How the Yeild is Built

More yield, less complexity.

You can raise the base APY in two easy ways:

1. Get a 3-month new client boost
Open and fund a Reserve account to earn an additional 0.65% for your first 3 months.

2. Invest for retirement
Open and fund an eligible FutureMoney retirement account to earn an additional 0.25%.

Up to 5.02% as of 8/12/2026. Illustrative for a single New York City filer earning $175,000. Your result depends on your bracket, where you live, and your balances. Tax-equivalent yield is the rate a fully taxable account would need to pay to match Reserve after tax.

What is Reserve?

The High-Yield Account that is Built to Stay Accessible

Reserve is a high-yield cash account from FutureMoney for money you want to keep accessible. Your cash is deposited into treasury and municipal bonds to earn more than a typical savings account and optimize your after-tax return.
Higher yield on idle cash
Money sitting still should still be working. Reserve is built to earn more than cash left in checking or savings.
Optimized for tax
The number that matters is what you keep. Reserve is designed around after-tax return, not just the headline rate.
Accessible when you need it
No lock-ups, no withdrawal penalties, no minimum holding period. Move money out when life asks for it.³

Questions

What is a Reserve account?
Reserve is a higher-yield cash account from FutureMoney, designed to earn more on money you want to keep accessible. Your cash is invested in a fully managed portfolio optimized for after-tax return. Yield and performance can vary, with modest volatility.
What does Reserve invest in? 
Reserve invests in a managed portfolio built for yield on accessible cash, which may include money market instruments and fixed income. FutureMoney builds and manages the portfolio for you. 
Can I lose money in Reserve? 
Reserve carries minimal volatility, which means your balances could decline, as well as grow. While past results are no indication of future performance, a similar product in recent years would have ranged in terms of annual performance from down a little over 2% to up about 5%.
Is Reserve FDIC insured? 
No. Reserve is an investment account, so it is not FDIC insured. Your Reserve investments are eligible for SIPC protection of up to $75 million in the event of a brokerage firm's financial failure. SIPC coverage does not protect against market losses.
Can I automate contributions to Reserve? 
Yes. Set a recurring contribution and Reserve builds automatically. You can change or pause it at any time.
Where can I open a Reserve account? 
Exclusively through FutureMoney. Download the app on the App Store or Google Play, or sign up at app.futuremoney.co.
Is Reserve a savings account? 
No. Reserve is an investment account, not a bank deposit account. It is designed to earn more than a typical savings account, but your balance can move modestly with markets and yield is not guaranteed. It is protected by SIPC coverage rather than FDIC insurance.
What does "optimized for after-tax return" mean? 
It means Reserve is designed around what you keep, not just the headline rate. Interest from a savings account is taxed as ordinary income at the federal, state, and local levels. Reserve's portfolio is built to save you either state and local tax or federal tax on the interest you earn, depending on your home state and income bracket.
How quickly can I withdraw money from Reserve? 
You can request a withdrawal at any time with no penalties or lock-ups. Withdrawals typically take 1-3 business days to settle and arrive in your linked bank account, as securities must first be sold and those trades must settle. Recent contributions can only be withdrawn after 10 business days.
Who is Reserve for?
Reserve is for anyone holding cash they want to keep accessible but don't want sitting idle: an emergency cushion beyond your checking buffer, money earmarked for a near-term goal, or cash you're deciding what to do with. It works alongside FutureMoney's long-term family accounts.
How is Reserve taxed? 
Earnings in Reserve are generally taxable in the year they're received, and you'll get the relevant tax forms from the custodian. The income from Reserve will either be taxable federally, or it will be taxable at the state and local level. Reserve's portfolio is designed with after-tax return in mind, but we don't provide tax advice, consult a tax professional about your specific situation.
How much does FutureMoney cost?
FutureMoney charges no management fees on Reserve accounts, on any of our pricing plans. Depending on your pricing plan, subscription fees or management fees on other account types may apply. See Pricing page for details.

¹ Up to 5.02% as of August 12, 2026, illustrative for a New York City resident filing single with $175,000 of income.

The ongoing rate is 4.37%, or 4.12% without a match. Most clients earn less than the maximum. Your result depends on your tax bracket, where you live, and your balances. Tax-equivalent yield is the rate a fully taxable account would need to pay to match Reserve after tax, using the rates stated. Fund yields fluctuate daily and are not guaranteed. Reserve holds exchange-traded funds, which are not FDIC insured and may lose value. The match and boost are taxable as ordinary income.
