Colorado Federal Savings Bank was founded in 1990 and headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado. They were originally chartered as a savings institution, however they were acquired in 2008 by new ownership and expanded their product line to include real estate lending solutions for commercial clients. That said, they still maintain a heavy focus on consumer deposit accounts.

Colorado Federal Savings Bank is a direct banking platform complete with FDIC-insurance but with no physical branches.

In our review below, we will focus on Colorado Federal Savings Bank’s CD rates (certificates of deposit). They offer nine CDs to choose from with terms ranging from just 1 month to 5 years. All of their current yields beat the national average by a considerable margin and even beat many of the best yields from online banks. Continue reading below for current rates and more details.

Colorado Federal Savings Bank CD Rates + Account Details

All of Colorado Federal Savings Bank’s nine CDs come with a minimum deposit of $5,000 to open an account. All deposits are federally insured by the FDIC up to $250,000 per depositor or $500,000 for joint accounts.

Compounding Interest

Interest is compounded daily and credited to your account on the last day of each month. You will start earning interest on the night that your application is processed and funded.

Early Withdrawal Penalties

If you need to make a partial or full withdrawal of your CD funds prior to maturity you will encounter a fee.

Early withdrawal fees are as follows:

CD TermFee
1 month1 months of interest
2 months1 months of interest
3 months1 months of interest
6 months3 months of interest
12 months3 months of interest
24 months6 months of interest
36 months6 months of interest
60 months6 months of interest

If you’re opening the 11 month No-Penalty CD, you are allowed to withdraw any or all of your funds without incurring a penalty fee after 7 days of opening the account. Please note that no withdrawals of any kind are allowed during this 7-day period.

Funding Your CD

Funding your CD and receiving your funds upon maturity are pretty straight forward. You may send or request funds via an external bank. This must be initiated from your CFSB online account. There are no fees for ACH transfers.

Other Deposit Accounts Offered

Colorado Federal Savings Bank offers two additional deposit accounts that earn interest. These are:

  1. High Yield Savings account featuring an APY of 4.00%.
  2. Premier Savings account featuring an APY of 4.05%.

The high yield savings account comes with a minimum balance of just $1.00 while the premier savings account comes with a much steeper minimum balance requirement of $50,000.

You must also be a new customer to Colorado Federal Savings Bank to open the Premier Savings account. A new customer is defined as someone who has not had a bank account with them in at least 60 days.

Both accounts are FDIC-insured up to the applicable limits. Accessing your funds is only available through ACH transfers. You are allowed up to 6 free ACH transfers per monthly statement cycle. If you exceed this amount, you will be charged $25 per transfer after the sixth.

That said, some of the top CD rates offered by online banks are now above the 5.00% and 4.60% APY mark for the same respective terms.

Compounding and Crediting Interest

Merrick Bank CDs feature daily compounding interest. They credit this interest to your account monthly on roughly the same day you opened the CD.

If you would like to have this interest paid out to an external bank account, you may contact them to set up a monthly ACH transfer at 1-866-638-6851.

Grace Period and Early Withdrawal Fees

You’ll have 10 calendar days upon your CDs maturity ‘the grace period’ in which you may add or withdraw any or all funds without incurring a penalty. If the 10th day falls on a non-business day, then the grace period will be extended to the next business day.

If you need any of your funds prior to your certificate’s maturity, then you will incur a penalty fee.

  • Your bank or credit union’s routing number

Banking Experience and Consumer Sentiment

Although Merrick Bank’s CDs come with highly competitive rates, they do have low review ratings on the BBB (Better Business Bureau).

That said, nearly all the reviews have to deal with their credit card products and not with their certificates of deposit.

Regardless, they have just a 1.08 star rating out of 5 with over 289 reviews as of the time of this writing.

In terms of their mobile apps, Merrick Bank receives much higher marks.

Their IOS app has a 4.5 star rating out of 5 with over 6,300 consumer ratings and their Android app has a 4.6 star rating out of 5 with over 12,900 consumer reviews.

The only type of deposit accounts Merrick Bank offers are its CDs. They don’t currently offer checking accounts, savings accounts or money market accounts.

There are also no ATMs nor is Merrick Bank a member of any ATM network.

Apple Bank CD Rates – Now up to 4.75% APY!

Written by: editorial staff
May 11, 2023
Fact Checked : Dan Nelson
May 11, 2023

Apple Bank serves the New York Metropolitan area, but has a storied history being founded in 1863 in Harlem in the aftermath of the Civil War.

