Certificates of deposit (CDs) can be an ideal account to allocate some of your
savings, especially if you’re looking for a fixed APY. Bankrate’s list of
top-yielding CD rates are much higher than today's national average yield of
1.81 percent for a one-year CD. Read more

Bankrate provides you with timely news and rate information on top yielding CDs
for some of the most popular, and largest, FDIC-insured banks and NCUA-insured
credit unions. 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. Here are Bankrate's top picks for
banks with the best CD rates.

 * Vio Bank — 6 months - 5 years, 2.75% – 5.25% APY, $500 minimum deposit
 * America First Credit Union — 3 months - 5 years, 4.20% – 5.25% APY, $500
   minimum deposit
 * Popular Direct — 3 months - 5 years, 4.25% – 5.25% APY, $10,000 minimum
   deposit
 * Synchrony Bank — 3 months - 5 years, 0.25% – 5.15% APY, no minimum deposit
 * Marcus by Goldman Sachs — 6 months - 5 years, 4.00% – 5.15% APY, $500 minimum

Note: Annual percentage yields (APYs) shown were updated between July 10 and
July 16. All other information is current as of July 15. Bankrate's editorial
team validates this information regularly, typically biweekly. APYs may have
changed since they were last updated and may vary by region for some products.

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.

   You’ll need at least $1,000 to open a Chase CD. Read full review
   
   Pros
    * Chase pays a relationship rate on its one-year CD. While the standard
      rates are not competitive, the relationship rates are on a few select
      terms.
   
   Cons
    * The Chase one-year CD has a yield that’s much lower than the national
      average.
    * You’ll need an eligible Chase checking account to earn a competitive APY
      on a Chase one-year CD.
    * You need $1,000 to open a Chase CD, which is more than the minimum at some
      other banks.

RECENT NEWS ON CD RATES

At its last meeting on June 12, the Federal Reserve, once again, didn’t change
interest rates but is projecting only one rate cut this year. The Fed’s Federal
Open Market Committee kept its key benchmark, the federal funds rate, at a
target range of 5.25 to 5.5 percent.

Although it’s generally a bad time to borrow money at these rates, and credit
card rates are near an all-time high according to Bankrate data, it’s a great
time to save as top savings yields haven’t been this high in more than a decade.
Top CD yields peaked at the end of 2023, but you can still open a CD with a
competitive APY.



> 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. 

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 July 17, 2024, according to Bankrate's
most recent survey of institutions:

CD term CD national average APY 1 year 1.81% 2 year 1.54% 3 year 1.42% 4 year
1.46% 5 year 1.43%

 * 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.

CURRENT PROMOTIONAL CD RATES

Some banks have promotional CD rates. There might be certain restrictions on
these CDs. For instance, you might have to bring money from outside the bank to
be eligible for this APY. Promotional CDs may renew at a different term and at a
different APY. (That APY is likely to not be known when you purchase a
promotional CD.)

Even some of the largest banks might have some featured CD rates.

U.S. Bank 7-month CD 4.75% APY N/A PenFed Credit Union 18-month CD 4.00% APY N/A

Bank name CD product APY Available until*



*It’s possible for these offers to end sooner.

These promotional CDs might not be available in certain areas. APYs for some
products may vary by region. The CD may renew for a different term. The
promotional offers are as of July 8.


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.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST CD FOR YOU

The top three things to look for when choosing a CD are:


 * FIND A BANK OR CREDIT UNION THAT OFFERS A COMPETITIVE YIELD
   
   Caret Down
   
   You can find CDs that are outpacing current inflation in this rate
   environment. A competitive yield helps your balance grow over time through
   interest earned compounding.

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.




WHO SHOULD GET A CD?

A CD is useful when you want to earn a consistent, fixed yield on your lump sum
of cash over the term of your savings account, especially if interest rates are
declining. It also encourages you to be disciplined in leaving your money
untouched as it earns interest because a CD is a time deposit account and
imposes an early withdrawal penalty if you withdraw your funds before the CD
matures.

A good time to open a CD is when you have a lump sum of money that you want to
sock away for a specific period of time in the hopes of consistently growing
interest. Also, it’s worth opening a CD when you know you have a specific
timeframe in mind when you think you’ll need this money. A six-month CD, for
example, could be a good place to put your money aside for an insurance premium
that’s due in eight months.

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

Traditional savings account

This account typically earns a low yield that’s usually at or below the national
average.

Caret Right

High-yield savings account

This account tends to earn a yield currently of about seven times higher than
the national average. At online-only banks, these accounts often won’t have
monthly service fees or minimum balance requirements.

Caret Right

Money market account

This is an interest-bearing account available at both banks and credit unions
which is similar to a savings account, but also offers some checking account
features.

Caret Right

Short-term bond funds

These funds, be they exchange-traded funds (ETFs) or mutual funds, typically
invest in government and corporate bonds. Short-term bond funds typically have
durations of one to three and a half years, according to Fidelity.

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.

 * 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.

 * ARE THERE FEES ASSOCIATED WITH CDS?
   
   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.

 * 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
   1.81 percent as of Jul. 17, 2024, while some top-yielding banks are currently
   offering APYs higher than 5 percent.

 * IS AN ONLINE BANK THE BEST CHOICE FOR A CD?
   
   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.

 * HOW LONG CAN YOU LEAVE MONEY IN A CD?
   
   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.

 * DO CDS HAVE BENEFICIARIES?
   
   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.
