CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--M1, the finance app offering automated investing, borrowing, and banking products, today announced the newest addition to its suite of banking products, the M1 High-Yield Savings Account with 4.50% APY1.
M1 High-Yield Savings Account, available in early 2023, will be an FDIC-insured savings account2. The base rate for the savings account will be 0.50% APY, and M1 clients with an active M1 Plus membership will earn 4.50% APY. There will be no minimum balance requirements or maximum balance caps for the M1 High-Yield Savings Account.

“At M1, we’ve built a suite of products that help people grow their assets, automate their finances, and manage their wealth. The M1 High-Yield Savings Account is the latest addition to our automated, integrated and expanding offering,” said Brian Barnes, M1 CEO and Founder. “Our mission is to support long-term investors, savers, and those who consistently practice smart financial habits. Ensuring that your uninvested cash is growing in a high-yield savings account is a critical part of any long-term financial plan, and we’re proud to put a stake in the ground today and ensure that M1 Plus members will have one of the best rates in the market in 2023.”
M1 High-Yield Savings Account is a direct result of the first partnership between M1 and B2 Bank National Association, Member FDIC, the bank formerly known as First National Bank of Buhl that Brian Barnes personally purchased in July 2021.