Harlem was a primarily Dutch suburban village, not yet a part of New York City and the country was undergoing fundamental change. One element of this change was through financial reforms that brought about the formation of many regional banks.

Apple Bank was one of the few banking institutions that stood the test of time through the depression era, the 2008 financial collapse and up to present day.

Today, their coverage still remains in New York City and you must visit a local branch and speak with a banker to open one of their deposit products.

If you can manage that, you’ll find the APY (annual percentage yields) provided on some of their CDs are fairly competitive when compared to the national average(s), but don’t stack up as well against the best rates from FDIC-insured online banks.

For a full review of Apple Bank’s certificate of deposit suite, continue reading below.

Apple Bank CD Rates + Account Details

image credit: applebank.com

Apple Bank currently offers CDs with six terms ranging from 6 months to 3 years. Apple Bank is member FDIC and consumer deposits are federally insured up to the applicable limits. They also offer CDARS (certificate of deposit account registry service) which can offer FDIC insurance into the millions of dollars [learn more here]. We should note though that these accounts simply leverage the FDIC insurance of other institutions. Therefore they may come with different terms and conditions than what Apple Bank provides. You can speak with your Apple Bank representative for more information on how these products work and which banks they’ve partnered with.

Standard FDIC insurance covers consumer deposits up to $250,000 and $500,000 on joint accounts.

All Apple Bank CDs come with a minimum deposit requirement of $1,000.

APY = Annual Percentage Yield

The CD rates above were surveyed on May 11, 2023 and apply to IRA CDs as well.

To put the offers above in perspective, the current national average on a 12 month CD and a 5 year CD sit at just 1.54% and 1.37% APY, respectively according to FDIC data. However, the best CD rates from online banks are near 5.00% and 4.60% APY for the same respective terms.

Compounding and Crediting Interest

All Apple Bank CDs feature daily compounding interest that is credited to your account either monthly or quarterly.

By default interest payments will go back into the CD for further compounding but you may arrange to have this transferred to an Apple Bank checking, savings or money market account. This is ideal for those who plan on using interest payments for living expenses.

Early Withdrawal Penalties & Grace Period

If there’s a chance you may need some of your funds prior to the maturity of your CD, you may want to shop around for other banks or credit unions or go with a variable rate savings product that allows for fee-free withdrawals. CDs are designed to provide a fixed rate for a fixed period of time.

If you do need access to your funds prior to maturity, here is what you will pay with Apple Bank.

Apple Bank Early Withdrawal Penalties

CD TermPenalty
1 year or less$50 + 1% of amount withdrawn
1 year or more$50 + 3% of amount withdrawn

Many banks and credit unions have early withdrawal penalties on their CDs, however, Apple Bank’s are quite aggressive. Fees usually chip away at interest earnings, but don’t always eat into the principal quite like Apple Bank’s fee structure could.

If you’re intending to open an IRA CD however, you may be able to avoid some or all of an early withdrawal fee depending on your individual circumstance.

For example, if you turn 70.5 years of age this calendar year, you’re allowed to withdraw up to 20% of the principal from an IRA CD penalty-free. You’ll want to reach out to a certified advisor or tax professional to understand the tax implications.

Grace Period

Apple Bank also has a limited grace period when compared to other banks and credit unions.

The grace period is the time after your CD matures in which you can add or withdraw funds without incurring any fees.

Most banks have a grace period of 10 days. Apple Bank, however, has a grace period of just 5 days.

If nothing is done during this time, Apple Bank will renew your CD with the same terms at the going APY.

They will send you a notice of your grace period prior to its start, but we would recommend setting your own notifications as well if you intend to withdraw or add funds after your CD matures.

How Much Can You Earn With an Apple Bank CD?

How much you earn with an Apple Bank CD is going to depend on the CD you chose, its term and APY as well as your deposit size. Below is a table showing total earnings via interest payments from a handful of Apple Bank’s CDs. It assumes a deposit size of $10,000.

Any of these CDs – both the special offers and the standard ones – can be opened online or by stopping by a branch. If you choose to open one online, you’ll still need to provide an address that is within their geographical footprint to be approved.

Compounding and Crediting Interest

The interest on all Washington Federal Bank CDs is compounded daily and credited back to the CD monthly. For those depositing $10,000 or more, you may elect to have the CD interest payments sent to you each month rather than deposited back into the CD for further compounding.

