A money market account allows checking account type transactions such as use of debit cards and ATM withdrawals. A money market account typically offers a higher interest rate than a traditional savings account because they generally require a higher minimum balance than a traditional savings account.

Additional Note:
Some balances may be too low to be credited for interest earned if the interest rate is also low. We will credit interest earned equal to or greater than $0.01 during a statement cycle at the end of a cycle. For example, with a rate of 0.25%, a $40 daily balance would earn less than a $0.01 by the end of the statement cycle, resulting in no interest credited to the account.
