Pros and cons
Pros
- No monthly fee of $0 and a minimum deposit of $0
- A variable rate of 3.35% paid on the savings section
- Free ATM use of $0 and a no credit check route to open
- On-demand access with no limits on withdrawals per month
Cons
- Linked-account instant transfers carry a percentage fee with a minimum amount charged per transfer.
- Support runs on phone, chat and help centre, so there is no branch network to walk into.
- The savings rate is variable, so the return of 3.35% can move up or down.
Who it suits
- A teen opening a first account, since the audience is listed as teen and there is a no credit check route to open
- Students who want interest without a term, since the account is easy access and pays 3.35%
- Anyone sending money at short notice, with delivery at Instant
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who needs a branch, since support runs on phone, chat and help centre with no in person counter.
- Readers who prefer a stated monthly charge, since Pixpay FR charges a monthly fee of €3.99.
- Anyone saving for a fixed term, since the account is easy access with a variable rate.
Fees and currency costs
Keeping the account open costs a monthly fee of $0, and a linked account instant transfer is charged a percentage of the amount moved, with a minimum amount per transfer. That fee is the recurring cost to watch, because it applies to every transfer pulled from a linked account rather than once a month.
Safety of your money
Deposits are covered by the FDIC scheme at FDIC up to USD 250,000, so money held on deposit is protected if the provider fails. The provider is also listed in the 2460509 register, the US system for licensing firms that hold customer money. That pairing is the main reassurance for a saver using an on demand account.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a monthly fee to keep a ONE App account?+
There is no monthly fee of $0, and the minimum deposit is $0, so an account can be opened and kept at no cost. The account kind is easy access, so money stays available rather than being tied to a term.
What does an instant transfer cost?+
A linked account instant transfer is charged a percentage of the amount moved, with a minimum amount per transfer. That fee is the cost to watch when money moves between linked accounts, so larger amounts carry a proportionate charge.
Is my money protected if the provider fails?+
Deposits are covered by the FDIC scheme at FDIC up to USD 250,000, which protects the balance held on deposit if the provider fails. The provider also appears in the 2460509 register of US licensed firms.
Does the account pay interest?+
Yes. The savings section pays a variable headline rate of 3.35%. Because the rate is variable it can move, so the return on a savings balance is not fixed for the life of the account.
Can I get cash out whenever I want?+
The account is on demand, with no limits on withdrawals per month, and ATM withdrawals are covered under the free ATM allowance of $0. Payouts can go to bank, card and wallet.
Who is the account built for?+
The listed audience is teen, and the provider highlights a no credit check route to opening. With a monthly fee of $0 and a variable rate of 3.35% on the savings section, it also suits anyone starting a first account.
What support can I get?+
Support runs on phone, chat and help centre, so a phone line, live chat and a help centre are the routes offered. The account itself is app based, with checking and savings sections in one place rather than a network of branches.
How fast are transfers?+
Delivery on transfers is Instant, so linked account transfers land without a wait. A linked account instant transfer is charged a percentage of the amount moved, with a minimum amount per transfer, so speed carries a small charge.
