Maximum Checking

4.55% interest. Access up to $125 million in FDIC Insurance*.

How is up to $125 million in FDIC insurance possible?

  • U.S banks offer their depositors up to $250,000 of FDIC insurance (per ownership category).

  • We teamed up with Grasshopper Bank, N.A., to access a network of banks to allocate deposits in increments of up to $250,000 per bank

  • All from one account that you open through Meow

How is 4.55% interest possible?

  • Fintechs are built on banks

  • Banks make money by earning interest on customer cash

  • The interest is based on the Federal Funds rate which is over 5.00% today

If you keep $1 million in a checking account with 0% interest, you're losing out on close to $50,000 / year in interest.

U.S. Government Treasury Bills

T-Bills

What are Treasury Bills?

  • Securities issued by the U.S. Department of Treasury

  • Backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. Government

  • Treasury Bills fail if the U.S. Government defaults

T-BILLS

Why did no one buy Treasury Bills before?

In 2020, the interest rate on a 3 month Treasury Bill was 0.1%.

On $10 million, you earned $10,000 over one year.

Today, the same t-bill pays you up to 50x (or 5%*)!

That is a potential $500,000 to extend your runway or hire more engineers.*

Brokerage services provided by BNY Mellon Pershing, Member SIPC through a clearing and custody partnership with Helium Advisors. Meow is not an investment adviser; however we’ve partnered with Helium Advisors LLC (“Helium”), an SEC-registered investment adviser, to bring you certain investing features. All investment advisory services are provided by Helium. We are not affiliated with Helium however we receive compensation as a percentage of assets managed by Helium for promoting Helium’s investment advisory services. Our partnership with Helium gives us an incentive to refer you to Helium instead of another investment adviser that is not a partner of ours. This conflict of interest affects our ability to provide you with unbiased, objective information about the services of Helium. This could mean that the services of another investment adviser with whom we are not partnered may be more appropriate for you than those of Helium. Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal, and there is no assurance that the investment will provide positive performance over any period of time. Helium accounts are not bank guaranteed or FDIC insured. ~5% is sourced from treasurydirect.gov May 2023 12-week U.S. Treasury Bill auction.
