Our Take
Bread pays top-of-market with no activity hurdles, which keeps it permanently on rate leaderboards. The catch is operational, not financial: users consistently report slow transfers and rigid limits, so it suits patient money rather than active cash. Park a lump sum, leave it alone, and Bread is one of the easiest 4% yields in the country.
Best for: Parked savings that won't need fast or frequent withdrawals
