Ally Bank is a popular online bank that offers a variety of financial products, including a high-yield savings account and various certificates of deposit (CDs). The high-yield savings account in particular offers a competitive interest rate, making it a solid choice for consumers looking to earn a better return for an emergency fund.

Savers can also take advantage of Ally’s savings buckets, which lets them earmark portions of their high-yield savings account for different goals, like a new home or unexpected emergencies.

Ally was named the overall best bank as part of the 2024 Bankrate Awards, with a Bankrate review score of 4.9 out of 5.

It may not be worth switching to a different bank to earn a slightly higher yield, if you already bank with Ally, or value the access to Ally’s other services, such as checking, lending or investing.

Other savings options at Ally

Ally also offers a money market account, which pays the same APY as the bank’s savings account, as well as certificates of deposit ranging from three months up to five years with competitive rates.
