The APY shows you how much you're actually earning on your money. Other ways of quoting a rate don't necessarily show you the full picture.

The stated interest rate refers to the percentage of return that you will receive on your investment. APY refers to Annual Percentage Yield. If you re-invest the interest earned, you will begin to earn interest on your interest. This is called compounding interest.
