VirtualBank is offering $20 in a new account referral program up to a maximum of $600. By using the URL below and opening an account (minimum opening balance of $100), you'll get an extra $20 deposited in that account. You will then be able to refer up to 30 more people, and you'll get another $20 for each successful referral. Plus, each of those people will get the free $20 for opening the account. You can earn up to $600 in referrals, and that money will be gaining interest! (Current APY @ 3.34%.)

And don't let VirtualBank's name deter you, it's legit. VirtualBank is a division of Lydian Private Bank and is FDIC insured. Because it has no physical presence, it avoids the overhead of property taxes, building maintenance, employee payrolls/benefits, etc. These savings are passed on to its customers in the form of higher yields. The current yield on their eMoney Market account is an impressive 3.34%.
BankOne's Money Market account, for comparison, has a yield of 0.90%, and that's with a minimum balance of $2,000. BankOne's highest rate, 1.34%, requires a minimum balance of $50,000. (This begs the question: who would be satisfied with only 1.34% on $50,000?)
The VirtualBank eMoney Market account has no monthly fees and free transfers to and from your local bank's personal checking account.
