• Bonus will be credited on the next business day after CD is opened and funded.
• Early withdrawal penalty applies and bonus amount will be deducted from CD if closed prior to maturity date.
• Fee incurred could reduce earnings.
• Limited-time offer.
• All new accounts are subject to approval.
• Programs, services, rates, terms and conditions are subject to change at any time without notice. ©2018 VyStar Credit Uni
• All bank account bonuses are treated as income/interest and as such you have to pay taxes on them

Avoiding Fees

These CDs have no fee to worry about. If the CD is closed before maturity you will lose the bonus and also be subject to early withdrawal penalties.

Our Verdict

You can view the rates they are offering here. This is a bad deal, let’s take a specific look to show why. If you put $5,000 into a 12 month CD you’d get a $10 bonus and earn 1.15% APY, other CDs are offering 2.1% APY.

• Total earned with VyStar Credit Union: $10 bonus + $57.5 interest earned ($67.5 total)
• Total earned with 2.1% APY CD: $105 total

It doesn’t get any better as you move tiers either. For a list of high interest accounts, click here. For a list of savings bonuses we do recommend click here.
