===Interest rates charged===

Ally Invest may be charging customers a higher rate of interest than the maximum allowed rate named in statutory laws in some jurisdictions in the United States. For example, the 2024 Maryland Code Commercial law sec. 12-102<ref>{{Cite web |date=2024 |title=General Legal Rate of Interest |url=https://law.justia.com/codes/maryland/commercial-law/title-12/subtitle-1/section-12-102/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://~~archive~~.ph/~~SZNEj~~ |archive-date=~~5 Jan 2026~~ |access-date=25 Nov 2025 |website=Justitia U.S. Law}}</ref> states a maximum rate of interest of 6 percent per annum, but Ally Invest does not specify that it does not allow its interest rates to go above 6% for customers residing in Maryland. It is worth noting, however, that other companies providing brokerage services publicly advertise similarly high (less favorable) interest rates to customers. As of 2025-01-19, the public-facing Ally Invest website cites a margin loan interest rate as of 2024-12-18 of between 7.50% and 12%.{{Citation needed|date=November 2025}}
