As a business owner, you know every day can bring something new

But here’s something you can count on—growth from our Business Certificates.

Business Certificate Features

Competitive Rates

Grow your money at a fixed rate through full-term or increase your fixed rate by selecting a term that is Bump Rate eligible.

Reliable Growth

Lock in your rate and enjoy the peace of mind that your earnings are certain.

Variety of Terms

Find the term, rate, and certificate amount that works best for your business.

Business Certificate of Deposit

Business CDs are the perfect place to save money that you can afford to set aside for a while. With terms as short as six months, you can earn even higher returns than you can with our Business Savings and Business Money Market accounts.

  • Find the term and rate works best for your business
  • No monthly maintenance fee
  • $1,000 minimum opening deposit for Business Certificate of Deposit
  • $50,0000 minimum opening deposit for Jumbo Business Certificate of Deposit
  • Certificate terms 2 years and longer often offer a “Bump Rate” option, this allows members to choose to raise their CD rate if the rates for that CD term increase prior to maturity

 

There could be a fee for early withdrawal, see Truth In Savings disclosure for details. Fees can reduce earnings.
