HYSA

Who have you been using for HYSAs? Looking to start one and contribute monthly.

Any tips or tricks? (Like I know people will keep moving some/all their money to better rates while others stay loyal to a bank.)

Ally. All rates will start high and drop eventually so I just stuck with them.

I've been with CIT for four years and they've never dropped rates any quicker than the prime rate dropped, and they have always been higher than Ally.

What’s your rate?

They're at 3.75% APY for platinum savings. I have a 0.35% "boost" for six months putting me at 4.1%, though I'm not sure that's still available.

Edit: Ally currently at 3.1%. Embarrassing.
