High Yield or Rewards Checking?

Mrs. Finch and I usually keep between 30k-40k in our checking. What is the best high yield checking account or is there a checking account that allows you to get rewards like chase used to?

Capital One offers both types of accounts, but the "high yield" isn't high at all - it is variable, think it is at 0.2% right now.
ETA: just checked my August statement. It is only 0.2%.

Why that much in checking?
I keep $10k in checking and put the rest in a bond heavy investment account that I can get money out of in 3-4 days if I need it.
Earned 8% in the last 6 months. Would have earned almost nothing in the bank.

Synergy offers 2% on Kasasa checking and 1% on savings. Plus Reimburses all ATM fees if you meet.... the quota

I got an offer from Amex (apparently they have a bank now) for 0.90% personal savings account... that's the best I've seen, second to Ally.

neither
unless that's the amount you need for an emergency fund(which i highly doubt) and real estate reserves it's being wasted.
real estate or monthly dividend paying stock is what you should look into investing in.

Discover Card offers interest checking. I checked today. It's 0.95%
