Overview

Synergy Bank first started operating in 1999 with headquarters in Houma, Louisiana. Synergy Bank owns assets of $1.20 billion as well as deposits totaling $1.04 billion, which makes it a medium-size bank. Synergy Bank lacks premium access to customer service, with no live chat or all-day service options available. It is a traditional brick-and-mortar bank with access to service representatives at a physical location, in addition to its online and mobile apps. We gave the bank a 4.5 stars out of 5, suggesting Synergy Bank is an exceptional bank that would be a perfect pick. Synergy Bank has a full suite of product offerings, which include savings accounts, checking accounts, money market accounts, CDs, IRAs, mortgage products and credit cards. Synergy Bank has a fair savings rate compared to the average savings account. If you're looking for a checking account for everyday use, Synergy Bank offers an option without a monthly fee. Banks that offer free checking and a high interest rate savings account are your best bet for returning the most income from your deposits while maintaining convenient access to your funds.
