Newest EverBank Promotions, Bonuses and Offers: October 2023
The Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America, or TIAA, was founded in 1918 to assist with the financial needs of teachers. Today, TIAA Bank is now EverBank, and it has extended its financial services to anyone.
Like many banks, EverBank offers bonuses and other promotions to attract new customers, but many customers might not know about them. Keep reading to learn about EverBank’s promotions and other perks for October 2023.
Current EverBank Promotions
EverBank doesn’t have any special promotions on tap this month, but it does offer other ways to save money or boost your account balance. Read on for more details.
EverBank Yield Pledge Promise
EverBank offers these high-yield accounts:
- Yield Pledge Checking
- Yield Pledge Money Market
These accounts come with EverBank’s Yield Pledge, which guarantees an annual percentage yield ranking in the top 5% of competitive accounts. The bank promises to review the rates of similar banks each month and adjust its rates to keep them competitive.
No EverBank coupon code is required to enjoy this perk.
Performance Savings
EverBank is offering a APY, one of the highest available. Customers can also enjoy no monthly maintenance fees, a mobile check deposit option, no monthly maintenance fee and $0 to open the account. It is also FDIC-insured up to $250,000.
Fee-Free Accounts
Bank fees for everything from account maintenance to ATM charges can add up in a hurry if you don’t monitor them closely. Some banks give customers ways to avoid these fees. Others, like EverBank, offer and advertise fee-free accounts.
At EverBank, the Yield Pledge interest checking and money market accounts — as well as its basic checking and savings accounts — all have no monthly maintenance fee. Customers are also reimbursed for ATM charges up to $15 per month.
Over time, avoiding these extra charges can lead to big savings that might be worth more than a cash bonus for opening a new account.
Introductory APY
New EverBank customers can take advantage of an introductory APY on select interest-earning accounts. The introductory rate applies to balances up to $250,000 in Yield Pledge Money Market and Yield Pledge Checking accounts.
At the end of the first year, the APY returns to the tiered rate based on the account balance. Accounts with the highest balances enjoy the highest APY.
Former Basic Savings account holders are not eligible for the introductory APY.
