Decent but there are plenty of higher yield savings accounts out there


Do you have some you can provide?



Interested in this as well, because I've been doing research on this and it seems like the ones that aren't banks you've heard of that have higher yields are more prone to playing games with your account (not adjusting your APR but instead keeping you on whatever and creating new accounts for the new plans).


Yeah a lot of the high yield savings accounts feel gamified where it suddenly feels a hell of a lot less simple than "savings account". More "high yield if ... <moving target>".


CIT has two options:

Savings Connect [1]: 4.50% APY, no minimum balance, no fees

Platinum Savings [2]: 4.75% APY, min. $5000 balance to qualify for APY, but once you qualify 4.75% APY on whole balance (not just balance above $5000)

I use the savings connect personally and am considering whether or not I want to open a platinum savings account.
