Press Release hub banner blue with title in red white and blueTexas Capital Bancshares, Inc., parent company of Texas Capital Bank, announced today the launch of Bask Bank, a digital savings account that earns American Airlines AAdvantage® miles instead of interest.

Bask Bank’s unique collaboration with American Airlines empowers savers, giving them an incentive-based savings account to earn AAdvantage® miles. Every dollar saved is an AAdvantage® mile earned. There are no fees, no minimum balance, it’s easy to sign up and savers enjoy unlimited potential to earn miles.

Traditional savings accounts return pennies on the dollar. Bask Bank changes that by rewarding savers with miles, enhancing their saving potential and providing them with choice, value, and the opportunity to experience travel and more through the AAdvantage® program. The digital platform provides customers with the convenience of banking whenever they need while seamlessly adding the miles they earn to their AAdvantage® account.

“This new digital bank is the next step in Texas Capital Bank’s ongoing strategy to meet customer needs,” said Keith Cargill, president and CEO, Texas Capital Bank. “We were one of the first to launch a digital bank over 20 years ago, and Bask Bank will open up new possibilities and rewards to customers across the nation. Even more importantly, the digital nature of Bask Bank will bridge the gap between physical and virtual banking to deliver a premier user experience beyond mere transactions by giving savers memorable and tangible benefits for their deposits.”

Texas Capital Bank has appointed financial services industry veteran Matt Quale as president of Bask Bank. He formerly served as chief marketing officer at Brighthouse Financial, where he played a key role in the company’s spinoff from MetLife. Over a 20-year career spanning numerous industries, Quale has had key roles at American Express, McKinsey & Company, Coca-Cola and General Mills.

Quale said Bask Bank is a groundbreaker in the banking industry.

“It’s a bold new platform – a stronger option for savers who aren’t getting much out of a traditional savings account. Bask Bank helps you enjoy more of life’s experiences today, while still saving for the future,” Quale said.

“We take pride in creating opportunities for AAdvantage members to earn miles through their everyday activities,” said Bridget Blaise-Shamai, President of the AAdvantage program and Vice President of Customer Loyalty and Insights for American. “Collaborating with Bask Bank gives our customers a new way to easily earn miles toward their travel dreams while still tracking toward their financial goals.”

Opening a savings account is quick and convenient. New users can easily integrate their existing or new American Airlines AAdvantage® account and begin earning miles for every dollar they save. AAdvantage® miles are accrued daily and awarded based on average monthly balances.

Bask Bank will also offer several ways to earn AAdvantage® bonus miles, including an account opening bonus of 5,000 AAdvantage® miles, a feedback bonus and a variety of balance bonuses. Details on that and other features can be accessed here.
