The 2024 Bankrate Awards

At Bankrate, we take pride in our rigorous methodology for identifying the true winners in each category. Our editorial team goes through hundreds of financial companies and products with a fine-tooth comb to present you with the best of the best each year.

Our editorial team sticks to our methodology and evaluates each company and product based on the same set of criteria, leaving no room for bias or favoritism.

Nope! No one can pay to win. Our experienced editorial team determines the winners with zero influence from anyone else.

We’re glad you asked! Bankrate Awards recipients are considered the best in personal finance for the year. Our “Best” articles usually highlight multiple solid options in different categories, rather than ranking them to find one winner. One thing you can count on: If our team is recommending a product, we truly believe it’s great.
