How Do CDs Work?

A CD is an interest-bearing account, where funds must remain in the account for an agreed upon period of time, or “term.” You choose the investment term that works best for you—our CD terms range from 32 days to 5 years. Early withdrawal penalties will apply if funds are withdrawn before term maturity.

Generally, CD accounts let you earn a higher rate of return on money you know you won't need for a while. The fixed interest rate is guaranteed for the term of the CD if funds remain in the account until term maturity, making CDs a great low-risk investment option.
