Radius Bank does this thing where they're... better than other banks. The Radius Hybrid account lets you earn 0.85% APY on balances of $2,500 or more. That's a cool 20x more on your tax return than the national average of 0.04%. That interest rate never expires, and there's no balance cap for how much you can earn.

The Radius Hybrid Checking account is completely free. There are no monthly fees, and Radius reimburses you for all ATM charges worldwide. They even offer free budgeting tools on their mobile banking app.

Tax season is a headache. But it's also a good time to make sure you're getting all that you can out of your finances, including your checking account. Set up an account and see how much more money your money could be earning. It only takes five minutes.
