How does a CD work?

Certificates of deposits are bank deposit products that hold your funds for a set period of time. In exchange, the bank pays you a fixed annual percentage yield, or APY, making CDs a safe, reliable way to grow your money.

CDs are different from savings accounts since the money must remain untouched for the entirety of their team or risk penalty fees or lost interest on your money.
