Marcus Bank FAQs

 

Our Take

Marcus is an excellent online-only bank with competitive APYs across all of its products. They do not charge any monthly fees for any account, nor do they have any minimum deposit requirements, except for the CDs, which only require a minimum of $500 to open. The one downside is that accounts can only be funded via bank transfers from other banks. All in all, it is an excellent online-only bank for individuals who don't mind using it in conjunction with accounts at a different bank they may bank with.
