Federal Rates Increase for First Time Since 2023 + Why You Should Care

When federal rates go up, high yield savings accounts follow, meaning your money earns more just by sitting in the right place. HYSAs are currently offering APYs up to 15x higher than a traditional savings account, are FDIC-insured, and take less than 10 minutes to open.

If you've been putting it off, this is your sign. Open a high yield savings account now and let the rate increase work for you. You can learn more about the ones we recommend below!
