Savings Interest Calculator

APR is the simple annual interest rate. APY (Annual Percentage Yield) includes the effect of compounding. APY is always equal to or higher than APR and represents your true annual return.

Most savings accounts compound daily. Some compound monthly or quarterly. Daily compounding earns slightly more than monthly or quarterly compounding at the same APY.

As of 2024, high-yield savings accounts offer 4-5% APY. Traditional bank savings accounts may offer 0.01-0.5%. Online banks typically offer the highest rates.
