How we can help

Our savings account layer offers benefits and rewards made to help you hit goals faster, along with access to Bank of America's broad network of support.

What is a savings account?

A savings account is a deposit account that generally earns higher interest than an interest-bearing checking account. Savings accounts limit the number of certain types of transfers or withdrawals you can make from the account each monthly statement cycle.

Tiered Savings

As your account balance grows, your interest rate has the potential to increase too.
