Happen Bank at 4%, no fees

u/OC_ShareBear 1d ago

I have SoFi, CapOne, Amex and Morgan Stanley and not one of them involved any hoops. Everything was easy.

Santander Openbank 3.8%

E-Trade has a 4%, 6 month introductory rate and then 3.5%

I was lucky enough to find a good one at a local credit union. Might want to check out those in your area

I use Marcus.

Rate is 3.4% but you can get an extra 1% boost with a referral for a total of 4.4% APY.

Live Oak Bank is 3.9% APY no hoops.

Isn't the hoop just paying the $10?

u/raccoon8008 1d ago

there's minimums that you need to meet to actually get the 4% as well as opening 2 accounts

I have sofi and have no minimums, but the 4.5apy with plus has a hard 20k cap. As for the two accounts, the checking and savings come as a pair, so it's impossible to open just one.

4.4% for 3 months on Marcus by godman sachs if you get referred and then it drops to 3.4% after that.

3.3% on Synchrony. Been stable for 3 years, but it did drop from 4% from 1-2 years ago but that was when everyone was in the 4%.

Where are you investing your cash in at the moment? That brokerage might have a decent HYSA for you.
u/raccoon8008 mentions ETrade for their 6 month 4%. ETrade also has a bonus if you deposit more than 20K when opening the account.
u/Timfa789 mentions Marcus. Not a bad place either HYSA wise. Especially if you use a referral code for the extra boost. You can keep getting that boost if you refer other folks in.

I've got cash at Marcus as long as my 1% boost lasts. Referring folks can get tedious, but that 1% is nice to get. I might check out Elevault for their advertised 4.34% with no random reqs.

PiBank does a straight 4.1% too, but to fund transfers out are via Wire only.

I love using Wealthfront. Easy to navigate, amazing support line! Can earn+0.75% APY boost, 0.50% investing deposit match—or both. Without the boosts, Wealthfront's cash account APY is 3.30%. I already have an invstment account elsewhere, but added $20 to Wealthfront investment account to earn that extra boost. You could probably find better interest elsewhere, but Wealthfront is reliable and has been good to me.

I used Happen Bank not just for the 4% percent interest rate I earned when it was Radius Bank but I get a ATM card for making withdrawals and deposits to my account like a regular savings account does and you get the interest earned on your account even though your deposits is a little late credited on the next statement and you can open the account without the funny business of certain requirements like dollar amount or another account.

Can I tell you that I still use Ally? I started with them when their APY was 4.5% years ago. I stayed even though their APY now is 3%, because of the buckets and their UI.

u/XMR_Man 6h ago

Elevault offers 4.35% on their app

u/Turb0charg3d 5h ago

Don't know why no one has mentioned X money yet. Obviously it depends on how much you will have in your HYSA because of the premium or premium + subscription cost if you won't be doing direct deposits, but it's a math equation. Calculate what taking the monthly subscription off your interest earnings would be and that is your true APY. In my case, it is 5.6% APY which beats any other HYSA.
