Features

  • ▸Mobile-only savings app from First National Bank of Omaha, launched 2021
  • ▸Paid up to 5.25% APY at its peak — a genuine rate leader
  • ▸Jars (sub-account goals), round-ups, and automatic savings tools
  • ▸FNBO discontinued Milli effective November 15, 2024 with about two months' notice
  • ▸Closing balances plus accrued interest were mailed to customers as checks
  • ▸FNBO's own direct savings products remain available but at far lower rates

Pros

  • +Historically one of the best rates ever offered by a traditional bank's digital arm
  • +Customers were made whole at shutdown with balances plus interest

Cons

  • −Shut down entirely — you cannot open or hold a Milli account
  • −Abrupt wind-down stranded customers mid-rate-cycle and forced re-shopping
  • −A cautionary tale about building a savings strategy on subsidized fintech side projects

Our Take

Milli is listed here as a tombstone: FNBO's experiment paid a market-leading 5.25% right up until the bank pulled the plug in November 2024. Nobody lost a dollar, but everyone lost the rate. The lesson for rate-chasers is to favor products tied to a bank's core funding strategy — Openbank, EverBank, Pibank — over side-project apps a parent bank can discontinue by memo.

Best for: No one — discontinued; see Pibank or EverBank for current rate leaders
