What are you using for a cash fund?

Since bank savings accounts are basically earning little to no interest what are you gents using for cash accounts? A friend told me about a Schwab fund he gets 1.72%, (SWVXX) but I noticed it has a 0.44% expense ratio. Seeing Vanguard has a fund, VUSXX paying 1.82% with a 0.09% expense ratio.
Anyone have any funds they use of interest? Pun intended.

Can you give more details? Is this a savings account tied to credit card? Rates, fees?

At Fidelity, I use SPRXX which is at 1.63%. For money markets, as long as you're good with the yield the expense ratio doesn't matter.
I could probably get better yield from another company's product but Fido treats theirs as cash. No need to sell it first in order to buy something else. Also, with Fido cash management account when I pay bills/atm it will automatically liquidate enough to cover the debit.

It’s paying 1.8. No fees. Don’t need a credit card through discover. Easy to set up.

Campus federal lagniappe checking gets me 2.31 percent up to 10k so that’s what I keep it in. Most of the rest is invested but I’ll look for another high yield account or MMA if I decide to be a little more liquid.

Marcus. Was 2.25% is now at 1.90%. It’ll probably get lowered again with the most recent rate cut.

Have that, and a couple of Cap One online 1-yr CDs that just renewed at 2.3%. Convenient to have one site and app to keep up with checking plus MM savings and CDs.

I never stepped foot into an Alliant CU branch but it's my main bank
1.7% savings rate .45% cash rate, no nickle and dime fees, very easy to use online portal to use as a banking hub to push/pull money from external bank accounts and bill pay
also never have to worry about ATMs as they are a member of every major ATM network and do automatic fee reimbursement if you use a non-network ATM
