This way you don’t have to spend time searching many bank and credit union websites. Since 1976, Bankrate has been a trusted source of banking information to help you make well-informed decisions on your finances. Before opening a certificate of deposit, be sure to read expert advice and tips below to ensure a financially safe decision.

Show Less Page preview: Table of contents Show me: The following accounts can be found at most banks and credit unions. They’re federally insured for up to $250,000 and offer a safe place to put your money while earning interest. Certificate of Deposit (CD) CDs are best for individuals looking for a guaranteed rate of return that’s typically higher than a savings account. In exchange for a higher rate, funds are tied up for a set period of time and early withdrawal penalties may apply. Checking account Checking accounts are best for individuals who want to keep their money safe while still having easy, day-to-day access to their funds. ATM and other transactional fees may apply. Savings / Money Market Accounts (MMA) Savings and MMAs are good options for individuals looking to save for shorter-term goals. They’re a safe way to separate your savings from everyday cash, but may require larger minimum balances and have transfer limitations.

BANKRATE'S EXPERTISE Bankrate logo BANKRATE’S TRUSTED INDUSTRY KNOWLEDGE Read our full methodology -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our banking editorial team regularly evaluates data from more than a hundred of the top financial institutions across a range of categories (brick-and-mortar banks, online banks, credit unions and more) to help you find the options that work best for you. 48 years of industry experience 3 k deposits rates tracked 120 banks reviewed RECENT NEWS ON CD RATES At its last meeting on Jan. 31, the Federal Reserve kept interest rates steady and projected there could be multiple rate cuts in 2024. The Fed’s Federal Open Market Committee kept its key benchmark, the federal funds rate (which determines how much banks borrow and lend their reserves to each other overnight), at a target range of 5.25 to 5.5 percent. Although it’s a bad time to borrow money at these rates, it’s a great time to save as interest rates on savings accounts are at their highest in 22 years. And even though rates remain steady, now is still a good time to consider long-term CDs after the Fed raised rates 11 times since March 2022. The Fed’s next scheduled announcement regarding interest rates is March 20. > CD yields have peaked. Whether your time horizon is measured in months or > years, think about locking in current CD yields. — Greg McBride, CFA | > Bankrate chief financial analyst WHERE ARE CD RATES HEADED IN 2024? CD rates are likely to maintain their current levels or slightly dip headed into March. Yields are likely to start decreasing months before the Fed begins lowering rates. Currently, shorter-term CDs – with terms of six months to 18 months – generally have higher yields than longer-term CDs. But those longer-term CD yields could be peaking soon, if they haven’t already. So locking one in now could be a good decision for long-term money that you want to keep safe in an FDIC-insured bank. However, most CDs have significant early withdrawal penalties, so consider these when deciding on an account and term. NATIONAL AVERAGE INTEREST RATES FOR CDS The national average of CD interest rates suggests that shorter term CDs have higher yields than longer-term CDs. With the Fed having raised rates 11 times since March 2022, what goes up might eventually come down. So, getting a long-term CD now could make sense if the Fed lowers rates in the future. Researching average interest rates provides insight into the CD rate environment and can help in finding a CD with a yield that's much higher than average. Here are the current average rates as of March 12, 2024, according to Bankrate's most recent survey of institutions: CD term CD national average APY 1 year 1.73% 2 year 1.52% 3 year 1.41% 4 year 1.47% 5 year 1.43% CD term CD national average APY * HOW BANKRATE CALCULATES THE NATIONAL AVERAGE Caret Down Bankrate calculates and reports the national average APYs for various CD terms. Factored into national average rates are the competitive APYs commonly offered by online banks, along with the very low rates often found at large brick-and-mortar banks. In June 2023, Bankrate updated its methodology that determines the national average CD rates. For the process, more than 500 banks and credit unions are now surveyed each week to generate the national averages. Among these institutions are those that are broadly available and offer high yields, as well as some of the nation’s largest banks.

