Rate tiers
Every balance band in the bank's feed as corrected (see Data): base is the rate the bank pays.
| Balance | Base |
|---|---|
| $0 – $4,999stepped: paid on the part of the balance in this band | 1.35% |
| $5,000 – $49,999stepped: paid on the part of the balance in this band | 1.85% |
| $50,000+stepped: paid on the part of the balance in this band | 2.50% |
The rates are stepped: each band's rate is paid on the part of the balance that falls in it, so a balance across several bands earns a blend of them.
