About

How Rate Finder works

Plain-English guidance on certificates of deposit, plus a simple way to request information.

What we do

Rate Finder explains the features that matter when choosing a CD — APY, term, minimum deposit and early withdrawal penalties — and offers an enquiry form for people who want follow-up information.

What we don't do

  • We are not a bank or credit union and don't accept deposits or open accounts.
  • We are not a government agency or an insurer.
  • We don't currently publish live rates or rank institutions.
  • We don't give personalized tax, legal or investment advice.

After you send an enquiry

When you send an enquiry, your details are shared with a financial advisor working with Rate Finder, who will contact you about available CD options. See our How it works page.

How we're paid

Rate Finder may receive a small referral commission from the advisor. Using Rate Finder is free, with no obligation to invest; see the Disclosure page.
