Why would I open a CD from Advantis?
Advantis CDs are incredibly popular because we can offer you something market investments can’t: guaranteed returns on your money*. Certificates of Deposit feature fixed rates and fixed terms – so your rate and your earnings do not fluctuate with market conditions.
Here are a few more reasons why our members choose to open CDs (and transfer funds from other banks and credit unions to an Advantis High-Growth CD):
- Safe, secure savings sprints make your cash work harder and smarter
- Choose a term that works for you – from 6 to 60 months
- Big balances are not required – open a CD with $500 (or more)
- FREE – no monthly fees, ever
- The more you deposit into a CD, the better your interest rate
Enjoy peace of mind knowing your funds are federally insured by the NCUA, the FDIC’s government counterpart insuring not-for-profit credit unions.
How does a High-Growth CD work?
When you open a High-Growth Certificate of Deposit at Advantis, you agree to deposit a minimum of $500 for a fixed period of time. (In financial lingo, we call this period of time a “term”.)
At the end of your term, we return your full deposit PLUS a guaranteed high-yield interest rate. (Again, in financial lingo, when your term is up, we say your CD has “matured”.) Then, when your CD matures, you have the option to cash out your CD or roll it over into a new High-Growth CD with a term and interest rate that feels most comfortable to you.
We offer six High-Growth CD terms ranging from 6 to 60 months. We also offer an 18-month Bump CD, plus Add-To deposit options.
Review High-Growth CD Rates and Terms
You always want to let your CD mature. If you withdraw your funds before any CD’s maturity date, your interest rate is no longer guaranteed. It’s likely you’ll pay penalty fees, as well. Nobody wants to see that happen.
Lock in a high rate now – Add-To your CD later
Advantis High-Growth CDs feature a Add-To option. In the simplest terms, with Add-To, you get to make additional contributions to your CD so you lock in even more savings at your fixed, guaranteed interest rate.* Learn more about Add-To
To use the Add-To feature and deposit additional funds into your certificate, choose one of the options below:
• Use the “Transfer” feature in Advantis Online Banking to add funds
(If you want to add funds to an IRA CD or if you have not contributed funds to your CD within the past 18 months, you will need to call us or visit a branch to complete the transfer.)
• Call us at 503-785-2528 (Mon – Fri, 8AM-6PM)
• Visit any branch
NOTE: You may Add-to to your CD account as much and as often as you like during the term. That said, even if your additional deposits elevate your balance into a higher CD tier, your rate will remain fixed at the rate associated with your initial deposit for the length of your initial term. Here’s the silver lining: Upon renewal, if your additional deposits have elevated your account and your funds are now in a higher tier, you can absolutely roll over your CD into a new term to take advantage of that new rate associated with your higher tier.**
Raise your rate with an 18 Month Bump Certificate
Reserve the right to increase your Certificate rate! With our 18 Month Bump Certificate, you can "bump" your rate once during your Bump CD’s term to the latest 18 Month Certificate rate. You’ll earn that higher, bumped up rate for the remainder of your Bump CD term. Minimum opening balance for bump certificates is $2,500.
We make it easy to bump—just call us and say, "Hi. Please raise my Bump CD rate today!"
Not-for-profit. All for you.
Advantis Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial cooperative. We are locally owned by our members, and instead of turning our earnings over to corporate stockholders (like banks do), Advantis returns our credit union profits to our community of members. You see those profits in our superior rates, lower and no fee financial products, plus more free membership services.
Learn about our cooperative difference
* This guarantee is contingent on the funds remaining in the certificate for the full length of the term. Early withdrawals are subject to fees and penalties.
** Although you may now make unlimited additional deposits to your certificate account, such deposits will not bump you into a higher bracket for rate purposes. During the term of your CD, regardless of additional deposits, your rate will remain fixed at the rate associated with your initial deposit. However, upon renewal, if your additional deposits have bumped you into a higher bracket you will earn the rate associated with that higher bracket.
