I would try yo apply Hoeffding's Lemma, who used his result to identify the bivariate cdfs with given marginal cdfs that minimize or maximize correlation. Let (X,Y)$(X,Y)$ be a random vector with bivariate cdf H$H$, let F$F$ and G$G$ be their marginal cdfs, respectively. It is well known that a sharp upper bound for H$H(x,y)$ is min(F,G)$\min(F(x),G(y))$. By Hoeffding's Lemma we get that E(XY) is bounded above by E(X)E(Y) + DI[min(F,G) - F*G], where DI stands for the double integral on the whole plane. But I don't know if this is a sharp bound or if at least it is better than the one you may obtain by Hölder's inequality. $$E(XY)\leq E(X)E(Y)+\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\big[\min(F(x),G(y))-F(x)G(y)\big]dxdy$$
