Capital One 360 vs Marcus by Goldman Sachs Savings, Compared
We don't publish either institution's current APY here — see the methodology for why we'd rather show a real national benchmark than an unsourced bank-specific number. What we can compare, sourced from each bank's own disclosures: what it costs to open and keep the account, what it takes to earn the top published rate, and how you actually get cash out. Capital One 360's catch: No ATM card on the savings account, and — as of early 2026 — Capital One is also the institution absorbing former Discover deposit customers post-merger, so its own savings product and the migrated Discover balances are converging into one system. Marcus by Goldman Sachs's catch: Zero card access, period — not "link a checking account," just no path to a physical card. Fine for a pure savings parking spot, a real friction point if you need occasional cash.

On the rate itself
We don't publish Capital One 360's or Marcus by Goldman Sachs's current APY — both change frequently and we don't yet have a sourced, dated feed for named-institution rates. What we do publish is the real, dated FDIC national-average benchmark, so you have a floor to check either bank's advertised rate against. See the high-yield savings guide for that benchmark and how to read an APY.
