Methodology

How we score bank accounts

Yield that compounds

APY is modeled on realistic balances — not promotional tiers you’d never hit.

Fee transparency

Monthly maintenance, overdraft, wire, and ATM fees pull scores down unless they’re easy to waive.

Everyday usability

Mobile deposit quality, branch/ATM reach, and customer support respond to real usage patterns.

FAQ

Banking basics

Is online-only banking safe?

Reputable online banks are FDIC-insured just like traditional banks. We only feature institutions with clear deposit insurance disclosures.

Should I keep a local bank too?

Many people pair a high-yield online savings account with a fee-free checking option for daily spending — hybrid setups often win.
