Brighter Experiences Await Smile knowing you made a safe and flexible savings choice!
I love the online access and use it and the app often.
Jack, Customer for 16 Years
The tellers are all so friendly and the service is very personal. They suggested I think about a Money Market Account and were clear in their explanation. They were not pushy, but answered my questions, and then let me mull it over and take my time. I am so glad they did, and opening the money market account was very simple. But, I think the main thing is I feel they know me as a person and help me when I get confused.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a Money Market Account and a CD?

A Money Market Account helps you earn competitive interest on funds beyond your everyday spending needs, while keeping access available for occasional withdrawals.

A Certificate of Deposit (CD) is designed for funds you can set aside for a fixed period of time in exchange for a guaranteed rate.

If you’re building reserves and want access if needed, a Money Market may fit. If you’re saving toward a goal with a set timeline, a CD may help you lock in earnings.

What's the difference between a FlexSaver and a Money Market Account?

Our FlexSaver and Money Market Accounts are both designed to help you grow your savings. The right choice depends on how you plan to use your funds.

The FlexSaver is a traditional savings account without check-writing or debit card access, making it well-suited for funds you want to set aside and leave untouched.

A Money Market Account typically requires a higher minimum balance and may offer a higher interest rate. It is designed for larger balances beyond your everyday spending, with limited transaction access available when needed.

What are the requirements for opening a Money Market Account?

To open an account, you'll need to be 18 years old and provide: 

  • Your personal and contact information. 

  • Your U.S. address. 

  • Your social security number or employer identification number. 

  • A Money Market also requires a minimum opening balance of $2,500. 

How does a Money Market work?

Your balance earns competitive interest while remaining available for periodic access. Money Market Accounts are designed for savings beyond everyday spending, with check-writing and debit card features available for limited transaction needs.

Is my money safe in a Money Market?

Yes! Money Market Accounts are insured by the FDIC up to the maximum allowed by law, just like regular savings accounts.

How often is interest paid on a Money Market Account?

On Midland's Money Market Accounts, interest is compounded once a month, helping your savings grow steadily over time.

Why should I choose a Money Market Account?

A Money Market Account is a smart choice if you want to earn competitive interest on balances beyond your everyday spending while keeping access available when needed.

Can I set up direct deposit into my Money Market Account?

Yes. Direct deposit can be used to transfer funds into your Money Market Account to help grow your savings. For managing daily expenses and recurring payments, a checking account is typically recommended.
