Pros and cons

Pros

  • A higher rate. Up to 5.25%, above the typical 3.65%. On $10,000 that's about $525 a year.
  • No conditions. You earn the same rate every month, with no deposits to make or withdrawals to avoid.

Cons

  • A low base rate. Only 0.00% in any month you miss the bonus conditions.
  • A balance cap. Interest is paid on up to $1,000,000, so it suits smaller balances.
