Frequently Asked Questions

What is a high-yield online savings account?

A high-yield online savings account is a savings account with a higher interest rate than traditional savings accounts and must be opened online.

In savings accounts, interest is the amount of money you earn for leaving your money deposited with a bank. It’s typically expressed as an Annual Percentage Yield (APY), which is the amount of interest you could earn over a year, assuming that funds are not added or withdrawn. APY accounts for compound interest, which is effectively making money on your money. The more often the interest compounds, the more money you could earn.
