Discover might be best known for its credit cards, but it also offers high-yielding deposit products. The online bank’s savings account comes with a solid interest rate and no minimum deposit or monthly fees, making it a fine place to store your emergency fund.
One thing consumers should be aware of is that Capital One recently announced its plan to acquire Discover Financial Services, which includes Discover’s line of credit and debit cards. There’s still some uncertainty on what exactly that’ll mean for customers of either bank. But pending approval, the deal isn’t expected to officially close until late 2024 or early 2025.

How Discover savings accounts compare with top-yielding banks
Discover’s high-yield online savings account offers a competitive interest rate, which comes without a monthly fee or a minimum deposit requirement, though higher rates on savings can be found at other online banks.
Other savings options at Discover
Discover also offers a money market account and a broad range of certificates of deposit, if you’re looking for other options for your savings. The money market account pays a slightly lower interest rate than the savings account.
