JPMorgan Chase is the biggest bank in the country, holding over $4.5 trillion in assets and serving 85 million customers in 2025. Despite its popularity, Chase does not offer competitive rates on high-yield savings accounts. Instead, the bank focuses on convenience, branch access, and a broad range of services to attract customers.
Chase Savings account offers a low 0.01% APY with a $5 monthly service fee that can be waived. Premier Savings and Private Savings accounts also have low APY rates of 0.01% to 0.02% and $25 monthly service fees, respectively. Traditional banks like Chase prioritize revenue from lending over deposit interest payouts.
For those seeking higher rates, online banks like SoFi offer a HYSA with 4.3% APY for the first six months and 3.6% APY thereafter. Lending Club’s LevelUp Savings provides a competitive 4% APY with no monthly fees. Alliant Credit Union offers a High-Rate Savings account with a 3.1% APY and no monthly fees, with a $100 minimum balance requirement.
Everbank’s Performance Savings account stands out with an impressive 3.9% APY, no monthly fees, and no minimum deposit requirement. Overall, customers seeking higher interest rates on savings accounts may find better options with online banks, credit unions, or specialized financial institutions.
