My eBanc Review

Every My eBanc account offers competitive interest rates. The rates are much higher than typical brick and mortar bank rates. The accounts are personal deposit checking and money market account and CDs. My eBanc offers regular CDs, jumbo, and one fixed rate CD.

The account interest rates at My eBanc are not tiered. There is not a required balance to earn the most competitive interest rate. Any amount in the account earns the competitive interest rate. However, the money market and checking account do have a monthly fee if the balance falls under $5,000.

My eBanc accounts are entirely online. Everything for your account is done through the website or mobile app. Make deposits through electronic transfers or by mailing in a check. There is only one branch location in Florida.

The My eBanc money market accounts and checking accounts allow you to write checks and have a debit card. The money market account only allows for six withdrawals each month. The checking account has unlimited check writing options with no charge. Your first 50 checks are free.

The minimum deposit required to open My eBanc accounts is high. The checking, money market, and regular CDs all require $5,000 to open. The jumbo CDs require $100,000. The Flex Time Deposit CD requires $10,000 to open.

The money market and checking account have a monthly fee. The fee for both accounts is $15 monthly. Waive both of those fees if you keep an average daily balance of more than $5,000. You still earn interest on amounts under $5,000, but your earnings will be cut into by the fee.

There are limited accounts offered through My eBanc. Only personal deposit accounts are available. My eBanc offers one checking account and one money market account. There are five different term lengths of CDs. Those same terms are available in jumbo CDs. One fixed rate CD is offered.

My eBanc does not offer any business accounts. Only personal deposit accounts are available. Personal deposit checking and money market accounts and some CDs are offered.
