ESB Financial today announced it is offering digital downloads from Amazon.com® as rewards with the Kasasa Tunes™ checking account.
Kasasa Tunes is a free, innovative checking account that rewards consumers with digital downloads from iTunes®, and nowAmazon.com every monthly qualification cycle. It is designed for those with a passion for music and media, who want to be rewarded with digital downloads, including music, books, movies and iPhone® or iPod® applications.
“For those that want something different from their banking relationship, we wanted to offer our customers a fresh, hip account that puts the fun in banking,” said Karen Sommers, vice president of marketing at ESB Financial. “Now Kasasa account holders can use their monthly downloads to check out a new band or the latest remix, or enjoy television shows, movies, iPhone and iPod applications.”
Like all Kasasa accounts, Kasasa Tunes offers free checking, nationwide ATM fee refunds, no minimum balance to get the rewards, no monthly service fees and online banking, in addition to the digital downloads.
To get the rewards, each monthly qualification cycle account holders are asked to do a few simple things, like use a debit card a minimum number of times, and sign up to receive monthly eStatements instead of paper. If an account holder does not meet the qualifications in a given month, the account is still free and they will be eligible the following month for the benefits.
Kasasa was introduced to the Manhattan and Emporia areas in June of 2010 through an aggressive, highly engaging marketing campaign. The campaign, which featured some of America’s top slam poets, asks consumers, “Do You Kasasa?” In other words, ESB Financial is asking consumers to expect more from their banking relationships.
“Our customers are thoroughly enjoying Kasasa offerings because they speak to their lifestyle, and Kasasa Tunes continues to support that movement,” added Sommers. “The Kasasa launch has been successful for our bank and has been met with widespread support from the community.”
ESB Financial offers other Kasasa banking products, including Kasasa Cash™, and Kasasa Saver™ at all three of its branches, one in Manhattan and two in Emporia.
•
Kasasa Cash- A free checking account that pays high interest for every month the account holder qualifies.
•
Kasasa Saver – A free, high interest saver account linked to a Kasasa Cash checking account. The interest and ATM fee refunds earned in the Kasasa Cash are automatically deposited into the Kasasa Saver account when the account holders qualify. The balance in the Kasasa Saver account also earns a high rate of interest.
Kasasa is distributed to ESB Financial from BancVue, the leading provider of innovative products, dynamic marketing, and data-driven consulting solutions to community financial institutions nationwide. To date, BancVue’s products have delivered more than 1.8 million customers and nearly $18 billion in deposits to nearly 1,300 community banks and credit unions representing more than 5,000 branches around the country.
