They are counting on interest rates dropping and you missing out on your no penalty CDs higher rate.

Do the math before jumping on this

In comparison to a recent post on Charles Schwab of 5.x% 3 months CD; with the same amount of $100k, comes out to be $1,325 for the same amount time.

Short-term, within 3 months, small variation gain with CD, but much higher gain with CD if more than 3 months to keep the money parked.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I'm not including compounding interest here, but I think the conclusions are going to be more-or-less the same for everyone:
If you deposit $100,000, you'll earn roughly $838 from your money in 90 days from the interest. The $1000 bonus would bring that up to $1838. Earning $1838 on $100,000 in 90 days is an annualized rate of return (again, no compounding here) of ~7.5% for those 90 days.

That's a pretty good deal, but there's two things to remember. First is that you will pay tax on all of the $1838 as though it were ordinary income. Sometimes people mistakenly believe that these sign up bonuses aren't taxable, but they definitely will appear on a 1099-INT that will be sent to you and to the IRS. Second, you really need to move your money after 90 days for this to make sense. That's a little bit of a hassle and so I think this deal makes a lot less sense at $10k than at $100k.

Important question - it says they'll deposit the money 60 days after you meet the requirements, does this mean you actually need to keep the money there for 150 days? Or would one need to deposit $100k, keep it there for 90 days, then clean out the account and wait 60 days for the interest?

I don't think the code is valid until tomorrow. Per terms "Open a 360 Performance Savings account between 12:00 a.m. ET on March 22, 2023, and 11:59 p.m. ET on May 10, 2023"

I just finished the FALL22 deal of the same details. Wondering now what to do with the 100k+ that I have sitting in Capital One. Was tempted to move it across to my Sofi checking which is getting 4% APY, or maybe another deal like this that gives ~$1,000 bonus.

Any suggestions?

This is essentially 4.40% APY unless you plan to exit after 90 days. There are better return elsewhere. I would lock 5% CD any day over this if I don't need to use the money asap.

So correct me if wrong but I had a similar Citibank promo with bonus after 90 days. BUT it didn't accrue any interest during those first three months. If it is the same with this Cap-1 deal keep that in mind. 100,000k with the normal 3.4% account yield would generate roughly $1,150 in interest in three months. If the $1,000 promo stacks with $1,150 accrued interest that that is pretty slick. If not, you are losing money.

Not a good deal, if you annualize this it's about 4-4.5% remember it takes time for ACH transfers and you probably won't withdraw the money to be safe until you get your bonus. Can get at least that much in plenty of banks without the hassle

Terms seem to indicate it is ok to remove funds after you meet criteria, just don't close or default account. It does say the 90 days timer doesn't start until 15 days after an initial funding period. So money could be tied up for potentially 105 days (or max 165 days if needing to keep in account until bonus), bringing yield down slightly.

Ally's no penalty CD at 4.75% is better over a 1 year span.

Heh, I've gotten $600 bonus for what amounted to about $1000 in transfers from Citizens. This is ridiculous.

I want to put some of my dads money in a savings with higher interest. Making nothing by having it in regular bank.

Should i do capital one or amex?
