Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Certificate of Deposit (CD)?

CDs allow you to deposit funds into an account for a set period of time (also known as the term), and earn interest on your deposit. CDs typically earn a higher rate than traditional savings accounts, enabling you to earn more in interest, faster.

What type of CD is right for me?

The right account depends on a number of factors, including how much money you can set aside in a CD, how long until you will need it, as well as your financial goals now and in the future. If you need help choosing the right CD, we can help. Book an appointment >

What is APY?

APY stands for Annual Percentage Yield and is the amount of money or interest you earn on a bank account over one year.

What do I need to open my CD account online?

Opening a CD account is fast and easy. Youʻll need the following to get started:

  • Name, social security number, date of birth (all applicants)
  • Phone number and email address
  • The bank routing number and account number to fund your account

How do I fund my CD account online?

There are two methods to fund your CD account online:

The first method, Instant Account Verification (IAV) is an easy and convenient way for you to use the username and password of your existing account with another financial institution to verify and fund your new account on the spot.

The second method, Small Dollar Verification (SDV) verifies your new account by depositing two small deposits (less than $1 each) into your existing bank account. The deposits will appear within 1-3 business days. You will then need to log back into your new deposit account application and verify the deposit amounts to successfully open your account online.
