You will start to earn interest on the business day your deposit is received.
Interest is compounded daily and credited to your account monthly. Use our calculators for more information.
APY stands for Annual Percentage Yield and is the effective annual rate of return taking into account the effect of compounding interest.
APY: The annual percentage yield (APY) reflects the total amount of interest paid on an account based on the interest rate and the frequency of compounding. APY Example: An account with an interest rate of 2.47% will effectively yield 2.50% over a one-year period due to compounding. APYE: The annual percentage yield earned (APYE) for periodic statements is an annualized rate that reflects the relationship between the amount of interest actually earned on your account during the statement period and the average daily balance in the account for the statement period. APYE Example: An account with an interest rate of 1.09% (APY 1.10%) for the first part of the statement period and a rate of 1.19% (APY 1.20%) for the second part of the statement period would have an APYE in between 1.10% and 1.20%. The actual percentage would depend on the weighted average of the balance in the account during those time periods.
