Bankrate scores are objectively determined by our editorial team. Our scoring formula weighs several factors consumers should consider when choosing financial products and services.

Overview

CIT Bank is a great choice for customers looking for savings accounts and certificates of deposit (CDs) that pay above-average yields as well as an interest-bearing checking account at an online bank. But you must be comfortable solely banking online to earn those yields.

ATM Fee Refunds
Top Savings Rate

Overall

CIT Bank is an online institution that offers competitive annual percentage yields (APYs) on its Savings Connect savings account and some of its certificate of deposit accounts (CDs). It also offers an interest-earning checking account, a money market account and various types of CDs.

While interest rates are competitive for some CDs, other CDs and the money market accounts have a less competitive rate. But customers won’t have to worry about high fees eating into their deposits, since the bank waives most fees, including monthly service fees, overdraft fees and incoming wire transfer fees.

Pros

CIT offers competitive yields on its savings and some of its CD accounts.
There are no monthly fees for any accounts.
The checking account earns interest.
Customers get up to $30 in ATM surcharges reimbursed per month.

Cons

Some of the APYs for CDs fall below the national average for their respective terms.
The bank doesn’t have physical branch locations.

CIT Bank savings overview

CIT Bank’s Savings Connect account is the bank’s most accessible savings account, with only a $100 minimum opening deposit and no monthly fee. The account also earns a competitive APY.

The highest-earning CIT savings account is its Platinum Savings account. While there’s only a $100 minimum opening deposit, the top-notch yield only applies to balances of $5,000 or more. Otherwise, you’ll earn a much lower yield. There are no monthly fees for this account.

CIT Bank also offers its Savings Builder account. This account has a much lower APY but still yields more than the national average for savings accounts. Savings Builder is a little more complex, since you need to have at least a $25,000 monthly balance or recurring deposits of $100 or more every month to earn this APY. The account doesn’t have a monthly service fee.

Pros

The Platinum Savings and Savings Connect accounts offer a top-tier yield.
The Savings Builder can motivate you to save since you need to deposit at least $100 each month in order to get the top APY.
There are no monthly fees for any of the savings accounts.

Cons

Compared with other savings accounts at online banks, the Savings Builder doesn’t offer a competitive APY.
While the minimum opening deposit of $100 for the Savings Connect account is low, some accounts have lower or no minimum requirements.

Rate history for CIT Bank's Savings account

The CIT Bank savings account yield is 5% APY. This yield has increased by 0.05% over the past year. The rate is significantly higher than the national average yield of 0.56% APY, according to Bankrate’s latest weekly survey of institutions.

CIT Bank CD overview

New CIT Bank customers have access to standard CDs, jumbo CDs and a no-penalty CD. There are eight standard CD terms available, and all standard CDs require minimum opening deposits of $1,000.

As of the time of our review, CD terms of six months, 13 months and 18 months offer solid yields, but higher APYs can be found elsewhere. Other terms have much lower yields that fall below the national average.

The jumbo CD rates are also below the national average. The bank’s 11-month no-penalty CD has a solid rate and requires $1,000 to open.

Pros

The bank offers a wide variety of terms.
Competitive yields are offered on some of the terms.
The no-penalty CD offers a solid yield.

Cons

Other online banks pay higher yields for terms of one year or longer.
CDs with lower minimum balance requirements can be found.

CIT Bank money market overview

The yield on the bank’s money market account is much higher than the national average yield. But there are higher-yielding options available. CIT Bank’s Savings Connect account was earning a much higher yield than CIT Bank’s money market account during Bankrate’s review.

The account doesn’t have a monthly fee, the top APY is earned on any balance and it only requires $100 to open.

Though the account is digital, customers can add funds to it through mail-in check, in addition to standard digital payment methods like electronic transfers. There’s no ATM or debit card available for withdrawals, however, nor can you write checks against the account.

Pros

The APY is competitive, compared with the national average yield.
There is no monthly maintenance fee.
You only need $100 to open this account.

Cons

Money market accounts that earn higher APYs are available.
The account doesn’t come with an ATM or debit card or check-writing privileges.

CIT Bank checking overview

CIT Bank offers an interest-bearing checking account. As long as you maintain a minimum balance of $100, you will earn interest. But you need to keep a minimum balance of $25,000 to earn the highest APY.

There is no fee charged by CIT Bank to use out-of-network ATMs. And CIT Bank reimburses up to a generous $30 each month when you incur a surcharge at another bank’s ATM. International purchases or international ATM withdrawals are subject to a 1 percent fee.

No fees are charged for monthly service, overdrafts, incoming wire transfers and online transfers, making this account much more consumer-friendly than checking accounts offered at many big banks. Outgoing wire transfers are also free for account holders with a minimum balance of $25,000; otherwise, it’s $10 per domestic outgoing transfer.

Pros

It offers a decent APY for a checking account.
There are no monthly fees, overdraft fees or incoming wire transfer fees.
CIT Bank reimburses $30 worth of out-of-network ATM fees and doesn’t charge you a fee to use out-of-network ATMs.

Cons

The minimum deposit to open the account is $100; some online banks have no minimum deposit requirement to open an account.
You need at least $25,000 to earn the highest APY.

Customer experience

Customer support. CIT has no branches, but customers can reach a customer service representative by phone 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern time weekdays and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern. There’s also an automated telephone service that’s available 24/7.

Low satisfaction. CIT Bank ranked below average in overall satisfaction among online banks that offer savings accounts, according to J.D. Power’s 2024 Direct Banking Satisfaction Study.

CIT Bank vs. Citizens Bank

While CIT Bank is online-only, Citizens Bank might be a good fit for someone living in the Eastern U.S. who wants access to branches and a fee-free ATM network. However, one of the benefits of banking with an online bank like CIT Bank is that you can get much higher yields. CIT Bank offers a very competitive yield on its Savings Connect account and even offers a decent yield on its checking account; savers will not get the same boost at Citizens Bank.

Another factor to consider is fees. CIT Bank charges few fees. Meanwhile, Citizens Bank’s checking account comes with a lofty overdraft fee and out-of-network ATM fee — neither of which are charged at all by CIT Bank.
