Earn More With Max

Banks that operate online have lower operating costs, and they can pass on these savings to depositors in the form of higher rates. Max intelligently proposes to you an optimal allocation of your balances each month to help you earn the best prevailing rates. With Max, you can earn up to 5.15%. That’s 4.55% to 4.75% more than you might otherwise earn at a traditional “brick-and-mortar” bank and well above what most money market funds are now paying.
