Marcus by Goldman Sachs offers high-yield savings accounts, personal loans, and CDs directly to consumers, backed by Goldman Sachs with no fees and competitive rates.
What is Marcus by Goldman Sachs?
Marcus by Goldman Sachs launched in 2016 as one of the most high-profile entries of a major Wall Street investment bank into consumer retail banking. Goldman Sachs had operated exclusively in investment banking, asset management, and wealth management for its entire 150-year history before Marcus, and the consumer banking venture represented a fundamental strategic shift. Marcus entered the market with a simple, compelling offer: high-yield savings accounts and personal loans with no fees and competitive interest rates, delivered through a clean digital-only experience without the overhead of physical branches.
The timing proved fortuitous: Marcus grew rapidly as interest rates eventually rose, making its savings account rates — which tracked closely to the federal funds rate — significantly more attractive than traditional bank savings products. The platform expanded to include CDs, investment accounts via Marcus Invest, and a credit card partnership with Apple, though the Apple Card relationship migrated away from Goldman in 2024. Marcus manages hundreds of billions of dollars in deposits, which makes its operational reliability a matter of regulatory as well as reputational importance.
When Marcus has an outage, the impact on customers can be financially consequential. Savings account access failures prevent customers from viewing balances or initiating transfers during time-sensitive windows. ACH transfer failures block fund movements between Marcus and linked external bank accounts, which matters particularly around payroll timing. Certificate of deposit management and renewal workflows can break during platform incidents. The Marcus mobile app is the primary interface for most customers, and authentication failures or app crashes represent a complete loss of service visibility for affected users.
