Synchrony Bank High Yield Savings paid 3.30% APY in late September 2026. No minimum balance, no monthly fee, no conditions. Interest compounds daily.

Rate accuracy note (added September 16, 2026): synchronybank.com could not be reached for live verification this session (repeated timeouts). Every online bank independently verified in this same audit (Ally, Schwab, Fidelity) saw its savings/money-market yield fall from roughly 4.5%+ to the 3.0%-3.6% range between earlier 2026 and September 2026 as the Federal Reserve cut rates. Synchrony’s savings and CD APYs below (~4.00%-4.60%) were not independently reverified this session and are likely stale for the same reason — confirm the current rate directly at synchronybank.com before relying on any figure below.
