How Ally Bank rates compare with top-yielding banks
Ally’s CD rates are competitive. Ally has slightly fewer options for long-term CDs than some other banks, but it’s still easy to establish a CD ladder.
Bread Financial (formerly Comenity Direct) and Limelight Bank and some other online banks offer higher rates on a one-year CD, for instance. But unlike Ally they also have minimum deposit requirements.
Other savings options at Ally
Ally offers an online savings account that earned 4.9 out of 5 stars by Bankrate, if you need more flexibility with your savings. The savings account pays the same interest rate as (or better than) some of Ally’s CD terms.
Ally’s money market account is another option that offers the same rate as its savings account.
