Clicking on a particular bank listing brings up more detailed info. Users may also add banks to their watch list and get email alerts whenever the bank rates change.

MyBankTracker is a comprehensive bank reviews, ratings & profiles tracker website (US only) where you can search and get info for more than 500 financial products and services. You can compare mortgage rates across different banks, check out the credit card rates being offered, review a bank’s profile and get the latest news from the US financial markets.

In addition to bank reviews and ratings the site also offers financial tools like APY calculator and APR loan calculator. You also get to see the top credit card deals, rewards, risk free no penalty CD rates, low interest credit card offers and much more.

As you can see, the site has an excellent design and a clean user interface. I’m no finance wizard but I can definitely say that during this period of financial turmoil, this site could be a great help to many US citizens who would want to find new deals on loans, cards, check out on banks’ performance and consolidate their finance portfolios.
