ING DIRECT exists to help you save your money.

We do business online, over the phone and by mail. Without the overhead and high operational costs of other banks, we can pass those savings onto Customers.

As proof, we have Electric OrangeSM checking, an easy-to-use paperless checking account that also pays a great interest rate. The Orange Savings Account lets you save with no fees, no minimums and a great rate. The Orange Mortgage has low closing costs, a simple, no-hassle application, and great rates that can save you thousands on your mortgage. And we've added ShareBuilder, an online brokerage designed to make investing easy and affordable for everyone.

ING DIRECT's CEO of Savings, Arkadi Kuhlmann, inspires Americans to become savers and get their money working for them.

Our unique approach to banking is backed by ING (NYSE:ING), a global financial institution of Dutch origin offering banking, insurance and asset management to over 85 million private, corporate and institutional clients in more than 50 countries. ING employs over 130,000 people in 50 countries, including more than 10,000 in the US, and has been operating in America for over 100 years. ING DIRECT is a member of the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) which insures bank deposits up to $250,000 per depositor.

ING DIRECT (the operating name of ING Bank, fsb) is headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware with innovative ING DIRECT Cafés in multiple locations across the U.S. where you can experience what Orange is all about! See all of our Café locations
