DollarSavingsDirect Savings Account Paying 3.5% APY

DollarSavingsDirect or DSD is now paying 3.5% for a savings account. This is the highest savings rate we can find. FDIC insured so you are safe up to $250,000.

Since each of EmigrantDirect, DollarSavingsDirect and MySavingsDirect is an online banking division of Emigrant Bank, any deposits you have at Emigrant Bank, EmigrantDirect, DollarSavingsDirect or MySavingsDirect are aggregated and FDIC insured up to $250,000 per depositor. Keep in mind that individual and joint accounts are insured separately, so if you have both types of accounts, your total deposits can be insured up to $500,000; that's up to $250,000 in all of your individual accounts, and up to an additional $250,000 in all of your joint accounts.

That's a free $350 every year for every $10,000 you have sitting there.
