APY is now 3.6%. I started earning interest four days BEFORE my intial desposit was posted. The site is functional but does not have the glitz that other online sites have. It could look better as they (the bank) develops their new online division.

Venture Bank Direct is still at 3.8% APY. It’s quick and easy to sign up and start earning interest. Can have up to 3 linked accounts. This has been a great online savings account for me.

For high interest savings, Venture Bank Direct has been great. It was easy to get up and running, and I started earning interest in 1 day. Gotta love that 3.8% APY. Looking forward to exploring the other online banking services they offer.

Looks like they raised their rate to 3.8% yesterday, that’s one of the highest rates without a minimum balance.

Thanks for the review. I just talked to a representative at Venture Bank. I’d like to add that there is a limit of 3 withdrawals a month and a maximum of $10K withdrawal a day.
