Interest Rates

Interest is compounded daily and paid monthly.

*This is a variable-rate account, and the rate may change at any time except during the introductory period. All interest rates by balance tiers and Annual Percentage Yields (APY) stated are accurate as of today's date. The minimum balance to earn the advertised Annual Percentage Yield is $1.00. Fees could reduce earnings on the account. Offer not available for non-personal accounts. Rates differ by region.

Introductory Interest Rate: The Introductory Interest Rate will apply during the first 6 months after the account is opened.

Regular Interest Rate: This standard rate will apply if you do not qualify for introductory or premium rates.

Premium Interest Rate: On the last day of each monthly interest payment cycle, we will determine whether your account will receive the Regular Interest Rate or the Premium Interest Rate. To qualify to earn the Premium Interest Rate, you must have an eligible M&T Checking account and make 3 or more qualifying customer-initiated checking transactions during that account’s most recently completed monthly service charge cycle.

On the day your MyChoice Money Market is opened and on the last day of each monthly interest payment cycle, we will determine whether your account will receive the Regular Interest Rate or the Premium Interest Rate (both of which may change daily) during the upcoming monthly interest payment cycle. To qualify for the Premium Interest Rate, you must (1) have a MyChoice Premium Checking or Power Checking and (2) have made three or more qualifying customer-initiated transactions in that checking account during that account's most recently completed monthly service charge cycle. Qualifying customer-initiated transactions include deposits, withdrawals, M&T Online and Mobile Bill Pay transactions, automatic payments, debit card purchases and payments and direct deposits. Transfers and payments to other accounts at M&T Bank (including loans and lines of credit) are excluded. Reversals of transactions will be netted against the qualifying transactions. Transactions cannot be aggregated across multiple checking accounts for purposes of meeting this requirement. (Note: If your MyChoice Premium Checking has been open for less than one monthly service charge cycle on any day we determine the applicable interest rate, your MyChoice Money Market Account will receive the Premium Interest Rate during the upcoming monthly interest payment cycle.)