Grace Period and Early Withdrawal Fees

Upon the maturity of your CD you will have a 10 day grace period in which you may modify the CD or close it out. If nothing is done during this grace period your CD will automatically renew into a new CD with the same term and the going APY at that time.

If you need access to the funds in your CD prior to its maturity you will incur an early withdrawal fee. The fee structure is as follows:

NASA Federal Credit Union of Upper Marlboro, Maryland has some fantastic CD (certificate of deposit) rates at the moment and the credit union is easy to join for pretty much any US citizen or legal resident nationwide.

NASA is federally insured by the NCUA (FDIC equivalent for credit unions) and all deposits are protected up to $250,000 per depositor.

NASA Federal Credit Union was founded in 1949 with just 7 members and $2.00 in deposits. Today, they service 200,000 members and have over $3 billion in assets.

To see if this credit union and their CD rates are right for you, continue reading our review below.

The best yields from FDIC-insured online banks and nationally available credit unions are now topping 5.00% APY and 4.60% APY, respectively, for the same terms as mentioned above, putting Nasa Federal Credit Union among the rate leaders.

These CD rates may not last too long either as the Fed likely won’t raise rates again in the near term following their 10th consecutive rate hike on May 2nd, 2023. You can read more about where we think CD rates are headed in our outlook here.

Bump Rate CD Details

As the name implies, the Bump CDs – both 24 and 36 month terms – allow you to bump up the rate on the CD one time during its term.

For both Bump CDs you will be provided with the going rate for those CD terms (either 24 or 36 months) at the time you choose to bump it.

These products are only beneficial in rising interest rate environments such as the one we’re currently experiencing.

Add-On CD

This CD will automatically renew into standard 12 month CDs if nothing is done with your CD funds at maturity.

Compounding and Crediting Interest

Interest is compounded monthly and credited monthly. Interest will begin accruing on the same business day that you make your deposit.

Grace Period and Early Withdrawal Fees

NASA FCU provides a 10 calendar-day grace period upon your CD’s maturity in which you may add-to or withdraw any/all CD funds without incurring a penalty fee. If nothing is done during this grace period, your CD will automatically renew for the term disclosed at the certificate opening unless instructed otherwise.

If you do need access to your funds prior to your CD’s maturity you will incur a fee. The early withdrawal fees are as follows:

Best CD Rates in Florida – Up to 5.50% APY!

Written by: editorial staff
May 5, 2023
Fact Checked : Dan Nelson
May 5, 2023

APY GUY tracks and publishes noteworthy APYs (annual percentage yields) on both fixed and variable rate deposit products from hundreds of banks and credit unions nationwide.

In this May 2023 report, we’ve published what we’ve found to be the top CD rates available to residents in Florida looking for FDIC or NCUA insured, fixed-rate certificates of deposit. While we do our best to keep rates updated on a monthly basis at the minimum, we advise that you check with each financial institution individually to get updated CD and savings rates.

We should also note that although all of the CDs on this list are available to residents in the state of Florida, many are issued by institutions based outside of the state and/or without locations in the state.

According to FDIC state profile data (download here) there are 256 banks serving the state of Florida with combined deposits of just over $468 billion in Floridians’ hard earned cash.

There are also 131 credit unions with headquarters in Florida serving 7.07 million members with combined assets of just over $108.25 billion according to CreditUnionsOnline.com.

The largest credit union in Florida by member size and assets held is Suncoast Credit Union, serving just shy of 1,126,192 members in the state and holding $14.96 billion in assets.

Credit unions and banks of all sizes within the state of Florida and throughout the country offer federally insured CDs with varying terms, generally ranging from a few months to 5 to 10 years. The FDIC insures bank deposits up to $250,000 per depositor and the NCUA insures credit union deposits up to $250,000 per depositor.

Generally speaking, with fixed-rate CDs, the longer you lock up your funds (i.e. the greater the term) the higher the APY you will earn.

That said, savings rates – both fixed and variable – at banks and credit unions are generally correlated to Federal Reserve rates which are now anchored between 5.00% and 5.25% following the Fed’s latest rate hike on May 2nd. The Fed, however, is not expected to raise rates during their next meeting in June, but will keep a close eye on inflation and jobs data until then. You can read more about where we think CD rates are heading in our CD rate forecast.

Below is our report on the best CD Rates in Florida for the month of May 2023.
