).

                     

                    Note: The number of days is specific for each month being calculated. If that same balance is maintained in February, you will earn 11,507 AAdvantage® miles, since February has 28 days. After one year of maintaining an average balance of $60,000, the customer will have earned 150,000 AAdvantage® miles. As long as you maintain a balance in your Bask Mileage Savings Account, you will continue earning AAdvantage® miles.

                     

                    For more information, see full details within our Account Agreement, Terms & Disclosures. Rates are subject to change. AAdvantage® miles awarded through Bask Bank do not count toward elite status qualification or AAdvantage® Million Miler status.

                    When will mileage awards be processed and posted to my AAdvantage® account?

                    You will start earning AAdvantage® miles on the business day we receive your deposit. Bask Bank awards the miles you earn for maintaining a balance each month on or before the fifth business day of the following month. For example, AAdvantage® miles earned throughout January will be posted in your Bask Mileage Savings Account on or before the 5th business day of February. Miles earned through Bask Bank will post to your linked AAdvantage® account within six to eight weeks.

                     

                    If applicable, bonus AAdvantage® miles are awarded based on terms of the specific bonus offer. See the Bonus Miles Terms and Conditions for additional information.

                     

                    Before earning miles, you must provide your AAdvantage® number to link your Bask Bank account. If you do not link the correct AAdvantage® number, miles earned through Bask Bank will not post to your American Airlines account.

                    How do additional deposits and withdrawals impact my earning?

                    AAdvantage® miles are accrued daily and awarded based on your average monthly balance. If you deposit more, you will earn more miles. If you make a withdrawal, your earned miles will decrease. For example, if you start with $36,500 you will accrue 250 AAdvantage® miles each day that you maintain that balance. If you then withdraw $10,000 and your new balance is $26,500, you will accrue 182 AAdvantage® miles each day. If you take all your money out in the middle of the month, you will have earned miles for the days where you maintained a balance.

                    Are AAdvantage® miles earned through Bask Bank taxable?

                    AAdvantage® miles awarded by Bask Bank for maintaining a deposit balance are viewed as interest income. This income will be reportable to the IRS and to you for the year in which the miles were posted to your AAdvantage® account. Bask Bank calculates an interest equivalent based on a good faith estimate of the value of the miles. Your interest rate and annual percentage yield may change based on a change in either the miles award rate or the estimated value. For tax purposes, miles are considered to have a value of 0.42 cents. At our current rate of 2.5 miles per dollar saved annually, this represents a taxable APY of 1.05%.

                     

                    AAdvantage® bonus miles awarded for other activities will also be considered reportable as either miscellaneous income or interest income, depending on the nature of the award. Bask Bank will issue each customer the appropriate IRS Form 1099-INT for the AAdvantage® miles awarded each calendar year by January 31. For more information, visit our Account Agreement, Terms & Disclosures.

                    Bask Certificates of Deposit

                      What is a Certificate of Deposit (CD)?

                      A certificate of deposit (CD) is a bank account that earns a fixed interest rate in exchange for locking in your deposit for a specified term. Bask Bank offers CD terms ranging from 6 months to 24 months.

                      How can I open a new CD?

                      If you’re new to Bask Bank, visit our Bask Certificates of Deposit Products page and click Choose your CD Rate. Select the CD term that works for you and follow the steps to complete your application. 

                       

                      If you already have an account with us, you can open a new CD account by logging in to Online Banking and clicking Discover Products. Once you’ve chosen the desired CD term, click Open CD. Follow the steps to complete your application.

                      What do I need to know about funding my new CD?

                      You must fund your new CD with a single, lump-sum deposit of at least $1,000 within the first 10 business days after opening the account. If your CD is not funded with at least $1,000 within 10 business days, your account will be closed automatically. Once you make the initial deposit, you will not be able to make any additional deposits until the renewal grace period at completion of the CD term.

                      Can I have more than one CD?

                      You can have up to five individually owned and five jointly owned CD accounts per CD term length.

                      Can I withdraw money from my CD early?

                      You may withdraw interest that has been credited to your account during the current term without penalty, but you will be subject to an early withdrawal penalty if any portion of your principal balance is withdrawn.

                       

                      • CDs with terms of 6 months up to and including 1 year are subject to a fee of 90 days of simple interest based on the principal amount withdrawn.
                      • CDs with terms greater than 12 months are subject to a fee of 180 days of interest based on the principal amount withdrawn.

                       

                      If your accrued interest is less than the penalty's total amount, the difference will be deducted from your principal.

                      Can I make additional deposits to my CD?

                      Funds may only be added to an existing CD account during the renewal grace period following the CD maturity date.   

                       

                      Additional CD accounts can be opened at any time. You can have up to five individually owned and five jointly owned CD accounts per CD term length.  

                      What happens when my CD matures?

                      Thirty (30) days before the end of your CD term, Bask Bank will send you a reminder that your CD is about to reach its maturity date. You'll have a grace period of 10 calendar days after the CD maturity date to add or withdraw funds, move funds into another Bask Bank CD account or adjust your term. 

                       

                      If no action is taken, your CD will automatically be renewed for the same term. You'll receive a renewal notice with the new rate after the grace period ends. 

                       

                      If you choose to close your CD during the grace period, log in to Online Banking and follow these steps to submit a CD Closure request: 

                       

                      On the web:

                      Does the interest rate on my CD change?

                      The interest rate and Annual Percentage Yield (APY) are a fixed rate for the term length of the CD.
