Investors in money market funds should carefully consider information contained in the prospectus, or, if available, the summary prospectus, including investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. You can request a mutual fund prospectus by calling Schwab at 800-435-4000. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.

1.    The Schwab Bank Investor Savings Account™, with a minimum balance of $0.01, offers a 0.48% annual percentage yield (APY) as of 11/13/2023. This rate is variable and may change without notice.

2.    Based on changes to certain federal regulations made in response to COVID-19, effective May 2020 and until further written notice is provided, Schwab Bank has indefinitely suspended enforcement of provisions in the Schwab Bank Deposit Account Agreement that limit the number of certain types of withdrawals and transfers from Investor Savings accounts to a total of six (6) each monthly statement cycle. This change means that clients may make withdrawals and transfers from their Investor Savings account without limit, and Schwab Bank will not take action to convert or close Investor Savings accounts based on the number of withdrawals and transfers made.
 
3.    Funds deposited at Charles Schwab Bank, SSB are insured, in aggregate, up to $250,000, based on account ownership type, by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

4.    Unlimited ATM surcharge rebates apply to cash withdrawals using the Schwab One Visa® Platinum Check Card or the Schwab Bank Visa® Platinum Debit Card at ATM's where they are accepted. ATM surcharge rebates do not apply to any fees other than surcharges assessed for using an ATM to withdraw cash in local currency from your Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. Schwab One brokerage account or your Charles Schwab Bank, SSB account. Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. and Charles Schwab Bank, SSB make their best efforts to identify those ATM surcharges eligible for rebate, based on information they receive from Visa and from ATM operators. In the event that you have not received a rebate for an eligible surcharge, please call a Schwab One Client Service Specialist at 800-421-4488 or a Schwab Bank Client Service Specialist at 888-403-9000. Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. and Charles Schwab Bank, SSB reserve the right to modify or discontinue this ATM surcharge rebate at any time. 

5.    If you use your card to withdraw foreign currency from an ATM, or to pay for a purchase with foreign currency, we charge your account for the U.S. dollar equivalent of the transaction. Depending on the specific arrangements that are in place, the exchange rate will be determined by the bank at which you conduct the transaction, the network to which the ATM belongs, or Visa®.
 
6.    The Schwab Mobile Deposit™ service is subject to certain eligibility requirements, limitations, and other conditions. Enrollment is not guaranteed. Standard hold policies apply. Requires a wireless signal or mobile connection. Access to Electronic Services may be limited or unavailable during period of peak demand, market volatility, systems upgrade, maintenance, or for other reasons.  Functionality may vary by operating system and/or device. Mobile carrier data charges may apply.

7.    May be subject to state, local, and the federal Alternative Minimum Tax. Capital gains are not exempt from federal taxes.

8.    Fund expenses and other fees may apply.

9.    Certificates of deposit (CDs) from Schwab CD OneSource® are issued by FDIC-insured institutions and are subject to change and system access. Funds are FDIC-insured up to $250,000 per depositor per insured institution, based on account ownership type. Visit www.fdic.gov for details. For most CDs, there are no additional commission charges when you buy a CD through Schwab CD OneSource. However, there may be costs and market value adjustments associated with early redemption. CDs available through Schwab CD OneSource typically offer a fixed rate of return, although some offer variable rates.   The minimum quantity is generally $1,000 face amount but may vary by offering. CDs may be subject to an early withdrawal penalty.

10.    Funds deposited at an FDIC-insured institution are insured, in aggregate, up to $250,000 per depositor, per insured institution, based upon account type, by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).  CDs you purchase from a particular bank are aggregated with any other deposits you may have with the issuing bank for purposes of determining FDIC insurance coverage (e.g., if you already have deposits of $250,000 with a bank, CDs you purchase from the same bank in the same ownership category may not be covered). Because the deposit insurance rules are complex, you may want to use the FDIC's Electronic Deposit Insurance Estimator (EDIE)  to estimate your total coverage at any particular bank.

11.    Not all services are available on retirement accounts or in certain Schwab One accounts (those owned by organizations or in managed accounts).

12.    Schwab One Interest and Bank Sweep are the two primary cash features. Money Fund Sweep feature is an additional cash feature available to certain accounts.

This rate is variable and may change without notice.

13.    If your account is an IRA, withdrawals prior to age 59 ½ may be subject to a tax penalty.

14.    Bank Sweep deposits are held at one or more FDIC-insured banks (collectively, the "Program Banks"). Funds deposited at Program Banks are insured, in aggregate, up to $250,000 per Program Bank, per depositor, for each account ownership category, by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Securities products and services (including unswept or intra-day cash, net credit or debit balances, and money market funds) offered by Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (member SIPC) are not deposits or obligations of the Program Banks, are subject to investment risk, are not FDIC insured, may lose value, and are not Program Bank-guaranteed. Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. and the Affiliated Program Banks are separate entities and are all affiliates of The Charles Schwab Corporation.

15.    Schwab One Interest is not a bank account and is not FDIC-insured. Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. is a member of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), which provides up to $500,000 (including $250,000 for claims for cash) of coverage when aggregated with other securities and cash held by you in the same capacity at Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. SIPC coverage protects eligible brokerage assets up to applicable limits in the case of a brokerage firm’s insolvency. It does not protect against investment losses.
