6% apy savings too good to be true?

has anyone every heard of or have any experience with mangomoney?  its a prepaid debit card but they have savings account and are advertising 6% apy on balances upto 5k if you sign up for direct deposit. the highest rates i see are typically .65-1.01 apy.  yes  there are fees for atm and etc. and a $3 a month account fee, but assuming $50 a month direct deposit, and not getting hit w/ anything other than the account fee you would get 284 in interest on 5k. this just sounds too good to be true to me what do you guys think?
