Save with Confidence
Thanks to the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) and a wide variety of CD products, we're able to offer higher interest rates while still ensuring your funds are FDIC insured.
Time Deposits (CD)
Time Deposits are designed to save money in a conservative investment that earns a higher interest rate compared to a regular savings account.
- Minimum opening deposit: $1,000
- No service charges
- Competitive, fixed rate interest
- Interest can be deposited into a deposit account if your CD balance is $10,000 or greater
- Withdrawals are accepted with a penalty
- Can be used for estate planning
- Can be used as collateral on a loan
