  • What is a High Yield Money Market Account?
    A High Yield Money Market Account is a savings account that offers a higher-than-average rate of return on your money, three easy ways to access your money – free checks, ATM card and online transfers to and from your existing external bank accounts* – and the security of FDIC insurance.
  • Great rates
    We have a history of great rates. In fact, our rates have been among the best in the nation for the past 10 years.
  • Superior access to your money
    Secure and easy access to your money with free checks, an ATM card and easy online transfers. Compare us against some of our competitors in the box above.
  • No monthly fees and no minimum balance
    Really. Service and maintenance fees do not apply to this account. You need $1 to open an account, but you'll earn interest on any amount you have in your account.
  • FDIC insured to at least $250,000 per depositor
    You know your money is safe with us. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) now provides insurance on deposits in Capital One Bank (USA), N.A. and Capital One, N.A., to at least $250,000 per depositor, per institution. This increase to $250,000 has been extended through December 31, 2013.

    Individual and joint accounts are insured separately. For example: if you have both an individual account and a joint account with your spouse in each of our institutions, total deposits for you as a couple can be insured up to $1.5 million (up to $250,000 in each of the individual accounts, and up to an additional $250,000 per spouse in each of the joint accounts).
