What is a Money Market Account?

A Money Market Account (MMA) is similar to a savings account, but it offers several additional features. Compared to personal savings accounts, an MMA will typically earn a higher interest rate. While your account grows, you'll still have access to your funds. You can write checks and use your debit card just like you would with a checking account.

Safety

Once you deposit funds into a money market account, it will be protected up to the federal limit. There's less risk involved with growing your funds this way because you'll still receive the maximum amount insured by the FDIC even if the institution fails.

What's the Difference Between a FlexSaver and a Money Market Account?

Our FlexSaver and Money Market Accounts both offer several advantages. The right one for you depends on how you plan to use your funds and what your spending and savings goals are.

The FlexSaver is a traditional savings account, so you won’t have the ability to write checks or have access to a debit card. This will make you less likely to spend your money, but you won't earn as much interest.

Meanwhile, a Money Market Account will require a higher minimum balance — but you'll be earning a higher interest rate on it, helping you reach your financial goals. It also offers quick, easy access to your funds with a debit card and checks.
