Our Verdict

This account earns 0.01% APY. At minimum you’ll need to maintain the balance on this account for about 61 days (deposit on last day of the 30 day period and then hold until 90th day) but I think it’s safer to assume a 90 day hold period when all is said and done. The $250 bonus is the best return and that works out to be an annualized return of 5%, as the bonuses increased that progressively gets worse (4% and then 3%). Given the current high interest rates available this isn’t worth considering and we won’t be adding this to our best savings bonuses.
