You dont worry if this account no offer a atm card?

[@cjack202003]

@@alfredoocando1905 Do you not understand the point of a HYSA? Keep your money in a checking account then if you need to access it all the time. Or get a checking account with the HYSA account so you can transfer money from the HYSA account to the checking account and pull the cash from the checking account. Amex has a checking account and HYSA account. The transfer between the two is instant.

[@ItsJustMeStevie]

I just opened my account at 4.35%. I opened it to get a stronger relationship before I open credit cards. I won’t ever be touching this money so don’t care about withdrawing as you stated. I currently have WF and will be also opening a credits union to also build relationship for future auto and home loan.

[@SBSJESSE]

Yup same exactly why I went with them !

[@micahgreene4573]

I just did the same. I have been with WF for almost 20 years. I now have 4 Amex cards, and I want a better relationship with them. Opened the High Yield a month ago, and just opened the checking account a few minutes ago. The checking is going to be a bit trickier, because I have 3 direct deposits with Wells and don't see myself changing that. However, since I'm already am with Amex, it's so easy to slide money over from WF to Amex.

[@PayampsCutz]

Love amex everything is excellent and customer service is incredible!!

[@thefulchman]

I’m going to do this one, I think. Amex is giving me 4.65 for being a Platinum cardholder. That extra .35 (or .30) will almost pay for the card annual fee.

[@dustinkirkland5412]

Did you register over phone or online? I am a current platinum card holder as well so curious if I will get the same increase rate. Thanks!

[@thefulchman]

@@dustinkirkland5412 I did it online. Check your email, because I had an email that gave me a specific invite link that mentioned the 4.6%. I also had another email that only offered me 4.3%, so look for that email.

AMEX quick question, you said it had to be 5k a month of a direct deposit to maintain that rate with sofi??

[@DayanaPlays]

Hey, to earn the higher rate you need to Deposit $5,000 or more every 30 days OR receive a direct deposit of at least $1.00 per month.

Does SoFi require a minimum amount for direct deposit?

[@DayanaPlays]

Hey, there is no minimum direct deposit amount required to earn the highest APY. There is to unlock other things like their sign up bonus though. Hope that helps 😊

[@f_mcdanzy]

Does direct deposit differ from depositing a certain amount from a bank account? I saw on the site they mentioned “qualifying deposits. I’m looking into SoFi but I don’t want to have my salary deposited into SoFi or another HYSA.

[@titlepending1302]

Omg yes I was thinking SoFi too but after reading they terms and policies and talking to the agents and stuff it’s really not worth it and you won’t get the full 4% APR rate because you have to consistently deposit $5000 each month in order to keep the 4% rate if you do not, it would just default to the 1.2% approximate rate

[@codyarnold4202]

Would I be allowed to withdraw money from my high yield savings account when I need?

[@cathyciolek2899]

Yes- it just takes a few days to clear.

[@DayanaPlays]

Hey! So you can’t withdraw physical cash directly from a savings account since it usually doesn’t come with an ATM card. But you can transfer money to a linked checking account to access it, which usually takes 1-2 business days to clear up. However if you have an American Express personal checking account, you can link it for easier transfers or use the atm card they gives you for cash withdrawals. You can also request a check if needed. Hope that clears things up! 😊

[@luisvillalba4759]

It is possible to open an account in sofi with a itin number?

[@DayanaPlays]

Hmmm, I don't think so. But, here are the requirements for opening a SoFi checking & savings account: support.sofi.com/hc/en-us/articles/360061565591-Who-can-open-a-SoFi-Checking-and-Savings-account Hope that clears things up! 😊

[@Djrow111]

@@DayanaPlays because the Amex is a standalone HYSA. Unlike the sofi you need a checking and a saving account in order for you to get the higher APY with direct deposit.

[@gobletoffire75]

Why not go with CIT and get 5.05% APY?

[@DayanaPlays]

Hey, I’ve talked about CIT before. The only thing I don’t like about them is that to earn their 5.05% APY, there’s a balance requirement of $5,000+; anything less than $5,000 only earns 0.25% APY, which isn't very good. Whereas with Amex, there’s no minimum opening deposit or balance requirement to earn 4.30%. But like I mentioned in the video, everyone's situation is different. Some people may be okay with CIT requirements, while others may prefer no requirements. That’s why the “best” bank/account for me may not be for you, and vice versa. 💚

[@chillinbrotha1072]

Great info but the comparison is apple to oranges because you are comparing checking to savings. There are other similar high yield savings accounts that should have been compared with Amex. I have both Amex and Discover high yield savings and have no issues with either one. They are pretty much the same.

[@DayanaPlays]

Thanks! 💚 I actually compared savings to savings. Amex high yield vs. SoFi high yield. I have talked about Discover’s highyield savings account too in recent videos, but that would’ve been a great comparison too, although I did mention them in the video as an alternative.

[@chillinbrotha1072]

@@DayanaPlays You did mention it, but when you showed the comparison on the screen, it was the high yield savings versus the Sofi checking. That’s what I was trying to point out. Appreciate the information and the detail and work you put into it
