IncredibleBank Review

IncredibleBank accounts do not have monthly fees. The checking and savings accounts are completely free accounts. The CDs do not have a monthly fee. The only fees are from withdrawing your money before the CD reaches maturity.

The interest rates on the IncredibleBank saving account and CDs are high. They are competitive with other online-only accounts. The interest rates are much higher than your typical brick and mortar interest rates. Even the interest rates offered for lower balances in the accounts are competitive.

IncredibleBank offers a money market account specifically for businesses. This account comes with free online banking, mobile banking, and bill pay. To open the account requires $2,500. If your balance falls below $2,500, a fee of $10 will be charged. There is a $5 monthly fee if you do not sign up for electronic statements. This account earns a competitive interest rate for money market accounts for businesses.

With an IncredibleBank checking account, you will be reimbursed for domestic ATM fees. ATMs through the MoneyPass network are free. If you use an ATM not part of that network, IncredibleBank will reimburse you the fee you are charged. This does not apply to international ATM fees.

The required amounts to open IncredibleBank accounts are high. The opening required amount for checking accounts are $500. To open a savings account with IncredibleBank requires $2,500 to open. All the different CD terms require $1,000 to open.

IncredibleBank has a limited amount of accounts available. There is only one checking account and one savings account to choose. IncredibleBank offers CDs, but only three different term lengths. Those terms are a 12-month, 24-month, and a 36-month term.

To earn the highest interest rates, IncredibleBank requires a large balance. The savings account requires $25,000 to earn the highest rate offered. Balances below that amount still earn competitive interest rates. The lower rates are higher than your typical brick and mortar bank rates.

The IncredibleBank checking account does not earn interest. To open the account requires $500. The account does not have monthly fees or a required amount, but you do not earn interest on the account. Only the savings account and CDs through IncredibleBank earn interest.

MutualOne Bank Review

MutualOne accounts have a low required amount to open the accounts. There are 15 different CDs to choose from. Three CDs require $5,000 to open, but the rest only need $500 to open. Checking accounts only need $100 to open. The MMA requires $500. All MutualOne saving accounts only require $10 to open.

The MutualOne Advantage checking account earns interest. The account only requires $100 to open the account. Any amount over $10 will earn interest. The rates are tiered so to earn the highest rates, you must keep $50,000 in the account. Amounts under that still earn competitive interest rates, just not the highest amount.

MutualOne offers competitive, tiered interest rates on their accounts. The more money you have in the accounts, the higher the interest rates you earn on your money. The MutualOne online savings account earns competitive interest rates and is entirely online. Any amount earns the highest rate.

Business accounts are available through MutualOne Bank. A checking account, savings account, money market account, and CDs are available. There are two different checking accounts. One tailored to commercial businesses. To find out more about business accounts, or apply to open one, you must contact a personal banker.

To earn the highest interest rates available, you must keep a certain amount in the accounts. The advantage checking account required $50,000 be in the account to earn the highest rates. To earn the highest MMA rates, $200,000 must be in the account. The online saving account only requires $100 to earn the highest rates. Lower amounts in these accounts earn interest, just not the highest rate.

Some MutualOne accounts have a monthly maintenance fee. There are ways to waive the fees. Keeping a set amount in the account, or between deposit and loan accounts, will waive the fees. The monthly fee amounts are not listed on the website.

Not all MutualOne Bank accounts are available to open online. The online savings account and CDs can be opened online. Checking, money market, and some savings accounts require a personal banker. Business accounts need a personal banker to open.

To earn the highest interest rates on MMAs, you must have $10,00 in one account and $200,000 in the other MMA. The interest rates for balances under those amounts are low. They are competitive with your typical brick and mortar banks. The more money you invest, the higher the rates. However, the rates for lower amounts are not competitive with other online accounts.
