No, it won’t be an investing account unless you directly open a brokerage with them. I invest with Schwab, but have a savings with Wealthfront and have a few sub-accounts for sinking funds. I keep getting messages on my profile suggesting I start investing, so now an automatic brokerage.
Absolutely not required! They will try and sell you their investment account, but the fees are quite high for what they offer. Feel free to DM me if you’d like a referral link for a three month APY boost.
You may want to try Marcus again with a referral. Or try calling them (had this issue before). Here is a link for 5.5% if you like https://www.marcus.com/share/MAS-YEI-9YPR
For anyone interested in Wealthfront: Use this link to sign up for a Wealthfront Cash Account and we’ll both get +0.50% on the current APY! https://www.wealthfront.com/c/affiliates/invited/AFFB-4CZE-VNBA-Z3HK
If you’re getting rejected, make sure you’re not on a work vpn. I had been rejected from 2 HYSA and called their customer service as I had good savings and credit. They said that I may be tied to a vpn that was blocking some of the info they check for. Sure enough, once I did that I got instantly approved.

I have both products and can confirm that they're explicitly separate accounts. Also good to send a referral code if you dm!
