America First Credit Union’s Share Savings account can be opened with just $1, which is also the amount needed to earn interest. All balances earn a paltry rate, however.	FourLeaf’s savings account comes with a near rock-bottom yield. Customers need $5 to open an account and earn interest. The account comes with an ATM card and access to more than 30,000 fee-free ATMs nationwide through the Co-op ATM network.	First Tech offers a variety of savings accounts. The account scored for this section is called Instant Access Savings, which you can open with a minimum of $25. The yield for this account is higher than the national average, but higher APYs can generally be found elsewhere. This account is also tiered, meaning the more money you have in the account, the more you’ll earn in interest. Three other savings accounts are available; two of them require much smaller opening deposits, but they also come with lower yields. The last account, called First Tech Rewards Savings, comes with a sizable APY for balances up to $25,000. All accounts come with free online and mobile banking, and there’s no monthly fee. You can link your savings account with your checking to avoid overdraft fees.

America First Credit Union offers a wide array of CDs, giving consumers a large list of terms to choose from. To boot, all CDs earn competitive yields. Just $500 is needed to open a CD and earn interest.	Members have access to term savings accounts (another name for certificates of deposit). All of the CD terms pay annual percentage yields (APYs) that are above the national average. Larger deposits are rewarded with a higher yield, as deposits of $100,000 or more earn an additional 0.1 percent APY. Quorum’s CDs all require a relatively standard $1,000 minimum deposit to open.	Bask Bank offers just four CDs, ranging from three to 24 months. While its CD list is much smaller than you may find at other banks, most of Bask’s CDs come with top-notch yields. However, you need at least $1,000 to open an account.

America First’s Money Market Checking account requires a whopping $10,000 to open. The account is tiered, meaning higher balances earn more interest. That noted, even the top-notch rate — which requires a quarter of a million dollars — is very low.	Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union’s Choice Money Market Account is a reversed tiered account, meaning customers earn a lower yield on higher balances. Customers will need at least $2,500 to start earning interest, which is relatively low compared to what you can find by shopping around. Deposits over $25,000 earn a much lower interest rate.	CIT Bank’s money market account earns interest higher than the national average, but much lower than other competitive options on the market. Customers need just $100 to open the account, which comes without monthly service fees. The CIT Bank mobile app allows customers to deposit checks remotely and make transfers.

Review methodology

With so many financial institutions to choose from, it can be hard to know who to trust. Bankrate’s ever-growing list of bank and credit union reviews is updated regularly. Our editorial team analyzes and reviews each institution across deposit products such as savings accounts, checking accounts, certificates of deposit (CDs) and money market accounts (MMAs). Banks are rated by important factors such as offered interest rates, fees, minimum balance requirements, access to funds and more.

We assign a score to each type of account and its features, weigh them carefully based on importance to account holders and determine an overall score. Read our full review methodology.

Bankrate methodology disclosure

In July 2024, Bankrate collaborated with a third-party vendor to survey 1,200 bank account holders nationwide. Bankrate and our vendor collected and summarized account holder responses to five rating questions on a 5-point scale as well as open-ended reviews of the banking experience. Responses are based on individual account holder product details, and therefore cannot be verified for accuracy. Reviewers received an incentive for their feedback. Their ratings are unedited and have not been reviewed or approved by the associated bank or credit union, nor do these responses reflect Bankrate's own expert review of these banking products.

Great bank. Have been with them for years now and would definitely recommend to anyone who is searching for a bank to open a savings account or checking account. Staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. My mom started me an account when I was in high school and when I became an adult she turned the account over to me.
