High Yield Savings

Save big. Breathe easy. Put your savings to work with our high yield savings account, featuring our best interest rates with no monthly fees.

1 Maintain the minimum daily balance to maintain the disclosed annual percentage yield (APY). For a high yield savings account, if the balance falls below $50,000, interest rate and APY will adjust to the lower yield. The interest rate and APY are accurate as of the effective date shown above only, and are subject to change without notice, at Gate City Bank's discretion. Fees, including service fees, may apply and could reduce earnings on the account. See our Schedule of Fees for details.

2 Consult with a tax professional to understand what impact CESA may have on your tax situation.