COMPARE TOP CD RATES TODAY BY TERM When you open a CD, selecting a term is an important step. The term is the length of time that the money stays stashed in the account. For example, opening a CD with a one-year term means you’re making a commitment to the bank that you’ll keep your money in the account for one year. Here’s where you’ll find some of the top yielding CDs by term. 3-month rates 6-month rates 1-year rates 3-year rates 5-year rates Caret Down * 3-month rates * 6-month rates * 1-year rates * 3-year rates * 5-year rates Institution APY Min. deposit America First Credit Union 5.50% APY $500 Popular Direct 5.25% APY $10,000 Wells Fargo 4.50% APY $2,500 Institution APY Min. deposit Bask Bank 5.35% APY $1,000 America First Credit Union 5.30% APY $500 Popular Direct 5.30% APY $10,000 Institution APY Min. deposit Alliant Credit Union 5.40% APY $1,000 Bask Bank 5.40% APY $1,000 First Internet Bank of Indiana 5.36% APY $1,000 Institution APY Min. deposit First Internet Bank of Indiana 4.76% APY $1,000 Popular Direct 4.55% APY $10,000 SchoolsFirst Federal Credit Union 4.45% APY $500 Institution APY Min. deposit First Internet Bank of Indiana 4.61% APY $1,000 SchoolsFirst Federal Credit Union 4.60% APY $500 Popular Direct 4.45% APY $10,000 Note: Annual percentage yields (APYs) shown are as of March 12, 2024.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST CD FOR YOU CDs are a good option for longer-term goals or for money that you’re comfortable locking away for a set period of time. Follow the steps below to choose the right CD strategy for you: 1. Determine what the money will be earmarked for. Money you may need in the near future, such as for an emergency fund or short-term goals, usually works better in a liquid account such as a high-yield savings account or money market account. A no-penalty CD may also be a good place for money you might need access to before the CD matures. 2. Figure out when you’ll need the money in the CD and pick a term that aligns with your savings goals. Terms can range from just a few months to several years. 3. Decide whether you prefer a fixed or variable APY. (If you think the Fed has raised rates so many times that rates will decrease in the future, you might want a CD with a fixed APY instead of a savings account with a variable APY.) 4. Shop around and compare rates. Research banks and credit unions to find the best rates as well as a minimum opening deposit that’s in line with the amount you plan to put in the CD. Generally, rates are highest at online banks, but it’s possible for a brick-and-mortar bank or a credit union to offer a competitive yield. TYPES OF CDS Banks and credit unions offer a wide range of CDs to fit different financial needs. Take some time to consider which type of CD is best for you. Traditional CDs No-penalty CDs Bump-up CDs Caret Down * Traditional CDs * No-penalty CDs * Bump-up CDs Traditional CDs are the most common type of CD, and they earn a fixed APY for the entire term. These CDs usually don’t allow you to add more funds after your opening deposit, and they also tend to have strict early withdrawal penalties. If you withdraw from a CD before it matures, the penalty is usually equal to the amount of interest earned during a certain period of time. For instance, a bank may impose a penalty of 90 days of simple interest on a one-year CD if you withdraw from that CD before the year is up. When this CD makes sense: Traditional CDs are a good choice if you know exactly when you’ll need the money and there’s no chance of needing it before the term is up. They’re often good for CD ladders or other CD investing strategies in which timing is important. Most CDs charge you a penalty for accessing the funds before the term is up. However, some banks offer no-penalty CDs — also known as liquid CDs — which allow you to withdraw the money early without being charged a penalty. A bank may require that you wait at least some time after opening a no-penalty CD — generally around six or seven days — before you’re able to withdraw from the CD, and some banks don’t allow for partial withdrawals. No-penalty CD rates tend to be lower than regular CD rates, but they can be better than some high-yield savings account or money market account rates. When this CD makes sense: Consider a no-penalty CD if you don’t plan to withdraw the money before the CD matures, but you want to keep some flexibility in case you need access to the funds. As a result, you’re willing to give up a little return for added liquidity. Bump-up CDs enable you to request an increase in your rate during the CD term under certain conditions. Banks that offer this CD usually allow just one bump-up per term. For example, you may open a three-year CD at a given rate, and the bank offers an additional half-point rate increase when you’re one year into the term. With a bump-up CD, you can request a rate increase for the remainder of the term. Like no-penalty CDs, bump-up CDs often pay lower rates than traditional CDs. When this CD makes sense: A bump-up CD could be a good option if rates are expected to rise significantly during the term of the CD. Otherwise, you’re likely accepting a lower rate for limited potential upside. HOW DOES A CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT WORK? A CD is a type of account offered by banks and credit unions that generally earns a fixed APY for the CD’s term. Regular CDs also generally have early withdrawal penalties if you make a withdrawal before the CD term ends. WHO SHOULD GET A CD? Savers looking for a low-risk place to earn a guaranteed rate of return should consider getting a CD. They can be a good choice for short- to medium-term goals, such as saving for a new car or for a down payment on a home. A CD is worth considering for the following people: Invest Rate Low-risk investors For a person looking to make a purchase in a set number of years, a CD could be a great option for earning a competitive rate of interest leading up to that time. Clock Wait Time specific goal-setters For a person looking to make a purchase in a set number of months or years, a CD could be a great option for earning a competitive rate of interest leading up to that time. Lock Secure Impulse spenders A CD can help keep you from spending your money on a whim, thanks to its early withdrawal penalty. PROS AND CONS OF CDS Before you choose a CD, weigh the pros and cons to ensure you're making the right investment choice for your financial situation. PROS * Checkmark Some CDs earn a higher APY than money market accounts or savings accounts. * Checkmark CDs are a good place to store funds that you don’t want to be able to dip into too easily. * Checkmark CDs can help you separate money for financial goals or future expenses. * Checkmark Deposit insurance covers accounts at FDIC banks and NCUA credit unions up to at least $250,000. * Checkmark A CD can diversify your savings plan with a guaranteed rate. * Checkmark Your principal remains intact if you keep your money in a CD for the full term. CONS * CDs tie up your money for a potentially long period of time. * Many CDs have early withdrawal penalties. * Money committed to a CD could end up earning a lackluster yield if rates rise substantially. The early withdrawal penalty may negate any benefit of switching to a higher-yielding CD, however. * You could potentially earn better rates of return in the stock market or by investing in other securities. ALTERNATIVES TO CDS CDS VS. TRADITIONAL SAVINGS ACCOUNTS Savings and money market accounts are more liquid than CDs, meaning the funds you keep in those types of accounts are easier to access without penalties or limitations. This makes savings accounts better for your emergency fund. You could withdraw the savings you’ve placed in a CD, but be prepared to pay a penalty if you take the money out before the CD’s maturity date (unless you’ve purchased a no-penalty CD). CDS VS. HIGH-YIELD SAVINGS ACCOUNTS CDs generally have an early withdrawal penalty if you withdraw your money before the CD matures. CDs generally have fixed APYs. A high-yield savings account is a liquid account that allows you to withdraw money without a fee and savings accounts generally have variable APYs. CDS VS. MONEY MARKET ACCOUNTS CDs have set terms and generally also have early withdrawal penalties if you withdraw your money before that term ends. Money market accounts, like savings accounts, generally have variable APYs. But unlike most savings accounts, they might have check-writing privileges – which let you write checks from this account. In exchange for less liquidity, however, CDs typically offer a higher interest rate than money market accounts. CDS VS. BONDS CDs typically pay a fixed interest rate, so you know how much you’re earning up front. You’re also guaranteed to receive the same interest rate for the entire term and receive your full principal amount back, as long as you don’t make any premature withdrawals. On the other hand, bonds offer more flexibility and the chance to earn a higher yield. A bond is a loan you make to a government or a corporation to receive some interest. You can sell a bond before it matures without getting hit with an early withdrawal penalty, and you may get back more or less than your original investment if interest rates have moved. With municipal bonds, the interest you earn is often exempt from taxes. There are many different types of bonds, and some are riskier than others. Bonds aren’t protected by FDIC or NCUSIF insurance like CDs are, and the value of your bonds will fluctuate based on what’s happening with interest rates. If interest rates are rising, the price of your bonds will likely fall and vice versa. HOW TO BUILD A CD LADDER CD laddering staggers the maturity dates on your CDs. This strategy involves buying multiple CDs at once that mature at different dates. It’s a way to spread out when the money becomes available and to keep from having all of your money stuck in a long-term CD if rates rise. In the current rate environment, purchasing a 3-year CD now could potentially help you earn a yield that might not be available if the Fed lowers rates. CD laddering can also shield you from interest rate changes that could otherwise hurt you. If rates are rising, you’ll be able to take advantage of higher yields the next time one of your laddered CDs matures. On the other hand, if interest rates are falling, you’ll be glad you locked up your savings when the bank was paying more favorable yields. Consider keeping your CD ladder focused on CDs with shorter-term maturities during a rising rate environment so you can more quickly take advantage of higher rates. Conversely, committing to CDs with longer terms makes more sense when rates are decreasing because it enables you to continue earning higher CD yields than the market currently offers. * EXAMPLE OF A CD LADDER Caret Down For example, a CD laddering plan of three CDs might have a one-year CD, a two-year CD and a three-year CD. If you have $15,000 to invest, you could invest $5,000 in each rung: * $5,000 in a one-year CD * $5,000 in a two-year CD * $5,000 in a three-year CD * $5,000 in a four-year CD * $5,000 in a five-year CD For example, a CD laddering plan of three CDs might have a one-year CD, a two-year CD and a three-year CD. If you have $15,000 to invest, you could invest $5,000 in each rung: * $5,000 in a one-year CD * $5,000 in a two-year CD * $5,000 in a three-year CD * $5,000 in a four-year CD * $5,000 in a five-year CD CD FAQS * HOW ARE CDS TAXED? Caret Down Generally, you’ll receive a Form 1099-INT each year if you earn more than $10 interest, if there is withholding or if there is a penalty. This will generally be taxed as ordinary income, according to the IRS. For instance, a CD customer with a multi-year CD should receive a 1099-INT from their bank after each year interest is earned if at least $10 of interest was earned during a calendar year. Generally, you’ll receive a Form 1099-INT each year if you earn more than $10 interest, if there is withholding or if there is a penalty. This will generally be taxed as ordinary income, according to the IRS. For instance, a CD customer with a multi-year CD should receive a 1099-INT from their bank after each year interest is earned if at least $10 of interest was earned during a calendar year. * ARE CDS SAFE? Caret Down Your CD is safe at either an FDIC-insured bank or an NCUSIF-insured credit union, as long as the amount of money in the account is within the established limits and guidelines. Federally insured deposit accounts are safe whether they’re at online banks, brick-and-mortar banks or credit unions since they’re backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. Just make sure you’re not exceeding the insurance limits. For federally-insured banks and credit unions, the standard insurance limit is $250,000 per depositor or share owner, per insured bank or credit union, for each account ownership category.

