1 rate: "Interest rate" is the best answer here. Interest rates are usually expressed as a percentage, and represent the amount of money one receives or "earns" on the funds they have in an account. Example: "The interest rate on our Bonus Account is 5.9%".
2 deposit: "Deposit" is the right answer here. To "deposit money into an account" is to give money (either cash or a cheque) to the bank, so that they can increase the amount of money in your account. Example: "My grandmother always deposits £10 into my account on my birthday". Note that there is a related noun: "a deposit". Example: "The minimum deposit is only $1".
3 earn: "Earn" is the term we are looking for here. To "earn money" is to "acquire" or "receive" money. You can "earn money with a savings account", and you can "earn $4000 per month" if you have a good job. Another example: "I'm a waiter, and I don't earn much money".
