SoFi revised its SoFi Plus savings account interest structure, effective August 3, 2026. Previously, the terms listed a flat 3.10% APY rate applying to portions of savings balances that did not earn the higher 4.50% APY. The updated language now specifies that SoFi Plus members receive their highest APY rate on up to $20,000 in tiered-rate Savings account balances (including Vault-held amounts), with detailed mechanics explaining how incremental interest is calculated and credited. The practical effect is that eligible members may earn a higher blended interest rate across their first $20,000 in savings compared to the prior rate structure.

What this means for you

The updated terms clarify how SoFi Plus members' interest earnings are calculated and credited. Members' highest APY rate now explicitly applies to up to $20,000 in tiered-rate Savings account balances, including amounts held in Vaults. The change defines 'incremental interest' as the earnings difference between the highest APY and the rate on other balances, and states that this incremental interest is always credited to the Savings account even if the underlying balance is held in a Vault. You can review the SoFi Bank Rate Sheet to see the current rates applicable to your accounts.

What you can do

Review your SoFi Bank Rate Sheet to confirm current rates on your accounts

If you hold balances in multiple Vaults, verify that your highest APY is being applied to up to $20,000 across all eligible balances
