Synchrony Bank Money Market Account covers both checks and cash access. Synchrony says you can write checks and withdraw money online, by phone or at an ATM, checks are available on request, and the ATM card works at machines with the Plus or Accel logos in the US and overseas. Synchrony does not charge its own ATM fee and refunds other owners' fees up to $5 per statement cycle, or without limit for customers with Diamond status in its Perks rewards program. There is no minimum deposit, no minimum balance and no monthly fee, transfers to and from external banks are free, and mobile check deposits go up to $2,000 per day. We rank it seventh because the rate loads with JavaScript and did not appear in our fetch of the page, so we cannot quote a verified APY. Check the rate on Synchrony's page before you open. Outgoing wires cost $25.
