In December 2017, Goldman Sachs Bank USA re-branded to Marcus by Goldman Sachs - Goldman Sachs Bank USA. Marcus is the name the company had been using exclusively for their online lending business. The deposit offerings renamed the same, but Goldman rolled out a new and improved mobile experience with the new brand.
As of 2008, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, a DepositAccounts.com advertiser, is a commercial bank regulated by the Federal Reserve Board and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Thanks to its transition from an investment bank to a commercial bank, Marcus offers deposit products to both individuals and institutions, including interest-bearing online savings accounts and Certificates of Deposit (CDs). Their online savings accounts feature no minimum initial deposits to open. Their CDs feature relatively low initial deposit requirements, as well as customizable monthly interest disbursements. That is, although interest will automatically be added to the principal of the CD, customers can choose to transfer the interest to their Marcus savings account, or to an external bank account. Customers can also withdraw their interest penalty-free at any time. CD terms range from 6 months to 6 years.
All of Marcus’s deposit accounts feature convenient access to online banking, banking by phone, bank transfers, and wire transfers. Although they are an internet-only bank, funds can also be deposited via mailed checks..
Marcus by Goldman Sachs - Goldman Sachs Bank USA was established in 1990 as The Goldman Sachs Trust Company. The bank is owned by the Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., a multinational firm founded in 1869 and headquartered in New York, NY.

Trouble Free Experience
I just redeemed a two year CD and am pleased with my experience.
When I purchased the CD online the application process was flawless. But after reading some of the negative reviews, I was wondering if I would have a problem redeeming the CD when it matured.
I set the option to close the CD and have the funds transferred to my outside bank account.
On the day that the CD matured, the funds were in my account that afternoon.
During my round trip transaction, I did not once have to seek the help of customer service.
Start Being Competitive
When will Marcus move to the head of the class with their CD rates????? I have been an account holder for many years with both CDs and High Yield Savings. I’m starting to move my money to on line banks that are leaders of the pack!!!!
Marcus Similar Experience
I am also a long time customer with Marcus and have had similar issues attempting to transfer funds OUT of Marcus. First an email says that the funds were transferred. Then an alert arrives to call Marcus. This has happened twice. Each time I must spend over 30 minutes on the phone re verifying that I am me, and then listening to an explanation of how the accounts that I verified were not really verified. It is scary that this bank which seemed very customer friendly at first, puts up signficant road blocks when customers try to tranfer money to a different bank. This is NOT a good banking practice. You can report the bank to the Federal Reserve. They have an easy form.
NOT Happy Today
I’ve had an account at Marcus for years but what happened today really infuriated me and I will now close my account. Similar to the previous reviewer, this morning I requested an ACH transfer of 30,000. to my linked account at CIT to take advantage of CIT’s higher rate. I received a call and voice mail this afternoon asking me to call Marcus. While I was on hold I tried to log in to my Marcus account and I was locked out. After being transferred to another department I was told that they could not verify with their system that the account at CIT belonged to me. Why did they approve the linking of the account if they weren’t sure it belonged to me? That does not make sense. I was told they had to do a three way call with CIT to verify I was the account owner but the hold time at CIT was 58 minutes so the rep at Marcus said he could unlock my account if he could unlink and delete my CIT account so I can no longer make transfers to that particular bank. He said the 30,000. will be back in my account tomorrow. When it is back in the Marcus account the whole balance will moved and the account will be closed. Who needs this kind of headache? I’m done with Marcus. I will post an update if the money is not back in my account tomorrow.
