About Certificate of Deposits
What is a CD?
Certificates of Deposit3 are great for saving money you don’t need access to until the end of your specified term.
CDs allow you to save money over a fixed timeframe otherwise known as a “term” at a fixed interest rate. Traditional savings accounts have variable interest rates and may change over time. When you invest in a CD you will know what to expect at the end of your term.

DISCLOSURES:
*APY = Annual Percentage Yield is accurate as of today and assumes that interest and principal will remain on deposit until maturity.
1 - FDIC insured up to $250,000 per depositor, per ownership category.
2 - Offer good for the initial term only. This account will automatically renew. You will have 10 calendar days after maturity date to withdraw funds without penalty. If you do not withdraw funds, each renewal term will be for an identical period of time as the original term. Interest on renewed accounts will be calculated at the interest rate then in effect for time deposits of that deposit amount and term. Fees could reduce the earnings on the account.
3 - A Certificate of Deposit (CD) is a Time Deposit account. By opening a Time Deposit account, you will agree to keep funds in your account until the maturity of your account. If you choose to close your account early, an early withdrawal penalty may apply. If your Account has not yet earned enough interest so that the penalty can be deducted from earned interest, or if the interest already has been paid, the difference will be deducted from the principal amount of your Account. For fixed rate Accounts, we will use the rate in effect for your deposit.