Caret Down CDs generally have an early withdrawal penalty for taking your money out before the CD matures. No-penalty CDs are the exception, though they may also impose a penalty if the funds are withdrawn during the first six or seven days after the account is opened.

No-penalty CDs are the exception, though they may also impose a penalty if the funds are withdrawn during the first six or seven days after the account is opened. * WHAT IS CONSIDERED A GOOD CD RATE? Caret Down A good CD rate depends on a few factors, but the true answer depends on your personal financial situation. If you need to access your money in a year, for example, your best CD options will be those with a one-year term or less. If you’re able to lock up your money for longer, you may be able to achieve a higher yield with a longer-term CD. In general, longer terms may pay better yields. Knowing for sure that you won’t need your cash for a specific amount of time also typically allows you to earn a higher rate. The bank is willing to pay you more for the certainty that your money will remain in its hands for the designated length of time. Compare CD rates to the national average to make sure you’re getting a competitive return. For example, the national average APY for 1-year CDs is 1.73 percent as of Mar. 12, 2024, while some top-yielding banks are currently offering APYs higher than 5 percent.

Caret Down Online banks tend to offer higher APYs than brick-and-mortar banks. These online-only institutions typically have lower overhead costs and are able to pass the savings along to their customers in the form of higher rates. In addition, unlike your bank located on the corner of Main Street, online banks may need a higher APY to get your attention and earn your business.

Caret Down You can keep your money in a CD and let it renew over and over. CDs generally automatically renew. However, unclaimed CDs can be escheated — or transferred from an estate to the government — subject to each state’s laws. To avoid your CD being escheated due to being considered abandoned property, be sure to keep in touch with your bank and keep a valid mailing address on file.

Caret Down Banks give account holders with CDs the opportunity to name a beneficiary, which is a person who will inherit your savings in the event that you die. While naming a beneficiary for your CD may be the last thing on your mind, experts say it’s an important step to take. If you don’t have a beneficiary designated to receive the funds in your CD, your savings will go through probate, which is the court process for deciding what happens to the property of an individual after their death.

Caret Down As long as your CD is at an FDIC-insured bank or an NCUA credit union and it’s within insurance limits and guidelines, you won’t lose money with a CD. You may lose some of your interest — and potentially some of your principal — by making an early withdrawal, however.
