The minimum deposit requirement is a bit higher than normal, but well worth it if you have money to set aside and are looking to have it grow just that much faster. Their savings account is also an excellent choice for those looking for a basic yet high-yielding savings account that can be opened online. All around, EverBank is a good choice for individuals looking for an online bank that offers competitive APYs and a wide range of products. It is also especially useful for Florida residents who live in close proximity to one of their eight branches.
