Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about comparing bank rates, deposits, and loans

What is APY and why does it matter for savings accounts and CDs? +
APY stands for Annual Percentage Yield. It reflects the total amount of interest you earn in one year, including the effect of compounding. Unlike a simple interest rate, APY accounts for how frequently interest is added to your balance — daily, monthly, or quarterly. When comparing savings accounts, money market accounts, or CDs, always use the APY to make an apples-to-apples comparison. A higher APY means more money in your pocket at the end of the year.
Are online banks safe? Are deposits FDIC insured? +
Yes. Legitimate online banks are insured by the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) up to $250,000 per depositor, per institution — the same protection offered by traditional brick-and-mortar banks. Credit unions carry equivalent protection through the NCUA (National Credit Union Administration). Before opening an account, you can verify a bank's FDIC status at fdic.gov and a credit union's NCUA status at ncua.gov. MonitorBankRates only displays rates from FDIC- and NCUA-insured institutions.
How often do bank rates change, and how do I find the best rate today? +
Bank rates can change daily, weekly, or monthly depending on the institution and the Federal Reserve's monetary policy. When the Fed raises or lowers the federal funds rate, banks and credit unions typically adjust their deposit and loan rates within days or weeks. MonitorBankRates pulls verified rate data directly from institutions continuously, so the rates displayed on our comparison tables reflect current, real offers — not teaser rates or outdated averages.
What is the difference between a savings account and a money market account? +
Both are deposit accounts that earn interest, but money market accounts (MMAs) typically offer higher rates in exchange for higher minimum balance requirements. MMAs may also come with check-writing privileges or a debit card, while traditional savings accounts usually do not. High-yield savings accounts from online banks can sometimes match or exceed MMA rates with lower minimums. The best choice depends on your balance, how often you need access to funds, and whether check-writing is important to you.
What CD term length offers the best rate? +
Historically, longer CD terms (such as 24-month, 36-month, or 60-month) offered higher rates to compensate for locking up your money longer. However, in a falling-rate environment, shorter terms (3-month, 6-month, or 12-month CDs) can sometimes offer comparable or better rates as institutions compete for deposits. MonitorBankRates tracks rates across all standard CD terms so you can compare yields side by side and choose the term that balances rate with your liquidity needs.
How do I compare mortgage rates effectively? +
When comparing mortgage rates, focus on the APR (Annual Percentage Rate) rather than just the interest rate. The APR includes lender fees, points, and other costs rolled into a single annual figure, making it easier to compare true loan costs across lenders. Also consider the loan term (15-year vs. 30-year), whether the rate is fixed or adjustable, and your down payment amount — all of which affect the rate you qualify for. Getting quotes from at least three lenders on the same day gives the most accurate comparison.
