CIT Bank: Bank Overview 2024
CIT Bank has three savings accounts: Platinum Savings, Savings Connect and Savings Builder. If you’re confident that you’ll always have at least $5,000 in your account, Platinum Savings is the best choice, because of its 5.00% APY. However, if your balance drops below that threshold, you’ll only earn 0.25% APY.
The Savings Connect account may be a better choice, as you earn 4.65% APY regardless of your balance. The Savings Builder, which pays a maximum of 1.00% APY, is not worth looking at.
