What makes a High Yield Savings Account different?

A High Yield Savings Account is similar to a Savings Account in which you can easily access your money, transfer between accounts, and earn interest*. It’ll also help you reach your financial goals faster by offering an APY that’s 20-25 times higher than the national average on a Savings Account. Let’s put that into perspective!

If you put $5,000 into a Savings Account at .05%APY, you’d earn $2.50 after one year. 

If you put $5,000 into a High Yield Savings Account at 3.04%APY, you’d earn $152 after one year.
