What is a money market account?

A money market account is a type of deposit account that provides benefits found in both traditional savings and checking accounts. Money market accounts typically earn a higher interest rate than savings accounts and allow transactions similar to a checking account. Money market account balances are covered by FDIC insurance up to $250,000, and covered in excess by the DIF.

What’s the difference between a money market account vs savings?

The primary difference between a money market account and a traditional savings account is how you are able to access your money. A money market account allows checking account type transactions such as use of debit cards and ATM withdrawals. Another key difference is that a money market account typically offers a higher interest rate than a traditional savings account because they generally require a higher minimum balance than a traditional savings account.

Is there a penalty for withdrawing money from a money market account?

There is no penalty on withdrawing money from a money market account. Money market accounts allow you to make withdrawals and transfers as often as you need.
