About SideBySide Savings
We believe everyone deserves to earn more on their savings. Our mission is to cut through the noise and show you exactly which high-yield savings accounts are worth your money.
Our Story
SideBySide Savings was born from frustration. While researching savings accounts, we found the same problem everywhere: comparison sites that bury the important details, hide the catches, and rank banks based on who pays them the most—not what's best for you.
We built something different. A comparison tool that puts the facts first: real APYs, actual minimums, genuine fee structures, and honest assessments of the pros and cons. No fluff. No hidden agendas.
What Makes Us Different
Verified Rates
We manually verify every APY directly from bank websites. No outdated data or guesswork.
Full Transparency
We disclose when we earn commissions. Our rankings are based on value, not payouts.
The Catches Exposed
We highlight the fine print others hide: tiered rates, direct deposit requirements, and balance caps.
Real Recommendations
We recommend accounts we'd actually use. Even if a bank doesn't pay us, we'll still feature them if they're great.
How We Make Money
Transparency matters. Here's exactly how we sustain this site:
Some banks and financial institutions pay us a commission when you open an account through our links. This never costs you extra—it's paid by the bank as a customer acquisition cost. However, affiliate relationships never influence our rankings. We feature and recommend banks based on their merit, not their payout.
In fact, you'll notice we recommend several banks (like Marcus and Pibank) that don't have affiliate programs at all. If a product is good, it makes our list. Period.
