A. A High Yield Savings account is a savings account that offers a higher interest rate than a traditional savings account. It is a great option if you want to save and grow your money, and still have easy access if you need it.
Q. How will a High Yield Savings account benefit me?
A. If you have ever wanted to have a little money put away for life's unexpected events or future large purchases, then a high yield savings account could be a great opportunity for you. Every dollar you put away counts and there is no better time than now to get started!
Q. How do I get the $50 to Kickstart my savings?
A. You must visit a Jackson Hewitt location to file your taxes. Then you are eligible to receive the $50 on an American Express Serve® Card or Walmart® eGift Card. Terms and Conditions apply.
Q. What should I look for when selecting a savings account?
A. You should select the savings account that is right for you. However, here are some things to keep in mind when selecting your savings account:
Interest rate – this is the percent return on your money.
Fees – lower is better. If you intend to use the account to save, look for accounts with no monthly fees or the first few transactions per month are free.
Minimum balance – low or non-minimums are best for people looking to start slow and build over time.
Q. How do I add funds to a High Yield Savings Account?
A.
Most savings accounts allow you to transfer funds directly from another existing bank account or via a mailed check. You are not normally able to use gift cards to fund a savings account.
