FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a CD and how does it work?

A certificate of deposit (CD) is a savings product that pays a fixed interest rate for a set term. In exchange for leaving funds untouched, you typically earn a higher APY than a standard savings account.

Are CDs safe?

Yes. CDs at FDIC-insured banks are protected up to $250,000 per depositor, per bank. Credit union CDs carry equivalent NCUA insurance.

What CD term should I choose?

Shorter terms (3–12 months) offer flexibility; longer terms (3–5 years) typically lock in higher rates. A CD ladder can balance both.

Can I withdraw money early from a CD?

Usually yes, but most banks charge an early-withdrawal penalty equal to several months of interest. Check the terms before opening.

How often are these rates updated?

We refresh listed APYs every business day directly from each institution.
