Marcus High-Yield Savings 0.1% rate bump for 24-months using AARP (profit after rebates)

0.1% rate bump for 24 months for AARP members. Membership is $12 a year and you can cancel after a year, and it should still continue the 0.1% rate bump in year two.
This deal is useful if you bank with Marcus already. I wouldn't open their savings account just to get this 0.1% bump.

Here is the real deal/method to get this bump for free/at a profit:
Multiple rebate sites offer $5-$15 rebate for joining AARP for only a year. $12.60 for the rebate site I used.
BofA credit card should have AARP rebate ($8) for offer CC-holders. I used a BofA one for $8 rebate
Net $20.60 - $12 = $8.60 profit plus 0.1% rate bump for 24 months. AARP membership is free, but I'm not sure what I've used this for in the past.

May not be worth your time unless you have good amount of cash, but this is SD.. free $10+ is worth the 10-minute signup

I'm also seeing an $8 back on a $12+ AARP membership offer on multiple Chase cards.

Apple Card pays more still and treasury bills way better, but this is better than a typical bank

The $12.6 is for First Subscription Purchase, doesn't apply to membership purchase?
