• Use Rakuten to sign up for Raisin. $100 bonus

• During the Raisin signup, use a referral code on the signup page. Up to $200 bonus, depending on the amount deposited. If trying to stack SkyOne, use that credit union for your savings deposit.

Our Verdict

Raisin used to be called SaveBetter and we have covered it twice before (when there was a $50 bonus and why we don’t list SaveBetter rates). Rates are competitive with the best high yield savings accounts, although slightly worse than the top rates, although the bonus isn’t significant compared to the deposit required (e.g the $200 bonus works out to be an extra 0.8% APY annualized over that 90 day period). Think the previous Rakuten offer for $50 for $100 deposit was better. Do not share your referrals in the comments below. Use this linked post instead.
