Their high yield cash account is a great online account. No gimmicks. I just wish could do a joint account that my spouse could see (which is supposedly coming soon).
I've been using Wealthfront for almost 3 years due to having the best APY (4.0% + 0.5% more for 3 months = 4.5% APY) among all online banks. If you also want 0.5% additional APY boost, please use the below link:

I spent months researching different options to move my money from Ally bank. It was ok but their 4% APY has been much lower than others. I wanted a higher APY and a TRUSTWORTHY institution.
I settled with Wealthfront because it has good reviews and their current APY is 4.5% plus you can use an invite code to get the addtional 0.5% increase, totaling 5% APY. I didnt have any friends banking with them so I just copied the code from this thread above and it worked. :)
The transfer was super easy. Took 2 days and they didn't put my 100K on hold at all! If I knew it was going to be that easy, I would have done it months ago! Definitely recommend.
Feel free to use my invite code to get your extra 0.5%

I opened in August with 5%. I just noticed they changed mine to 4.5%. Has anyone else?
