Best high-yield savings interest rates today, June 23, 2025 (Earn up to 4.31% APY)

Today's savings account rates still hover well above the national average. The Federal Reserve cut the federal funds rate three times in 2024, which means deposit account rates are also on the decline. It's more important than ever to ensure you're earning the highest rate possible on your savings, and a high-yield savings account could be the solution.
These accounts pay more interest than the typical savings account — as much as 4% APY and higher in some cases. Not sure where to find the best savings interest rates today? Read on to find out which banks have the best offers.
In general, high-yield savings accounts offer better interest rates than traditional savings accounts. Still, rates vary widely across financial institutions. That's why it's important to shop around and compare rates before opening an account.
As of June 23, 2025, the highest savings account rate available from our partners is 4.31% APY. This rate is offered by VIO Bank and there is no minimum opening deposit required.
As you'll see, the majority of top savings rates come from online banks. These institutions have much lower overhead costs than traditional banks, so they can pass those savings on to customers in the form of higher rates and lower fees.
Here is a look at some of the best savings rates available today from our verified partners:

A high-yield savings account can be a good fit if you're looking for a secure place to store your money and earn a competitive interest rate while maintaining liquidity. Traditional savings accounts and certificates of deposit (CDs) have some of the highest interest rates we've seen in more than a decade, thanks to recent interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve. Even so, the national average for these rates is fairly low compared to the top offers available.
For example, the average savings account rate is just 0.38%, while 1-year CDs pay 1.62%, on average, according to the FDIC. The Fed is also expected to lower its target rate again in 2025, which means now might be the last chance for savers to take advantage of today's high rates.
Taking the time to compare accounts and rates from various financial institutions will help you secure the best deal available. However, interest rates aren't the only factor to consider when choosing a savings account.
For example, some banks may require that you maintain a minimum balance to earn the highest advertised rate and avoid monthly fees. Other factors to evaluate include customer service options and hours, ATM and branch access, digital banking tools, and the overall financial stability of the institution. Additionally, before opening a savings account, be sure that it's insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) — or the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) if it's held by a credit union — so your money is protected in case the institution fails.

Trump orders a 35% tariff for goods from Canada, citing a lack of cooperation on illicit drugs

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. President Donald Trump has raised the tariff rate on U.S. imports from Canada to 35% from 25%, effective Friday. The announcement from the White House late Thursday said Canada had failed to 'do more to arrest, seize, traffickers, criminals at large, and illicit drugs.' Trump earlier had threatened to impose the higher tariff on Canada if no deal was reached by Friday, his deadline for reaching trade agreements with dozens of countries. Canada was not included in Trump's updated list of tariff rates on other countries announced late Thursday. Those import duties are due to take effect on Aug. 7. Prime Minister Mark Carney had tempered expectations, saying Ottawa will only agree to a deal 'if there's one on the table that is in the best interests of Canadians.' In a subsequent statement, released just after midnight, he said he was disappointed by the actions and that 'Canada accounts for only 1% of U.S. fentanyl imports and has been working intensively to further reduce these volumes.' He added that some industries — including lumber, steel, aluminum and automobiles — will be harder hit, but that the government will try to minimize the impact and protect Canadian jobs.

Exclusive-Three Intel senior executives to retire amid manufacturing shake up

By Max A. Cherney SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) -Three senior executives in Intel's manufacturing operations are set to retire, Intel told Reuters on Thursday, as new CEO Lip-Bu Tan implements sweeping change to resuscitate the struggling U.S. chipmaker. Intel told staff on Tuesday that corporate vice presidents in the technology development group, Kaizad Mistry and Ryan Russell, would retire, as would Gary Patton, corporate vice president at its Design Technology Platform organization and a former IBM executive. Intel also discussed changes to the technology development group, which is responsible for creating manufacturing processes, said two people briefed on the matter. The chipmaker plans to reduce its manufacturing capacity planning team and cut a portion of its engineering team, the people said. Intel declined to comment on the changes. Manufacturing operations are led by former Micron Technology executive Naga Chandrasekaran, who was hired about a year ago by then-CEO Pat Gelsinger. Chandrasekaran's responsibility expanded in March as he took over technology development and manufacturing. He has since reorganized staff under him, including layoffs as part of global cutbacks. When Intel announced its quarterly financial results last week, CEO Tan, who assumed the role in March, set a goal of slashing the chipmaker's workforce to 75,000 people by year-end, a reduction of around 22%. Intel also vowed to take a more disciplined approach to manufacturing investment. Intel said its next-generation 14A manufacturing process depends on securing a new, significant customer, otherwise it could suspend or terminate development. "We're developing Intel 14A ... from the ground up in close partnership with large external customers," Tan said in a memo released with the financial results. "Going forward, our investment in Intel 14A will be based on confirmed customer commitments." Tan also told investors that Intel's 18A process could only generate a reasonable return if it is used for in-house products. Tan has debated whether to stop offering 18A technology to external customers to focus on 14A, Reuters reported in July. Intel plans to ramp to high-volume manufacturing its Panther Lake PC chips this year using its 18A manufacturing process.
